Cruise passengers
Arriving or leaving by ship? Galataport, the cruise port in Karaköy, is on the European side: €50 from or to Istanbul Airport, €70 from or to Sabiha Gökçen, in the Eco Van. The cruise port page explains how pick-ups there are arranged.
Questions and answers
Which service should I book for a group of eight?
The minibus group transfer. A Sprinter takes up to 16 people, so eight travel in one vehicle with room for luggage.
Is the 24-hour taxi a separate price list?
No. Night and day rides use the same fares; the page simply explains how late arrivals work.
Do services differ in how the driver meets me?
No. Every service uses the same meeting: the driver at the exit you walk out of, holding your name on a printed sign.
Can you organise a day trip after the airport run?
Day trips are not priced on this site. Ask dispatch on WhatsApp, and you get a quote before deciding.
Can I combine services, for example a V-Class with child seats?
Yes. Choose the V-Class in the Fare Pass and ask for the seats with the children's ages; they are free in every class.
