HONEST INFORMATION:
First of all it is recommended to book this guided tour for the afternoon hours because of the crowd in the building in the morning(because of the bag controls ). On this tour we are going to just skip the ticket line to visit 1500 hundred year old Hagia Sophia from 6.th century A.D by Roman Empire . It was the cathedral of Constantinople for nearly thousand years .as of 2024 January, it is used as a mosque and partly as museum
Headscarves and long dresses ( to cover legs )are required for women and long trousers for men.
By the way Tickets are not included In this tour -it is in addition . I will get your tickets in advance then you can pay me .
ATTENTION! we can only skip the ticket line . For bag controls we may wait a bit to get inside . ( it is something quite rare as long as there is no cruise ship )
Public transportation options are available nearby. Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap. Not recommended for travelers with spinal injuries. Suitable for all physical fitness levels. In high season it is better to book the tour for an earlier time in the morning as suggestion. Tickets are not included in the tour you can pay when you meet . We are going to skip the line which takes for hours. Licensed professional Tour guide for 9 years experience
The meeting point is right in front of the ticket office for Hagia Sophia mosque ( partly used as museum right now ) .
They have changed the main entrance for visitors . So ticket office is right in front of the first and huge gate of topkapi palace museum - don’t pass through the gate please
