Transportation Options

Public Transport

Public transportation from Galataport requires multiple transitions. You can take the tram from Tophane station, but this involves walking with luggage for about 400 meters. The journey requires a change at Sultanahmet station, followed by another walk to reach the hotel. During peak hours, trams can be extremely crowded, making luggage handling challenging.

The limited scheduling and shared nature of these services mean extended journey times and potential waiting periods. Additionally, the drop-off points may not be within convenient walking distance to Azade Premier Hotel.

Taxi

While taxis are available at Galataport, securing one during cruise ship arrival times can be challenging. Prices can vary significantly based on traffic conditions, and drivers may take longer routes through congested areas.
