Hat alles perfekt geklappt. Kein anstehen an langen Ticketschlangen. Absolut empfehlenswert und dringend empfohlen.
A very informative, interesting hour. A fun and humorous guide. Love it.
Istanbul - Topkapi Palace - slightly nerve racking trying to find the Chimney Bisto to collect our tickets but eventually found and procedure inside to collect the tickets went well. Route Guide to the Palace from the Bistro informative and saw us everyone through security. Our other visits with QR Code entry went smoothly. We understand the Topkapi Palace does not have the equipement yet in place to scan QR codes but should be ok for 2026
perfect tour!!
excellent service!
