Wonderfull show, good sound, great stories. Great activity for anyone.
Excellent Show, The usage of CGI techniques as well with the real life acting took the show to another level
I really enjoyed the show, It was very interesting to get to know some Istanbul icons, that really enhanced my visit of the city.
Great show and good at providing context of the city
Great show informative of some of the history
Nice air-conditioning show. Perfect way to get Get out of the Istanbul heat for an hour.
Awful - venue was hot and stuffy βLiveβ is really a stretch - the performers -2 -of them are hidden behind a screen the whole time. The video production and story telling was boring. Tacky. I think the only reason any google reviews are posted is because they force you into a queue at the end of the show to get you to post a review for a βfreeβ magnet - and people just try to recoup 60 Lyra of their lost money and time for an equally tacky magnet.
Great experience. Awesome view of Istanbul history.
Good live show beautiful costume and music. Good service by the guide.
Wonderful show, Great experience.
It was very good would do it again
It was a great experience. The actors and music were amazing
Excellent Show of the Istanbul Legend telling the entire story of the city
Iβve expected more of a live show, less of screen viewing but it was very interesting show that showed me some legends about Istanbul.
I loved the mix of live dancing with the screen and music! It looked like visuals may have been made with AI, which is disappointing for a place of art
The performance is good but i don't expect the video was using AI and there are only 2 performers, it's a bit disappointing, but for overall show is good (for the way of delivery of the story)
It was good show. Started on time. The female performer was really great.
Very nice i thoroughly enjoyed it. Deffo should do
Great show and wonderful story telling
very interesting and informative
Great show learned a lot from ottoman Empire good show
Definitely worth it. Got through Istanbul pass, Try it
It was an interesting experience, retelling the history of Constantinople from Ottoman times. It helped me understand the origins of this city. The two live dancers amidst the multi sensory experience were a treat.
Very nice presentation the visuals & choreography. Wish the story a little bit more to understand the history better in some segments. But sure it will be a bigger longer production. It will be great
It was my nap time so I was drowsy during the performance. I saw most of it and appreciated the combination of the scenes on the screen and the live actors combined.
Lovely show, definitely worth it. Highly recommend for everyone visiting Istanbul
Loved the show. It was very fun to watch. The performers were really good. A good experience to understand the rich history of Istanbul.
Great show, very entertaining from start to finish
The Legends of Istanbul was a mix of cinema and live performance, with a great sound system. It added to my appreciation of the myths and legends surrounding Istanbul. The Hostess, Kim Yu, was very organized, helpful and kind.
It takes you to the legends of Istanbul, it is enchanting
Apr 2026 β’ Solo This is a very interesting introduction to Istanbul with interesting use of technology. Short tales of the myth and legends of the city. Worth visiting before you explore the city.
The performers are very good and they are so professional i love them!

An original theatrical experience. Approximately 50 minutes long. If you have Istanbul Epass then you should see it!

Very good I enjoyed a lot I recommend it
Entertaining show mixing live performances with animation projected on a screen. It touches on many historical Istanbul landmarks sick as the Basilica Cistern, Maiden's Tower, Galata Tower, Hagia Sophia and Suleymani Mosque.
