    Accesso alla Basilica velocissimo grazie al biglietto salta la fila fatto von Headout. La fila era lunghissima, ma mio siamo entrati su una corsia laterale dedicata a prenotazioni on Line. Grazie Headout, grazie !!

    Access was really quick and easy, thanks to the advance reservation made through Headout. Unfortunately, some structural elements inside have been secured with metal supports. It’s a real shame, but we hope it will be restored to its former state for the public.

    Although there was a lot of construction going on and we almost didn't go because of it, we were very glad we did go and especially glad we got skip the line tickets. Very beautiful and worth it.

    We were able to enter the Palace without waiting in line, thanks to clear directions, which made the visit much more comfortable, and we received a discount on admission to the Harem.

    The tour was informative and easy. We have a knowledgeable tour guide who meticulously explained every details of the area, its history and background. Nice van with perfect heating device that balances the winter cold of the day. The only downside of the tour was the food at lunch time, the soup served were a bit mushy while the rice was a little bit uncooked. The testi kebab served was alright but could have been better.

    It is an amazing ceremony to see. A QR code provides access to explanations in different languages, but the oral presentation is in English. Located in old Istanbul, right next to Hagia Sophia.
