Transportation Options

Public Transport

Public transportation from Galataport involves taking the tram from Tophane station, requiring a short walk from the cruise terminal. While the T1 tram line connects to Sultanahmet, passengers must navigate crowded stations with luggage and walk several minutes to reach Asur Hotel. The journey can be challenging during peak hours and requires managing stairs at stations.

Airport Shuttle

Shared shuttle services from Galataport operate on fixed schedules, which may not align with cruise arrival times. These services typically make multiple stops, extending the journey time significantly. Limited luggage space and predefined routes make this option less convenient for cruise passengers.

Taxi

While taxis are readily available at Galataport, getting to Sultanahmet can be complicated due to varying route choices and traffic patterns. Taxi meters may run higher during congested periods, and communication can be challenging for international visitors. Finding taxis willing to make short inner-city journeys can be difficult during peak cruise arrival times.
