Topkapi Palace: The Heart of Ottoman Power
Begin your visit at the famous Topkapi Palace, the heart of the Ottoman Empire for over 400 years. As you explore the grand courtyards and beautiful rooms, you’ll step back into a time of sultans, concubines, and royal life. The palace’s Harem, often a mystery, gives a rare look at the private lives of the sultans and their families. With a skip-the-line ticket, you’ll avoid the crowds and get right into the experience. After a brief introduction from your guide, you can explore at your own pace.
Topkapi Palace Hosted Entry
Enhance your experience with a guided tour that brings the palace’s history to life. Experience the 20-minute hosted entry tour with an English-speaking guide who will lead you through the palace’s most significant areas, offering fascinating insights into its rich history.
Dolmabahce Palace: A Blend of Ottoman and European Grandeur
Next, venture to the shores of the Bosphorus to explore the opulent Dolmabahce Palace, a stunning example of 19th-century architecture that beautifully marries Ottoman and European influences. As you step into this architectural masterpiece, you’ll be greeted by the grandeur of its halls, adorned with the world’s largest collection of Baccarat and Bohemian chandeliers. Your skip-the-ticket-line online QR ticket grants you direct access to both the palace and its exclusive Harem section, where you can explore at your leisure.
