About this transfer

Landing on the European side of the city and heading out to Tuzla takes you completely across the metropolitan area to the Asian side. Our Istanbul Airport (IST) to Ibis Istanbul Tuzla Hotel transfer meets you right at the arrivals gate with a personalised name board. We assist with your luggage and drive you directly to the hotel along the Kuzey Marmara Otoyolu without unnecessary detours.

The motorway journey covers 100 kilometres across the northern part of the city, avoiding central traffic congestion along the way. A typical private drive takes 72 minutes from the moment we leave the terminal to arriving outside the reception doors. We track your incoming flight in real time, ensuring our driver is waiting at the exit whenever you clear customs.

Navigating the same route on public transit involves taking the M11 subway and then boarding three separate buses: the 251, 130Ş, and 133T. That trip totals around 152 minutes, requiring three different connections and walking between roadside stops with your suitcases. For local rail travel, Aydıntepe station on the Marmaray line sits within walking distance of the hotel.

Public transport fares accumulate per person on each connection, whereas our private transfer operates on a single fixed vehicle rate starting from €85. When you travel with family, friends, or colleagues, up to seven passengers can share the vehicle and divide the overall cost. We take care of the entire route across Istanbul, providing a direct door-to-door journey after your flight.
