Overview
Visit the beautiful Dolmabahçe Palace in Istanbul without waiting in the long ticket lines. This ticket lets you quickly enter the grand ceremonial rooms, the private Harem living areas, and the palace gardens.
As you walk through the stunning rooms, you can listen to an audio guide available in ten different languages. The guide shares interesting stories about the sultans who lived there and the grand events held in the large halls. You will even get to see the famous crystal chandelier—the largest of its kind in the world! Since it is an audio tour, you can take your time and explore the palace at your own speed.
You will see more of the city with a relaxing 90-minute boat cruise on the Bosphorus. During the boat ride, you will hear stories about the famous buildings that line the water.
