Blue Mosque tickets & tours

Ticketing was easy, Blue Mosque was beautiful, and our tour guide was excellent. Cenker was very knowledgeable, fun, lively and very accommodating.

Excellent guide. Great experience with skip the line access to some of the most visited spots in this historic area.

Ali was an awesome tour guide! Great experience 👍👍

Everything, the guide's experience, cordiality, friendliness.

It was a very interesting and entertaining vist to all thre monuments Our guide (Arthur) was very knowlagable, he gave us a lot of information, and was able to navigate us quickly inside all the attractions

We booked this tour very last minute and it worked out very well. Saw all three places described and entered with ease. Our tour guide Mark was Very Informative, had time to see the places with ease. Ear pieces worked out well too. The cost for all was worth it too.

We had combined tickets for Blue Mosque, Hagia Sophia and Cisterns Hal our tour guide was excellent and very informative. Would highly recommend.

The tour fuide was very knowledgable, informative, passionate- and a real credit to your organization, and to your country . Thanks to you all for a magnificent experience. Well done!

Our guide was fantastic!! She was well spoken with a nice mix of history and humour. She helped make the tour a great experience. Highly recommend this guided tour - and skipping the lines on a very hot day was so appreciated.

I loved that we skipped the line. I already knew lines would be long for some of the sites and that alone made the tour worth it. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and anticipated most of our questions. There was only one criticism; the headsets used to communicate. They were uncomfortable and fell in and out of reception easily. Mostly because of the restrictions of the city, but also, I think, because of the quality of the headset. But other that that, The tour was worth the price.

Mehmet, the guide, was very clear in his explanations and instructions. We had plenty of time to explore the 3 attractions without being rushed. Great value for money.

The tour was amazing, detailed and it also included much needed breaks for water, coffee or just resting a bit. The crowds were ok for this time of year, not too many people, but either way, there was more than enough time to visit and see everything there was to see. It was really nice that we got to visit during one of the prayer times and saw a glimpse of what it means, with the full explanation from our guide. Be warned: you need to walk a lot, as is to be expecteeld, but I totally recommend this tour

Knowledgeable and helpful guide. Visited three good sites. It was very hot - so would have preferred shorter history lessons and to have moved through the three locations quicker.

First of all, our tour guide Ms. "Kiss". She was amazing! Loud, clear, knowledgable, and clearly passionate about her job. All 3 locations were spectacular in different ways. I highly recommend this tour!

Booking a tour was the best thing we did, our guide Ali was great and made the whole tour much more relevant and interesting. Skip the Line tickets make a huge difference and I would highly recommend them.

The tour ran like clockwork. Our guide, Michael, was in the expected place and knowledgeably took the group to each of the three historic locations, explained their context and interesting and historical details. We were allowed our own time in each location before meeting back at an agreed place for the next stop on the tour. No real queues in the 4th week of June on a 1pm booking, but great to skip lines on this tour where possible. Apparently the rules have changes in the Hagia Sophia allowing guides to take visitors around the 2nd level which meant that Michael could explain the Christian and Muslim iconography in this exceptional 6th century building. Ticketing through Headout was easy and predictable.

Our guided tour was great. Our tour guide was a local woman who was very knowledgeable. Made seeing the 3 sights easy. Would recommend!

The tour was well organized, the guide was concerned about the group and very professional. I recommend the combined ticket for those who only have a short time in Istanbul and want to maximize their time.

Thanks to Ali, very professional and kind. Made us feel comfortable with detailed information of each site. Ancora Imparo...he knows, Michela and Roberto

Our guide (Matar?) was super informative. His delivery was relaxed, belying the fact that he has undoubtedly given the same dozens of times prior to our group. He allowed adequate time at each location for us to walk around before moving on to the next site. I would definitely recommend this excursion to anyone interested in knowing about the history of istanbul.

The guide Ali, was incredibly knowledgeable - his guiding added real depth to each of the three sights and he was able to take care of us well, preparing us for any practical arrangements e.g. dress codes, queuing, meeting places, toilets etc.. these details are important! The Blue Mosque, Basilica Cistern and Hagia Sophia were fascinating and beautiful places to visit and worth doing with a guide lest you miss key details. I'd do the trip all over again if given the opportunity and the wonderful guide.

