le point de rendez-vous est très mal indiqué avant la visite et nous avons dû téléphoner plusieurs fois pour retrouver notre guide.

Al llegar te ofrecen pagar por visita guiada ya que aseguran que el recinto es muy grande y la gente se pierde (no es para tanto).
Al final pagamos la guiada y el comercial que nos la ofreció se quedó el boleto de la entrada sin cola sin darnos otro por la guiada. Menos mal que el guía que nos tocó era muy amable y buscó la manera de entrarnos igualmente. Las explicaciones del guía están bien, aunque quizás el precio es elevado.
El día que fuimos no había mucha cola, por lo que nos podríamos haber ahorrado este servicio de entrada sin colas.
Si que es cierto que en el recinto hay poca cobertura, por lo que una audioguía por app de móvil no nos habría funcionado.

Maybe this is because April is still shoulder season, but our experience showed us this is a total trap. The staff were very kind, but this is an unnecessary service as there was barely a line to purchase tickets anyway. We also purchased the tickets with the additional harem experience, which again you could buy yourself with no line. Do yourself a favor and just go to Topkapi before 10am and buy your own tickets.
