Our family visited Istanbul on a cruise ship. I decided to book this tour independently rather than through the cruise. It was easy to get to the meeting point and meet our tour guide Beritan. It was a small group, and it is so much easier than having 50+ cruisers. He was very knowledgeable and guided us with ease to all the important points. If you're in Istanbul, get a guide. you wont regret

Fantastic tour providing insights into two most grand religious buildings in the history. Hal was an excellent guide, smoothly navigating the queues and bringing us to the most interesting spots.

Non ho messo 5 stelle perché, nella mail di conferma dell'acquisto dei biglietti, era scritto che i biglietti sarebbero stati inviati per email 24 ore prima dell'esperienza. Invece non sono arrivati e ho dovuto contattare l'assistenza e insistere per farmeli inviare subito perché ormai avevo urgenza. Per il resto i luoghi sono molto interessanti e a me sono piaciuti molto, quindi da quel punto di vista l'esperienza è stata indimenticabile. Anche i biglietti salta-fila nella moschea di Santa Sofia e nella Cisterna hanno funzionato benissimo, mentre nella Moschea Blu i biglietti non servivano.

Had an excellent experience . The staff was very helpful. My husband went inside but had to return back outside so he couldn't come back and didn't have a chance to see it but ultimately spoke with the manager and time was so limited and he let the whole family go in again . I can't remember his name but was a awesome person .

Un timo.Mas caro que con cualquier otra página .La guía súper borde, no se le oía nada pero le daba igual ,soltó el rollo a velocidad.Nos dieron un QR que era supuestamente la audio guía que no explicaba nada solo el nombre de la estancia . De todas formas el palacio topkapi no vale la pena,mucho terreno poco que ver

Unlock layers of history inside one of Istanbul’s most iconic landmarks, Hagia Sophia, with fast-track entry and a guided tour.

Getting started

Begin at the Hagia Sophia entrance to have your tickets validated. From there, download the complimentary audio guide app or join your selected guided group if you’ve chosen a tour upgrade.

What to expect

Hagia Sophia

As one of Istanbul’s most celebrated landmarks, Hagia Sophia reveals centuries of cultural and architectural transformation. Step inside this mosque to witness the stunning fusion of Byzantine heritage and Ottoman grandeur.

Features

Architectural wonders: Discover marble jars from ancient Pergamon, follow the paths once taken by emperors, and make a wish at the famed Weeping Column.

Byzantine mosaics: Admire Hagia Sophia’s Byzantine mosaics, uncovered after centuries, revealing detailed portraits set against shimmering gold backgrounds.

Extras

Upgrade your visit to include a guided tour of the Hagia Sophia History & Experience Museum or add guided visits to the Basilica Cistern and the Blue Mosque.

What to bring

Don't forget to carry your own headphones to listen to the audio guide.

Ensure you bring a scarf with you when you visit.

What's not allowed

The prayer area on the first floor can only be entered by Turkish citizens.

No large bags or suitcases are permitted inside.

Accessibility

Hagia Sophia is partially wheelchair accessible via ramps.

Additional information

Due to ongoing renovations, certain sections of the interiors may be obstructed by scaffolding.

During peak seasons, lines may form at security checkpoints. Your ticket does not grant priority access through the security check lines. In the high season (June to August), it might take up to 30 minutes to get in.

Modest attire is required. Women should cover shoulders, chest, and hair with a scarf and avoid knee-length skirts or shorts, while men should avoid sleeveless tops and shorts.

Internet access at the venue is limited, so download the audio guide in advance to ensure smooth access during your visit.

Due to the Friday prayer, the Mosque will be closed to tourists from 12pm to 2pm. For a smoother experience, it's recommend visiting after 4pm to avoid the lengthy security line anticipated between 2pm and 4pm.

This ticket gives you access to the visiting area and upper gallery, not the prayer area downstairs.

Your voucher will be emailed to you shortly.

Display the voucher on your mobile phone with a valid photo ID at the starting point.

Please check your final voucher for the starting point details & specific instructions.
