About this experience
We skip the long lines without waiting, because all our tour guides are licenced and licenced guides have priority for ticket line.
The official part of Topkapi Palace is build on 4 courtyard. Each courtyard we stop to get information about history of Ottoman Empire and Byzantine Empire from our licenced tour guide. We also get information about the collections.
At first we see collections at the 3rd and 4th courtyards.
After we finish collections, we move to pavilions. There are 3 pavilions and they are build for the honour of the victories which Ottoman Empire got from the battles.
Finally we end up at a restaurant/cafe to have a break and we finish the tour afterwards.
