Review Dolmabahçe Palace and Harem in Istanbul, with skip-the-line entry, 25-language audio guide, grand interiors, and practical booking tips.

“this tour is not with guide inside the Palace . He will give you only a brief introduction about the Palace at the start of tour outside the Palace and then you are on your own . I think if you really want to know about the things you see inside the Palace better to take one with audio guide .”

★★★★★★★★★★3.5 · 52 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $90

Review of Istanbul’s Dolmabahçe Palace tour, with palace rooms, Atatürk history, Bosphorus Bridge, Çamlıca Hill views, and practical tips.

“The only good thing about the tour was that we did not get to stand in line for the tickets. But the guide left us alone with some electronic device to tour the palace. We book these tours for the human interaction. We could have bought the tickets and downloaded an audio guide ourselves. Transportation to the site was very bad too. We departed from our hotel to a meeting point to join with another group in another bus. A completely unnecessary trip considering the time and distance covered. Overall, great palace but you'd be better served if you can get the tickets yourself.”

See Dolmabahçe Palace, cross the Bosphorus, explore Üsküdar mosques, and enjoy a small-group Istanbul tour with hotel pickup.

“Vi ble hentet på hotellet en halv time etter avtalt tid og kjørte i 1 time uten å få noe informasjon. Kjørte forbi Dolmabachce Palace hele veien til den asiatiske siden for så å snu å kjøre tilbake til Dolmabachce Palace. Besøket på Camlica Hill ble bare avlyst, og omvisningen på Dolmabachce Palace ble redusert til ca. 1 tim. begrunnelsen var at det skulle arrangeres en middag for presidenten den dagen. Vi fikk ingen informasjon på forhånd om at turen ble vesentlig forandret. Vi betalte 35 euro for å sitte i en ukomfortabel varm bil i 2 timer og fikk 1 times amputert omvisning.”

“Don't let the low reviews on Viator fool you, this company is one of the top-rated tour companies on TripAdvisor with thousands of reviews! We ended up having a private tour of Dolmabahce Palace as no one else booked the tour and an amazing boat cruise right after! The guides are very knowledgeable and interesting to listen to, and the boat is a proper modern yacht with comfortable seating and good bathrooms!”

Visit Istanbul’s Basilica Cistern and Dolmabahçe Palace with flexible three-day entry, skip-the-ticket-line access, Harem admission, and audio guide.

“El Palacio Dolmabahçe, sin lugar a dudas, es uno de los clásicos que no puede faltar en el viaje a Estambul. Vale la pena visitarlo, sacarse una foto en "La Puerta al Cielo" y tomarse una cafecito en la cafetería del jardín. La modalidad del E-pass fue estupenda, y poder saltarse la cola en temporada alta es super recomendable. Obtener el audio-guía fue super sencillo si contabas con tu ID/DNI/Pasaporte.”
