We have discounted prices for kids between 5-12 years!
Please refer to the child price for each pass to see the discounted prices. Even though not all attractions charge entrance fees for children between 2 and 5 years, some of them do. However, in most cases it will be more economical for you to purchase the entrance ticket directly at the attraction than to purchase an Istanbul Tourist Pass for your child. For that reason our minimum age is 5 years old.
Istanbul Tourist Pass is a digital pass that will be sent to you via email.
It depends on the age of your child and the number of days you want to sightsee in Istanbul.
Children under 5 do not require a Pass because it will be cheaper for you to pay the individual admission fees for them at each site than to buy a Pass. We recommend that you check the admission costs and policies of any attractions you will be visiting for children under 5.
Children 5 - 12 years old can get the Child Pass. Some attractions and experiences are free for children under 12 and the cost of the Child Pass reflects that.
Children 12 and over, even 12 years and 1 day, need an Adult Pass.
So, now that you know whether to buy a child's pass or an adult's pass, simply choose the number of days you want the pass to be valid.
Istanbul Tourist Pass has 7 options for validity: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7 or 10 days.
The moment you first use the Pass at an attraction (except the airport transfer), the days of validity start counting down.
The days of the Pass are counted as consecutive calendar days, not 24 hour periods. For example, if you start using a 3 day pass on a Friday, regardless of the time of day, it will be valid for Friday, Saturday and Sunday and will expire on Sunday at 23:59 (11:59pm).
