The Welcome Card we took from Headout was most helpful. The guided tours were really good. Our guide, Mr. Hakan was really nice and would explain everything in details and answer all our questions. The card had free rides on all public transport and also entries to a lot of places so we didn't have to stand in queues anywhere. It also included, hop on hop off Bosphorus Cruise. I highly recommend to buy this card before visiting Istanbul.

That was fantastic. Anyone who is here should not miss it. Do the balloon ride and you'll see that it's an experience of a lifetime. The team was great. They were friendly, helpful, patient, hospitable and very knowledgeable. They did everything they could to make it an unforgettable experience for the tourists. The price was very fair, considering the huge organization behind it, which a tourist hardly notices. I can only say, do it and you will agree with me.

The meeting place and time for the Hagia Sofia tour was well explained, however, how and where to get the additional tickets and tours was a challenge as this information is never provided with the booking. Thanks to Mehmet, we were able to see all the sights.

I'll tell you about the monuments one by one: Hagiasofia: great guide with lots of anecdotes and a real knowledge of istanbul and its history. Small downside: the guide didn't come back with us for the tour. The monument is explained from the outside. Blue Mosque: The visit lasted literally 7 min. There's no point in paying for a visit to a building that's free, given the lack of explanations. Topkapı Palace: rather mixed opinion. The guide spoke English with a strong Turkish accent, which made it very difficult to understand. The monument is incredibly beautiful. I think it would be preferable to visit in smaller groups. Tip: Book the tours individually without the Blue Mosque.

Great service and above all very uncomplicated. Thanks to the skip the line, you are guided to the harem and can explore les from there with the audio guide on your cell phone. Really easy and with free time management once you are inside. The tour starts on time, so you should be there at least 10-15 minutes early. You also have to get the voucher, which you can get at the Topkapi Café.
