The ticket, which is very expensive, contains many uninteresting features that are forcefully included in the ticket cost. Moreover, at the ticket offices it turns out that this ticket cannot be used (e.g. Hagia Sophia, Hagia Sophia Museum, etc.). The scandal was the situation when, despite having this ticket, I still had to stand in a long queue to Hagia Sophia and additionally spend 25 euros on another ticket!!!!! The Archaeological Museum is 2/3 under renovation and is inaccessible, which is not mentioned on the website or in the guide. When I asked him at the museum how many hours it would take us, he said it had 3 huge parts and 9 hours. However, it was mostly closed and I finished the tour after an hour. Didn't the guide know about this??? Mr. Hasan, a great guide, talks very interestingly about the monuments. To sum up: it is not worth buying the Istanbul Ticket Pass.

The tour guide was friendly and welcoming. And you have enough time after to visit the museum on your own in quiet. He gives you some informations before that makes it somehow special and easier... Show more

This is a great pass for guided tours and the Bosphorus dinner. There's quite alot of options and depending on how long you'll be in Istanbul you won't use all. Be mindful that some tours aren't... Show more

This is a great pass for guided tours and the Bosphorus dinner. There's quite alot of options and depending on how long you'll be in Istanbul you won't use all. Be mindful that some tours aren't going ahead because the venue is closed.
