Questions people ask
- Is it wheelchair accessible?
- Not fully. There is a lift, but the last part to the observation balcony is a flight of stairs. Ask us before you book and we will tell you what the tower allows today.
- When is the view best?
- Late afternoon, and the balcony is busiest then. It is narrow, so a morning ticket is calmer if you want to stand still with a camera.
- Where is it?
- In Beyoğlu, on the other side of the Golden Horn from Sultanahmet. It is a short walk up from Karaköy, or one stop on the Tünel funicular.
