Istanbul Super Combo: Topkapi Palace + Hagia Sophia + Basilica Cistern Skip-the-Line Tickets with Audio Guide

Online ticket cut the queue time and let me enjoy the tour which was awesome. The mobile voice guide was exhaustive and easy to use

The Cistern is fascinating, distinctive and well maintained. The line hopping was a boon. The audio guide from the iphone was excellent. Very positive experience

We had heard about this from a friend in Australia, who told us this was a must-see tourist attraction in Istanbul, and he was right. Wonderful, informative, enjoyable experience. Bought tickets online to skip the line and it was worth it. Took some great photos. Highly recommend it to anyone considering going.

I liked the skipping of the ticket line and the accompaniment with a host inside the palace that definitely expedited the access to the Topkapi. However, it would be good to improve the online guide provided because at one point it gets stuck and there is no way to continue with the various explanations. A real shame

The purchase of the tickets was very easy and fast. If I have something to comment, it is the little and small i information of where is the entrance/row of the people who bought tickets online. The Cistern Basilica was amazing, we liked it very much.

I found this combination quite practical. We can access the different sites fairly quickly. It's worth noting that each of these tours is relatively expensive for what they offer. Topkapi Palace is a must-do, but far too expensive for what it offers (note that you have to pick up your ticket before going inside, at a visit checkpoint next to a cafe in front of one of the palace entrances). The queue-cutting cistern is extremely practical, but the visit is not very impressive (allow 30min). The mosque is beautiful, but its history isn't really explained, and it's not at all as impressive as the Blue Mosque opposite, which is free (but more crowded). All in all, I'm glad I did the consisted and saved time, but they're not really worth the detour. For the other two, tickets are available directly from the Apple (Saint Sophie's Mosque + Basilica).

During the connection berween to flights in Istanbul, buying Skype-line tickets allowed us to visit Sainte Sophie Cathedral, the Basilica citerne and the blue mosque. Those monuments deserve the visit. We enjoyed also the view on the bosphore. Much better than waiting in the airport 😉

It was a nice way to get familiar with the way of live in the Topkapi palace, an see it's Splendor . Haram live was more complex and structured, than the romanticized version depicted in films .

An interesting hour spent in the cool underground, learning about the history and development of the city. The beautiful underground architecture was amazing to see, and not too busy.

Skip-the-line tickets but also life-saving, given the queue others had to stand in! the cistern, following the audio guide, is a great experience!

I recommend buying the ticket online to save a long queue. I also recommend the visit to the Cistern. 1 hour is enough to see this magnificent work of Roman civil engineering.

Well-organized tour, with the site very well preserved and with lighting changes that make the experience even more incredible

The tour to the imperial palace and harem was nothing short of fantastic the guide greeted us at the appointed time and walked us all the way inside the area explained the entire tour and then left us free to visit the palace on our own. An experience absolutely not to be missed.

Meeting point easy to find. Quick to receive tickets (once giving the reserve papers of the app) and go inside the palace.

Headout helped to make the visit for all locations seamless, for a first-time visitor. The App came with very clear directions for all sites along with online pdf (QR codes) tickets. This saved considerable time.

Both the Hagia Sophia and the sunken palace were beautiful! It is very worthwhile. And especially for the Hagia Sophia, it's worth buying tickets online in advance to avoid the queue at the ticket office. It's also worth it for the Basilica Cistern, as there are 2 different queues here and the one for the e-tickets was quicker in our case.

The architecture of the basilica cistern is amazingly beautiful, very well lit and with a well organized traffic. It has generously met my expectations. But the number of visitors per shift or hour should be reduced.

Everything ;)) it was well organised

No queues. Impressive construction.
