Fast Entry Made Easy with Last-Minute Booking

Definitely recommend! I purchased my tickets for Dolmabahce Palace & Galata Tower 20 minutes before arriving at the Palace and there wasn't a problem with getting inside. I skipped the way of people who didn't have tickets.

Perfectly Planned Trip Thanks to the Tourist Pass

Amazing! I definitely recommend to anyone who will come to Istanbul! Me and my husband came to the Istanbul on December 1st to spent our holiday in here but we didn't know how to explore here by ourself because it was our first time in here and there is sooo much thing to do in here! After we saw an ad about Istanbul Tourist Pass we decided to give it a try. After we bought the 3 day pass the customer support welcomed us and ask us if we have any plan on Istanbul! Luckily we were about to ask them but they are better than we expected! They helped us to start with plan that what should we do in here for 3 days, and then we went to the Hagia Sophia, Basilica Cistern, Topkapi Palace, Islamic Art Museum and Dolmabahce Guided Tours and we really had fun with the guide's. They are super punctual, knowledgable and helpfull with us and They really spoke english very well! Then we had so much fun on Bosphorus Dinner Cruise and we ended our last day in Istanbul like that. Unfortunately we couldn't attend Galata Tower but im sure that we will definitely be with Istanbul Tourist Pass again for our next trip in Istanbul. Thank you Istanbul Tourist Pass for the best help you all ever did to make our trip so much better!
