Not what is Advertised in Title - The experience sold in the title is not what you get. Is much cheaper and quicker to buy tickets at the entrance. You have to collect the tickets from the side of the entrance and then get escorted by an agent as a group through into Topkapi palace. For us that meant waiting 35 minutes for the next group to be escorted. Not very skip the line. Getting through was also chaotic as the guide didn't have enough tickets for the group and waisted more time making phonecalls to allow us entry. In total took just over an hour before we were in. The audio guide sold as well is unavailable as you never actually receive the tickets and the ticket QR code is required to access the audio guide. As you are entering as a group and the tickets are with the agent you are unable to stop and receive the audio guide. Booking with viatour is also pointless as the security you believe you get with them is non apparent. They will not refund or offer any compensation when you highlight you have clearly not received what was advertised. Do not book the tickets with viatour they will take the money and not care after. Book at the entrance instead
