Treat the Official Museum Pass for 12 Most Popular Museums (TRY 5,810.34; available) as a separate multi-museum product and verify whether it covers your planned visit.
Compare offers ↓04You want a cruise as an add-on rather than tower entry.
Do not treat the listed Bosphorus, Golden Horn or yacht cruise products as Maiden's Tower admission; they are separate sightseeing products.

Good to know before your visit
Entrance
Access to the Maiden's Tower (Kız Kulesi) is exclusively by boat. Shuttle boats depart from the Üsküdar-Salacak pier on the Asian side (a quick 1-minute crossing running every 15 minutes) or the Karaköy Pier (in front of Ziraat Bank) on the European side. Note that museum admission and boat transport are charged separately: even if you hold a Museum Pass Türkiye for free museum entry, you must still pay the local boat transportation fee (approx. 110 TRY / €8) at the pier before boarding. The ticket office closes at 20:00, so ensure you board a boat well before this time to guarantee entry.
Price
Official admission for foreign visitors is €27 for the museum entry (which includes the audio guide), plus an additional €8 boat transportation fee (totaling €35). Turkish citizens with a Müzekart and Museum Pass Türkiye holders receive free museum admission but must still pay the boat transfer fee (approximately 110 TL or €8) at the pier. Third-party packages may cost more due to added booking fees or guided services, and many online tickets still exclude the mandatory boat transfer fee which must be paid directly at the departure pier (typically Karaköy).
Discounts
Foreign visitors aged 8 and older require a standard ticket (27€ for museum entry plus an 8€ boat transportation fee). Children under 8 enter the museum for free. Turkish citizens with a Müzekart and holders of the Museum Pass Türkiye or Museum Pass İstanbul receive free admission to the museum, but they must still pay the boat transportation fee (approximately 110 TRY or 8€ depending on the pier and pass type).
Timing
Arrive early enough for security checks, ticket scanning and wayfinding.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How do I get to the Maiden's Tower, and is the boat transfer included in my ticket?
The Maiden's Tower is located on a small islet in the Bosphorus. The official museum entry ticket (€27) includes the audio guide but excludes the mandatory boat transfer fee (€8 / approx. 110 TL), which you must pay separately at the Karaköy or Üsküdar-Salacak pier.
Can I use the Museum Pass Türkiye at the Maiden's Tower?
Yes, Museum Pass Türkiye holders receive free admission to the museum. However, the pass does not cover the boat transfer, so you will still need to pay the transportation fee (approx. 110 TL) at the boarding pier.
Are mobile tickets accepted, and do I need to book a specific time slot?
Yes, digital tickets with QR codes are accepted on mobile devices. While tickets are date-specific, there are no strict hourly time slots; however, you must coordinate your arrival with the shuttle boat departures and the box office closing time.
What is the policy for children and free-entry visitors?
Children under 8 years old enter the museum for free, but you must present a valid physical passport or ID at the ticket counter to verify their age. Note that a small boat transfer fee may still apply at the pier.
What happens if I arrive late or close to closing time?
The museum is open daily from 09:00 to 21:00, but the box office closes and last entry is permitted only until 20:00. If you arrive after 20:00, you will not be allowed to board the shuttle boats or enter the tower.
Is there a security check, and are large bags allowed?
Yes, all visitors must pass a mandatory security screening before boarding the shuttle boats. Large luggage, strollers, and bulky bags are not allowed on the islet due to the very limited space inside the tower.
What is the main internal bottleneck inside the tower?
The narrow spiral staircase leading to the observation deck is the primary bottleneck. Because the tower's interior is small, queues can form quickly, especially during popular sunset hours when visitors crowd the viewing platform.
Should I buy my ticket from the official site or a partner platform?
Official tickets are €27 (plus €8 for the boat) but are strictly non-refundable. Booking through partner platforms may carry a small premium but offers the benefit of free cancellation up to 24 hours before your visit, which is useful if weather conditions disrupt boat operations.
