Istanbul: Blue Mosque & Hagia Sophia Small-Group Tour

Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller. Service animals allowed. Public transportation options are available nearby. Suitable for all physical fitness levels. Blue Mosque and Hagia Sophia are functioning mosques and they can be closed to visitors for any reason, even without pre-notice (for a high-level state visit, for example) . Nobody can skip the line at either of the mosques although our guides make it easier and more efficient because they do it every day. . Istanbul has notoriously bad traffic. Give more time to get to the meeting spot than you may have planned. Tickets are timed and expire within 5 to 10 minutes.. Please be advised that it is not possible to join the tour after it has commenced.. Please note that women should be required to wear a headscarf when entering the mosque.. Please note that both men and women should wear clothing that covers their shoulders and knees. Shorts, sleeveless tops, and other revealing attire are not permitted inside.. Tips/gratuities (for your guide) are always appreciated.
