Très bonne visite de la Mosquee bleue avec le guide, il prend le temps de bien expliqué.
Compramos la entrada conjunta a Hagia Sophia y la Cisterna, nos llegaron el dia antes de la visita. El dia de la visita fuimos directamente a la entrada, solo teníamos unas 20 personas por delante, mientras en la otra cola había más de 100 personas, mostramos la entrada y realizamos nuestra visita. Ambos lugares son impresionantes.
