Know before you go
- During high season the security check waiting time for Hagia Sophia is around 60 minutes and at Blue Mosque 45 minutes. But don’t worry, your guide will entertain you with interesting stories and facts about Istanbul.
- To enter the Blue Mosque and Hagia Sofia, women must cover their knees, shoulders, and chest. They must also partially cover their hair with a scarf. Men must cover their knees and shoulders. If you do not have a scarf or body cover, you can buy them at the entrance (a scarf is €1 and a body cover is €3)
