Highlighted reviews from other travelers
The Hagia Sophia is absolutely stunning and this experience really does help you skip the very long ticket queue. You still have to wait in the long line for security so make sure you plan time in for this. It's also pretty chaotic where you pick the tickets up from but overall it works well. Audio guide inside with free wifi is really interesting.
A stunning mosque. Get there early there were very few people inside when we started viewing at 9:00am.
