Combo: Hagia Sophia Mosque & Blue Mosque Guided Tour with Tickets

The guide, Mohammed, was very good. He was able to make alternative arrangements to see another cistern as the Basilica Cistern was shut on the day of the tour. This could have been made clear at the time of booking (only the previous day.)

Whole experience was well planned despite the fact that Basilica Cistern was closed. Guide offered to take us to another Cistern and it was a good decision. Our guide was amazing! With lots od knowledge and well spoken english.

To be honest, my partner and I felt a little bit underwhelmed by the tour. We did get to skip the line for the Hagia Sophia, but we got a 10 min briefing before we went in and then as soon as we entered our guide showed us to the audioguide area and left us saying "he wasn't allowed to guide us through" which we saw a sign for, however there were probably 50 groups that we saw that were being guided, so that felt weird. As for the Blue Mosque we could barely hear our guide and we only spent about 15 minutes inside, and it was free entry... So it definitely didn't feel worth €112 for two people. We more or less paid that much for just the Hagia Sophia and a 30 minute tour. Overall it was a fun day though and they are definitely sites worth seeing.

Loved the blue mosque, just stunning Hagia Sofia was okay just seemed a bit scruffy and the tour guide spoke for an hour watching the queues build up, I had to leave the group and find a seat. Basilica Costern didn't have enough handrails on the stairs, the room was a bit too dim

Our guide was very committed to the group, made sure everyone was included, explained the history and significance of sites, and accommodated, and even made time to help a couple recover their stolen backpack that was turned into the security station. Note that thieves are everywhere at the main tourist sites.

We had a great time with our guide who not only shared some facts about what we were visiting but also facts about Turkey and Istanbul. Really interesting to have another perspective...and we skipped the line :-)

The flexibility of being able to take one of the three tours the next day to what I had hired. We dpend too much time in the Topkspi Palace and you allowed us to come back the next day forvthe remsining tour.

Our guide gave great information. Had difficulty hearing him at times. Sometimes his directions of where to meet were not descriptive enough. The group was too large. Ended up not using the ticket for haggia Sophia because the line was too long and it was the last stop. I never did receive the email after booking and even after calling support, never received. I did receive the text (which referenced my correct email address) so thankfully because I had an international plan, was able to receive the text and therefore my tickets. So please work on these aspects and you will receive a better rating.

The tickets were clearly not skipped the line I had to queue in every single of the three locations I wanted to visit and the team was not my emails, asking for more information about meeting points and order of the visits..

All the guides were cheerful, knowledgeable and passionate. Even though we sometimes had to wait in a line for a while (there are many skip-line tour groups), I was never ever bored. Thank you so much for making my short stay the best!! I'll be definitely back to this beautiful historic city!

So very well organised and and excellent guides on each of the tours I did - Hagia Sophia, Basilica Cistern and Blue Mosque. Great value for money. Would definitely recommend!

I liked the tour, but I really advise the revision of the tour description. The description mentioned choosing a slot for each visit and that some sites where closed certain days of the week and in the end we just got the tour in one go, which was my preference. But because the description was not clear I ended up by changing other plans. So please be clear about the tour layout. I am starting to notice that everything single activity I book is poorly explained. Is it a cultural thing?

The guides were awesome, beginning with Cenker who was unbelievably patient with clueless tourists who had all sorts of issues (no pass, wrong date, etc). His tour to the Hagia Sophia was great. He and the other guides were professional and cool handling that, then enthusiastic in their guiding. They were informative and funny when appropriate. They each answered all the questions from tourists. The guide (forget his name) in the Cistern was excellent, as was Mohammed to the Blue Mosque. They each did their best to ensure that our group did not have to wait and had a great experience.

the guide was very punctual, helpful, and really makes sure we get enough time to take photos and explained so many interesting things about the landmarks, he even cater with people who got curious about the Turkish bath, definitely knows what he is doing and definitely would rate him 10/10!

Our guide was disinterested and unenthusiastic. He did not come to the Hagia Sofia with us because he said guides were not allowed in. There were a lot of people accompanied by guides.

We booked a combo tour to visit Aghia Sofia, the Sultanahmet Mosque and the Basilica Cistern and it was truly a great experience. The staff and our tour guides were passionate and kind and did not treat us as tourists but as friends, sharing their knowledge about the city and its wonders. Keep going to all the guides who take care of this tour, your job is well appreciated and you are doing it so well!! Also the organisation was great, with the possibility to visit the various structures in different time slots close of separate from each other. Would surely recommend this experience!

Well organized tour, very knowledgeable guide. Only downside is that the entrance to Hagia Sophia is only for the upper part of the basilica and not the lower part.

The guide was knowledgeable and provided interesting explations of the mosques and of the cistern. The places are awesome.

I really loved everything about it. You have amazing guides that are able to explain every detail and answer all the questions

Very well organized visit full of details and trivia about the sites visited. Excellent tail hop at the basilica cisterna! Perhaps I would equip guide and group with earphones to allow everyone to hear the explanations; verbally, using rather low tones because of the sacredness of the sites, it is difficult to fully hear the guide's explanations
