Transportation Options

Public Transport

While the distance is relatively short, the uphill terrain can be challenging. The most direct public transport option involves taking the historic Tünel funicular from near the port area, followed by a short walk. However, this option may be inconvenient with cruise luggage, especially during peak hours.

Airport Shuttle

Shuttle services from Galataport primarily focus on airport transfers rather than hotel connections. The limited shuttle options available require advance booking and often involve shared rides with multiple stops, making them impractical for this short distance.

Taxi

Taxis are readily available at Galataport's designated taxi stands. While the journey is short, traffic in the narrow streets of Karaköy and Beyoglu can extend the travel time, especially during peak hours. Ensure the meter is running and specify the exact hotel address, as some drivers may be unfamiliar with the property's location.
