The journey takes around 30 minutes. Public bus 96 runs to the city centre and there is also a shuttle to the port. The hotel also offers airport transfers for a surcharge. Fixed price airport taxis are available from outside Arrivals and should cost around 18-25 EUR to the city centre. At night a 50 percent surcharge is added. Shared taxis (dolmus) are also available from the airport. All prices subject to change.
Getting around. Istanbul has an extensive public transport network comprised of metros (underground trains), buses, trams, trains, ferries and sea buses. Tickets are available from stations, main stops, or kiosks and should be purchased before boarding.
