Topkapi Palace Combined Tickets

Hi,

Does anybody know the website where I can purchase combined tickets for the Topkapı Palace + Hagia Irene + Harem? I'm looking at the official website but they're only showing prices but not the actual link to buy tickets.

I don't intend on buying the 5-day Istanbul museum pass.

Thank you,
Antonette

Someone else might be better able to answer, but I've been twice (once in July and once in January) and didn't prebook - I just bought them at the ticket window on site. It wasn't much of a queue.

PS - we loved the Dolmabahçe Palace as well - definitely worth it.

I don't see a place to buy Topkapi tickets on the official website, either. https://www.millisaraylar.gov.tr/Lokasyon/2/Topkapi-Palace. You can try again, at other hours of the day, to see whether that changes things.

Like Simon, I just showed up and bought my ticket at the site. There was a bit of a line, but nothing really significant. And I know I didn't show up super-early.

For me there wasn't much to see in Hagia Irene. The Palace is huge and can take a full day. It's too bad the tickets are good for just one day, so you have to cram everything into that one day. However, it would be a real administrative challenge to extend the validity and be sure the tickets were not shared.
