This was my first time in Istanbul, and I wanted to visit as many landmarks as possible, so I’m very happy I found the Istanbul city pass. With the pass, I visited the Dolmabahçe Palace, which was stunning. I also loved the Galata Tower for its amazing views from the top. The Blue Mosque was a highlight of my whole trip, its blue tiles laid in intricate patterns were one of the most beautiful things I ever saw.
When traveling, I always want to see all the must-visit places, and buying separate tickets for each of them gets pretty annoying. This time, I was so lucky that I stumbled upon the Istanbul tourist pass because it saved me so much time! The pass was also very easy to use, I just had to show the QR code on my phone, and I was able to enter the attractions. This was the best top attractions offer I could find!
