This guy is working here and I believe I was seriously overcharged. The ticket price was clearly stated as €30 per ticket, and the payment options were Turkish lira or card. I decided to pay in cash. I bought two tickets, which should have cost €60 in total. However, he charged me 4,300 TL, which was approximately €76 at the time. This means I was charged around €16 more than the advertised price. I believe this was an unfair and misleading charge, especially because I paid cash and was not informed about any additional fee or different exchange rate before paying.
Bought the ticket from that agency. Service was great but unfortunately yesterday, there wasn’t any like to get a ticket and very short to the elevator. Audio guide is multilingual and very interesting.
