An Excellent tour with a knowledgeable guide!

Visiting Hagia Sophia was made easy with the help of a knowledgeable guide who spoke English fluently. Despite the large group of over 60 people, the tour was well-organized with three guides to split the group. The only downside was waiting in the security line, which was unavoidable. Overall, the experience was enjoyable and informative.

Below my expectation!

Although the guide was pleasant and engaging, my experience at Hagia Sophia fell short of my expectations. Despite anticipating a bypass of the main waiting line, I found myself waiting in it nonetheless. Additionally, I was disappointed that I was unable to explore other areas of the monument.
