It could have been much better

I am sorry to say that this was a very dissapointing experience. The guide had poor english, didn't give any background on the place and limited to visit the different areas and read the panels. That could have been done without a guide.

Very personable guide

We had a bit of a mixup with finding eachother at the main entrance of Agia Sofia, which is quite chaotic, big, and full of people. I would suggest the tour organizers be more specific about meeting point. Other than that, it was a lovely tour and our guide was very personable and knowledgeable. She answered all our questions and definitely worth having a guide to truly understand signficance of Agia Sofia.

Acquista in anticipo è stata una inutile complicazione: abbiamo recuperare i biglietti lontano dall’ingresso al 3^ piano di un edificio e poi dover fare la fila normalmente per l’ingresso
