The Experience

Your experience Visit Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque in one combo, with entry tickets and your choice of a guided or audio-led tour. Getting started Begin at the Old Town entrance area, where you validate your combo booking and receive your entry tickets for both sites. If you selected the guided option, meet your licensed local guide and join your group. If you chose the audio guide, receive instructions on downloading and using the multilingual audio guide app on your own device. Hagia Sophia What to expect Step inside Hagia Sophia, a landmark that has served as a Byzantine church and Ottoman imperial mosque, and is now one of Istanbul's most visited sites.

Take part in a 1 to 1.5-hour guided tour with your licensed English-speaking guide, or use the multilingual audio guide to move through the interior independently. Wrapping up Choose between an English guided tour of both landmarks with a licensed local guide, or a self-paced visit using the multilingual audio guide app. Select the option that best matches how you prefer to explore.
