－ Highlights －

＃ Visit areas of Topkapi Palace not accessible on other tours
＃ Hear interesting stories about Palace life and its history from your knowledgeable guide
＃ Tour the Palace Harem with your pre-reserved ticket




－ What You Can Expect －

Enjoy an extended tour of Topkapi Palace and Harem with a knowledgeable guide and spend 3.5 hours admiring the beauty of the rooms and the grounds and learning about the Palace』s fascinating history.

Tour the top areas of interest in the Palace, including those places only recently opened to the public. See the Palace kitchen, where up to 800 cooks prepared as many as 6,000 meals a day during busy periods.

Have a look at the foot soldier barracks, where a beautiful pipe room, private baths, and the ornate prayer room might have convinced you to join their ranks!

A highlight of your tour is a visit to the Palace Harem. This where you』ll find the private living quarters of the sultan』s many wives, concubines, children, and eunuchs, and the sultan』s mother. Learn about the complicated politics of the sultan』s private life, such as how a concubine might graduate to be a favorite and, if she was lucky, to official consort. Discover why eunuchs and crown princes were the only men allowed in this area.

As entrance to the Harem requires an extra ticket, few visitors see the Harem at all, but with your pre-reserved ticket you』re sure to enjoy this part of your experience.

Visit all the general access areas of the Palace as well. Learn why the Audience Room was the most terrifying spot in the Palace – if you were a poor performing vizier, that is. Discover the stunning kiosks, set in colorful gardens overlooking the Bosphorus.

You』ll skip the most crowded rooms. Rather than spending your time with the guide waiting in line to see the cloak and sword of Muhammed or the forearm of St. John the Baptist, your guide will provide an introduction to these relics and rooms from the outside, leaving you to visit on your own and at your own pace after the guided tour.
