Transportation Options

Public Transport

Public transportation from Galataport involves multiple steps and can be challenging with luggage. Travelers need to take the tram from Tophane to Sultanahmet station, followed by a 10-minute walk through narrow streets. While economical, this option requires managing stairs and crowded vehicles, particularly during peak hours.

Airport Shuttle

Shared shuttle services from Galataport operate on fixed schedules and drop passengers at central points rather than directly at the hotel. This means additional walking through Sultanahmet's historic streets with luggage, which can be particularly challenging given the area's hillside location.

Taxi

While taxis are readily available at Galataport, finding drivers willing to use the meter during peak cruise ship arrivals can be challenging. The route through busy tourist areas often faces congestion, and drivers may not be familiar with the specific location of Antis Hotel in the back streets of Sultanahmet.
