Saurabh – United States

Very streamlined experience and saved a ton of time as the lines for ticket at the counter are crazy long. Only hiccup happened when the QR codes didn’t work at the booth, but a quick phone call to the representative helped as she sent in a new set of QR codes via WhatsApp in a matter of couple minutes. Overall, very easy and breeze to use.

Ilke - our guide was absolutely amazing. More than 1 and a half hour of telling many fascinating stories and facts... Giving some insight of the history plus islam. You can go and visit yourself for free ... But then it is just one of many amazing buildings. However, with a guide you can appreciate it way more.