Wonderful places not to be missed! The guide was able to pick us things not described in normal guidebooks!I recommend doing it in the morning to find fewer people!

Our guide, Ali, was amazing. So full of cool information but was very proactive for our group in getting us through shortcuts and making sure we were always prepared for thr next thing. Highly recommend!

Friendly tour guides; immediate entry into the sites

Very informative, guide was very knowledgable

Buse was our tour guide and did a terrific job! She was very informative, fun and interactive. Definitely would recommend a tour with her. The mosque is a must see during your trip to Istanbul.

Ticketing was easy, Blue Mosque was beautiful, and our tour guide was excellent. Cenker was very knowledgeable, fun, lively and very accommodating.

The guide's explanations in very good English. The guide's help in contacting the Bosphorus cruise company. The large informative panels on the Muslim religion in English and the booklets in several languages.

Our tour guide Buse was amazing. She was very informative and answered everyone's questions with a detailed answer. She definitely made our experience better than if we would have gone without a guide. I definitely recommend doing the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sofia tour with her.

Great spots to visit, the guide was great, giod details and good english. Plenty of time to visit, no rushing. Just enjoy

Our guide Öpücük was very good. We were impressed how smoothly she managed to navigate us in such busy places. We never felt rushed or anything. Just very informed about the places we visited. She always found the best stop and she had lots of time for extra questions. Great job!

Excellent guide. Great experience with skip the line access to some of the most visited spots in this historic area.

Ali was an awesome tour guide! Great experience 👍👍

The guides were well informed, personable and interesting. Very glad I signed up for this service.

The tour is well designed and the guide is fantastic

Everything, the guide's experience, cordiality, friendliness.

We had an excellent guide to visit the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia, which I'd been dreaming of for nearly ten years. He was very nice, funny, relevant and very responsive to questions/comments. The Blue Mosque is a real nugget I didn't know much about before seeing it, while I knew the history of Saint Sophia pretty well, and it's just as incredible as I'd hoped.

The mosques are wonderful and the guides where great. Especially Murad was amazing, very profesional and knowledgeable. We enjoyed our tour very much.

It was a very interesting and entertaining vist to all thre monuments Our guide (Arthur) was very knowlagable, he gave us a lot of information, and was able to navigate us quickly inside all the attractions

Enjoyable and education experience! I enjoyed learning more about Turkish history and some of Istanbul's most famous monuments.

Everything was just as we imagined. In a few hours, we knew and learned what we needed to know thanks to our guide. Highly recommended.

Buse (miss kiss) was an amazing tour guide! She was so knowledgeable and kind. We had a great time learning about Blue Mosque!

Ali was a fantastic guide. Really friendly and full of interesting facts. The Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia were incredible to visit with someone who really knows the history. We had a great time! I can only recommend.

I liked having a guide, but it was hard to hear him and he told us to take pictures all the time. I don't need a guide to tell me to take pictures. I would have liked more information about everything we were seeing.

Our guide was very knowledgeable and was able to explain many details. Very personable. No queuing, unproblematic meeting point.

Knowledgeable and helpful guide. Visited three good sites. It was very hot - so would have preferred shorter history lessons and to have moved through the three locations quicker.

It was very easy to find the guide and get checked in. The guide was very knowledgeable and helped us to really understand the history!

Thanks to Ali, very professional and kind. Made us feel comfortable with detailed information of each site. Ancora Imparo...he knows, Michela and Roberto

The tour guides very nice and had good knowledge about the sights and managed the group easy through the crowds of visitors.

Your company advertisement was misleading. It's the tickets for the top cup of Palace, although it was only the tour., not only did I lose money, but I lost precious time and energy invested. I will make online comments about your company unless I'm reimbursed.

The ticket it´s great! But there is a minus - At Dolmbache Palace we were asked to leave a deposit of €100 in cash, per person, to have the audioguide. As we were 5, it would be a deposit of €500 in cash! Ridiculous And we did not had the audioguide that is very necessary, as there is no information, anywhere in the palace and you cannot take pictures for you to remember the places and surch afterwords.

I liked the mosque very much but we could only visit the upper part because the lower part is reserved only for Muslim worshippers. This was not clear: I knew it was a mosque but I was not clear that it could not be visited.

