About this service
The official Museum Pass Istanbul, sent to you as a QR code. One entry to each participating state museum over five days, without queuing for tickets.
The pass covers the state museums run by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, among them Topkapı Palace, the Istanbul Archaeological Museums, the Museum of Turkish and Islamic Arts and Galata Tower. It gives one entry to each and is valid for five days from the first museum you enter. You skip the ticket queue, though not the security check at the door. Hagia Sophia, the Basilica Cistern and Dolmabahçe Palace are not part of it. We email the pass with a one-page plan of opening days, so you never arrive at a closed door.
