Disappointed. Definitely running a scam.
I paid online to Trip advisor and followed the instructions, when I arrived at topkapi I had to find the provider all over the place. They are located at topkapi Cafe at the main entrance.
Even though I had a skip the line tickets they charged me another 10 euros in order to be a part of the group.

Not worth the money, it’s just to skip the line which is not there as there are ticket kiosks where you can buy in no time, plus she just left us without any instructions

It was ok. The tour guide was fine, for hos short time with us. It was a BIG group of people. No tea offerred to us at the cafe. You don't get to keep your admissions ticket, once you get onto the Harem part of the museum. . lMy wifi wasn't able to pick up the tour there, brcsuse it daid it didn't recognize my phone number.

This review is about the Skip The Line ticket and not the Topkapi Palace which is worth visiting - see my separate review.

The email I received said to meet at the Topkapi Cafe so we made our way to the entrance, went through airport style security and lingered by the cafe nearest the entrance. Despite asking a great many people with lanyards, no one was able to help. Finally a cafe worker told us that the Topkapi Cafe was outside the palace walls. We found the meeting place next to the Hagia Sofia and got our tickets. We then had to join a long queue to get back through security and walk back up to the palace entrance. We then joined the Skip The Line queue which, although long, was fast moving.

I would caution anyone thinking about a Skip The Line ticket that you do in fact have to join two long queues.

A must see Istanbul highlight.
The Harem and it’s place in Ottoman history is a really interesting tour.
Don’t miss the Relics Room. Artefacts of people you read about at junior school. World class collection. Relics of John the Baptist and Mohammed and David’s sword amongst many more. Truly fascinating - whether you have a faith or not!
Book a fast-track entry, or you’ll be waiting hours in a queue!

Don’t bother. Just a ticket in. Very rushed. No one told me I had to download an information app. The app doesn’t work inside most of the site because of bad internet. Poor guides coped with pressure from a huge group of people trying to get the information.
Just get there at 9. Buy a ticket and get the free audio guide on site. You will need 4+ hours. Huge site and so much to see and long queues for major parts. Don’t booked anything afterwards. Well worth the visit.

This is an excellent service. It is easy to find the meeting point (cafe) if you have access to a cellphone map. When you arrive at the cafe, they give you a receipt and you go with a guide and large group who takes you through security and then spends a few minutes at the map to help with orientation. Be sure to ask about the app if you would like to use it. BUY the version that includes harem and the tour guide will take you without line to the harem and then you can see the rest of the palace. Solid value. You may be able to go with an earlier group if you arrive early!
