Step into one of the world's most layered buildings with your entry already booked. You'll see Hagia Sophia's galleries, mosaics and Islamic decoration, supported by an AR and audio experience.
Full description
This ticket reserves entry to the tourist-access galleries of Hagia Sophia, the former Byzantine cathedral and present-day mosque, where Christian imagery and Islamic decoration sit side by side. The package adds an AR and audio experience, plus museum admission if that option is selected.
Entry is flexible within opening hours and a visit runs around 90 minutes. Reviewers found the historical importance worth the trip despite restoration work, but noted restricted access, a distant ticket-collection point and charges for clothing covers.
