Explore more with one pass
Discover more, spend less
The MegaPass brings core sightseeing and local travel into one digital product, so you can shape your itinerary without buying individual attraction and public transport tickets along the way. The Essential Pass focuses on key first-time visitor experiences, including Hagia Sophia, Basilica Cistern, a Blue Mosque guided tour, and a Bosphorus sightseeing cruise. Explorer includes these essentials and adds Topkapi Palace entry with an audio guide for a broader look at the former Ottoman imperial residence.
Exploring Istanbul made easier with public transport
With the included public transportation card, you get 5 rides to cover key journeys around the city. You can tap into trams, buses, metros, or ferries to move between historic quarters, cruise piers, and shopping streets without buying separate tickets each time. A 24-hour hop-on hop-off bus tour and city, tram, and metro maps make it easier for you to join guided routes or improvise your own.
