Traffic conditions significantly impact travel times, especially during weekday rush hours and major exhibition periods.
Taking a taxi from Galataport to Tuyap Fair Center can be challenging due to several factors. Many taxi drivers may be reluctant to accept such a long journey, particularly during peak traffic hours. The journey covers 39.5 km through heavy traffic zones, and finding a taxi willing to make this trip can be difficult. Vehicle conditions vary significantly, and language barriers often pose additional challenges. During exhibition periods, taxi availability becomes even more limited due to high demand.
The public transportation route requires multiple transfers and careful planning. Start by taking the tram from Tophane to Zeytinburnu, then transfer to the Metrobus line heading towards Beylikduzu. From the Beylikduzu Metrobus station, you'll need to take a connecting bus to Tuyap. This journey typically takes 90-120 minutes and can be particularly challenging with luggage. During exhibition periods, public transport becomes extremely crowded, making it difficult to travel with business materials or personal belongings.
