Now a ticket for a laser "show" that runs for 15 minutes costs 250 lira, a visit is absolutely not worth the money. There's something about history in the title of the show, in fact, the pictures on the walls just changed and that's it. They came out in shock and misunderstanding for what such money is. I do not recommend it!
The cost with an audio guide is 800 liras. Excursion for 1 time

If you are not a fan of ancient Roman architecture, then 5 minutes will be enough for you to explore this place. The entrance fee is 500 liras (1,500 rubles). Every 15 minutes, the same video about the 100th anniversary of the Turkish Republic is played on the walls inside the tank. It looks beautiful, lasts 5 minutes, the second episode has not been filmed
You can go for 50 lire, I do not advise you to go more expensive, even to a light show. We went for 250 lira (the price for tourists 03.01.23) and it's not worth it at all. Just a hall with columns and a light show every half hour for 10 minutes.
I went to this cistern instead of the Basilica Cistern and did not regret it. There is no queue, there are not many people, also in the city center, a colorful light show
It's not worth it, the infographics of the 90s have not been relevant for a long time, to run in for a couple of minutes and take a couple of photos is nothing more…
The entrance fee for tourists is 250 liras on 01/20/2023. the entrance ticket to the laser show is 350 liras per person. The show did not cause much excitement. The information that the visit is free is not correct.
The tank is small, but the laser show is great, there are two of them, do not miss it. The time does not always start on time, I waited 15 minutes for the first show and 10 minutes for the second, calculate the time
Prices for tourists are 5 times higher than for locals: 60 liras versus 300 liras. And this is for 1 person.
In principle, they did not go because of the ripping off.
The cistern of Theodosius is much more interesting than the Basilica. Plus, there is practically no queue, and every hour there is a light show, very impressive! It's worth a visit.
The shows are held every hour, they really last 10 minutes. But it doesn't take longer. Half an hour for photos and an inspection, taking into account the laser show, is quite enough. A ticket for the end of July 2022 costs 150 lira (500 rubles approximately), 50 for locals, 20 for the disabled.
I advise you to visit.
Quite interestingly, the modern show in the tank is 1600 years old.
The laser show lasts exactly 600 seconds, there are no 45 minutes.
January 2022 the cost is 120 liras.
There is atomic Turkish coffee upstairs in the cafe, I recommend it.
