Guided Tours

There are many museums in Istanbul that are essential to the city. Every tourist has to experience them, and Istanbul Tourist Pass®️ is well aware of this. Thus, we have many guided tours for the best museums in the city. When you consider its vast history, it is no surprise that Istanbul has dozens of world-famous attractions scattered all around the city. From mosques, museums and cisterns to historical sites and palaces, this city has its history embedded in its attractions. This is why we recommend that you experience these amazing places with a professional guide, and that is exactly what we will talk about today: Our guided tours in Istanbul.

Benefits of Guided Tours

There are many benefits to visiting a museum with a guide, rather than on your own. One of the biggest advantages of having expert guides during your tours is getting to know the places you visit much better. Our guides will give you in-depth and interesting information about the location, answer your questions and help you with anything that you may have an issue with during the tour.

Another plus is the ability to skip the ticket lines. As you may or may not know, there are usually long ticket lines in the museums in Istanbul during active tourism seasons, especially in the popular places such Hagia Sophia Museum and Topkapi Palace. This is because most people prefer buying their tickets from the entrance booth in these museums, mostly locals. This means that ticket lines can take up to 30 minutes during busy hours. And if you are going to visit a lot of locations in Istanbul – which you should – this can start to add up to hours and hours, wasting your valuable time. But with Istanbul guided tours, you will get to skip the long ticketing lines and get to the security line right away, which doesn’t last longer than 5-10 minutes most of the time. So, Istanbul museum tours with a guide are one of the best things you can do in Istanbul.
