Transportation Options

Public Transport

While public transportation is available, it involves an uphill walk from Galataport to the nearest stations. The steep streets of Beyoglu can be challenging with luggage, especially during warm weather. The tram and metro connections require at least one transfer, making the journey less convenient for cruise passengers.

Airport Shuttle

Regular shuttle services are not available directly from Galataport to individual hotels. Shared shuttles typically operate only on pre-arranged group schedules and may involve multiple stops, significantly extending journey time.

Taxi

Taxis are readily available at Galataport, but availability can be limited during cruise ship arrivals. Prices may vary depending on traffic conditions, and some drivers might be unfamiliar with the hotel's exact location in the narrow streets of Beyoglu.
