We visited Dolmabahce first in morning and Basilica later afternoon. Palace was much bigger than expected and we stayed almost two hours. Basilica Cistern was crowded but still very beautiful with lights and Medusa heads. Everything with booking worked without problem.
We wanted to see places from two different parts of Istanbul and this combo was useful. Dolmabahce is very elegant and has many rooms to see. Later we went to old city for Basilica Cistern. Need some travel time between them but we had whole day so no problem.
Very nice combination. Dolmabahce Palace was beautiful and Basilica Cistern had amazing atmosphere.
Palace is impressive, especially inside rooms. Cistern was also very interesting and different.
