Istanbul Airport (IST) to Aprilis Istanbul transfer

Landing on the European side of the city and finding your way into Fatih is straightforward when your ride is arranged in advance. Booking your Istanbul Airport (IST) to Aprilis Istanbul transfer with us means our driver meets you at the arrivals exit with a private name board. We assist with your luggage and drive you along the D-020 corridor straight towards the historic district.

The route covers 52 km, taking around 57 minutes under typical road conditions. We track your flight in real time before you land, adjusting pickup timing automatically if your inbound plane meets any schedule changes. You step outside the terminal and move straight into the vehicle without navigating transit lines or waiting.

Reaching the address by public transport involves boarding the M11 to Gayrettepe, switching to the M2 line towards Vezneciler - İstanbul Üniversitesi, and finally transferring to the T1 tram to Çemberlitaş. That journey requires two separate transfers along with carrying your bags across multiple platforms and street crossings. The HVL-13 airport shuttle avoids train changes, but dropping off at Çatladıkapı (Sultanahmet) still leaves you with a walk to the lobby.

Our private transfer brings you directly to the hotel door, so you avoid carrying heavy suitcases through old city streets. We charge a fixed price of €48 for the entire vehicle, covering taxes, flight tracking, and driver waiting time. When travelling with four passengers in your group, that works out to €12 per person for the private ride.