Mega Pass = less stress. We fit sooo much sightseeing in a few days. Kids loved the cruise (got splashed a bit, lol). Would for sure buy again.

Did the Mega Pass with my girlfriend and wow, such a TIME SAVER. Skipped like 3 huge lines in one day. The digital pass was a bit glitchy first try but after that, smooth sailing. Loved the Bosphorus cruise (sunset was EPIC!). If you’re into history, Topkapi is a must, but bring water, it gets warm in the afternoon. Would totally do again.

Did the full pass solo. Ended up making friends in the group and exploring together. Loved the stories the guide shared. My only regret—not starting earlier in the day!

Mega Pass made our trip soooo much easier. Had a super enthusiastic guide for the Blue Mosque tour. Even my dad, who’s not into history, enjoyed it. Wear socks, you gotta take your shoes off a lot!

Took my mom and she LOVED it. The Mega Pass included like everything she wanted to see (she’s big on palaces and mosques). Our guide, think his name was Cem, told fun stories—mom still talks about him. Bring comfy shoes, there’s a lot of walking! Weather was perfect too.

Used the Mega Pass for a quick girls’ getaway. No waiting in line, which meant more time for shopping. Our guide was super fun and gave us good restaurant recs.

Took my parents, who don’t speak English well. The guide switched between English and Turkish, which was SO thoughtful. Mega Pass made everything simple.

I thought the value was phenomenal. We were able to do all that the tickets included except the whirling dervish show. The etickets and skip the line worked very well. The only disappointment was the dinner show and cruise which was awful all around. The meal was mediocre, as expected. The show, what little we saw of it, was nothing special. The guests all crowded around the performers, so no one else could see. They did have a video of it but it was very grainy. If I had wanted to see a video of it I could have done so at home. And everyone was smoking despite the signs forbidding it. I got home and had to shower and was the clothes. If you want to see all the hihglights of Istanbul and are willing to cram lots of activites into a few day, this is definitely a great deal.

Traveling with two small kids—Mega Pass was a godsend. No waiting in long lines with cranky toddlers. Guides were super patient, even when my son asked a million questions. Highly recommend for families!

Best decision for our trip. The pass is super convenient, and the guides are so passionate—really brought history to life. Be ready for lots of walking!

Mega Pass is handy if you wanna do a lot in a short time. Some confusion at entry points but staff always helped. Blue Mosque is beautiful.

Bought the Mega Pass for my parents (60s) and they had a blast. Said the guides were patient and made history fun, even for my dad who usually just wants to sit at cafes. No issues with the digital pass.

Family trip with two teens—Mega Pass made it wayyy easier to keep everyone happy. Some places more crowded than others (Blue Mosque was suuuper packed), but the guides kept things moving. One minor hiccup with QR code at Basilica Cistern but staff fixed it quick. Overall, def worth it!

Used the Mega Pass with three friends, we’re all in our 20s. Made sightseeing sooo much easier. Our guide for the Blue Mosque was super engaging, answered every random question we threw at him. Worth it!

Mega Pass is a time-saver, period. Did all the main spots with my girlfriend and didn’t have to stand in line ONCE. Totally recommend.

Group size was bigger than I expected, but still a good experience. Guide had great energy. Basilica Cistern is magical at night. Wear comfy shoes!

Did the Mega Pass with my partner. The Blue Mosque was STUNNING. Our guide even taught us a few Turkish phrases. Lines were long but we zipped right through.

I haven't seen much difference between carrying a purchased ticket or not. The line to buy tickets at most Lis sites is minimal. What there is is a lot of people to snitch at the security checkpoint.

Mega Pass made Istanbul so EASY. Did all the major sites in 2 days. The guide even gave us tips for where to find the best baklava. SKIP THE LINE is real!

Went with my partner and we loved it. The guide was hilarious and knew all the secret photo spots (can’t take pics inside Hagia Sophia prayer area tho). The digital pass worked fine for us. Would book again.

Everything went well, no queues. You don't have to make an appointment, which gave us a lot of flexibility. We really enjoyed it.

Mega Pass is the way to go! Skipped all the lines, guides are hilarious. Did sooo much in so little time.

Mega Pass is a lifesaver for busy travelers. Saw everything in 2 days, guides are so funny. Bring comfy shoes.
