📖

Full description

This combined booking bundles three of Istanbul's major monuments into one ticket valid for three days from first use, so the visits can be spread out rather than rushed. Hagia Sophia and the Basilica Cistern tickets arrive electronically, while Topkapi requires meeting a host at a set entry slot before exploring on your own with online audio.

The Harem, live guiding, earphones and transfers are not included. Reviewers valued the flexible days and fast entry, but found the Topkapi meeting point hard to spot and wanted more explanation inside the palace.
