While public transportation is available, it involves a combination of walking and either tram or bus services. The uphill journey with luggage can be challenging, especially considering the steep slopes and busy pedestrian areas. Service frequency varies throughout the day, and the total journey time can extend beyond 30 minutes depending on connections.
Shuttle services from Galataport operate on fixed schedules and primarily focus on airport transfers rather than hotel drops. This option requires advance booking and often involves shared transportation with multiple stops, making it less convenient for cruise passengers with luggage.
