My ticket contained the information that the group gathers near the clock tower, although the meeting point was in front of the gates, before security check. The excursion (good) lasted 30 minutes, standing exactly on one point in front of the palace. Palace provided free audio guides.

Worst ever. We were told to meet someone in red coat and umbrella near the locations clock tower at 10 am. Easy to do. However no one showed up. So I was stuck buying tickets at gate. In all my travels this is a new one on me. I’m not sure they are legitimate tour guide.

The ticket, which is very expensive, contains many uninteresting features that are forcefully included in the ticket cost. Moreover, at the ticket offices it turns out that this ticket cannot be used (e.g. Hagia Sophia, Hagia Sophia Museum, etc.). The scandal was the situation when, despite having this ticket, I still had to stand in a long queue to Hagia Sophia and additionally spend 25 euros on another ticket!!!!! The Archaeological Museum is 2/3 under renovation and is inaccessible, which is not mentioned on the website or in the guide. When I asked him at the museum how many hours it would take us, he said it had 3 huge parts and 9 hours. However, it was mostly closed and I finished the tour after an hour. Didn't the guide know about this??? Mr. Hasan, a great guide, talks very interestingly about the monuments. To sum up: it is not worth buying the Istanbul Ticket Pass.
