Beskrivelse

Experience the underground marvel of Istanbul, the Basilica Cistern, with a fast-track entry ticket. Upgrade your experience by adding an informative audio guide.

The optional audio guide offers insights into the construction of the cistern, its significance in the Byzantine Empire, and the myths surrounding its features. As you traverse the dimly lit passageways, you will come across the iconic Medusa head columns and a vast body of water mirroring the ancient architecture.

    The experience itself is great. Worth the money. But we didn't receive the QR codes and the link for the audio guide in our email in advance. I had to contact the local supplier via WhatsApp to get them. It was a bit stressful for all of us.

    De ingang is met QR code. Wij hebben deze niet ontvangen. De mensen aan de basilica Cisterne hebben voor ons moeten bellen naar de organisatie om een toegangscode te verkrijgen.
