Some Tips for Guests before Exploring Istanbul


The city has an excellent public transport system incorparating buses, trains, metrobuses, trams, funiculars, ferries, sea buses and even cable cars. I suggest that you invest in İstanbulkart, an electronic purse that can be used on every form of local transport except the private dolmuses (minibuses). You can buy them at main Metro terminals, ferry terminals and transport interchanges and can refill them at machines dotted about the city. For more information please visit : www.istanbulkart.istanbul.

Firstly, I am going to start from the beginning before you land in İstanbul. Please read my tips which I wrote below.

         HAVABUS At Sabiha Gökçen Airport 

Let's start, if you land in Sabiha Gökçen, of course if you are  coming as solo traveller or couple or family without using private  cabs, immediately ask about how to find  istanbulkart  if you couldn't find it , no worries. Ask HAVABUS which belongs to    airport bus company to take you  the best certain close  location to your hotel in a cheap  way   and  this is website of HAVABUS please check service hours : https://www.havabus.com/ but don't forget to buy istanbulkart when you reach your point.

   HAVAIST at İstanbul New Airport 

And if you land in İstanbul New Airport, find HAVAIST which belongs to  airport bus company that will  take you  certain points  in a cheaper way. Of course again, don't forget to buy istanbulkart.

By breaking out of fucking coronavirus, we got our  share. When you get istanbulkart, you need to integrate your HES CODE into Istanbulkart, don't worry it's very simple,

 I'll leave website for you : https://kisisellestirme.istanbulkart.istanbul/
you will use your passport for integration. Everyone has to use her/his own istanbulkart. Before covid, just one person who has istanbulkart, could apply for another but now it changed.
By the way, when you reach hotels or wherever you stay, they will help you how to find  istanbulkart, and also you will absolutely see istanbul card machines.

Let me tell you  in which places   you can use istanbulkart.


 You can use all of public transportations ( buses, subways, trains, metrobuses, trams, funiculars, ferries, sea buses, cable and even you can use some restrooms belonging to municipality.

I think transportation issue is set up, now  we'll move on how to get museum pass card. With Museum Pass Turkey, you can visit more than three hundred museums and archaeological sites that belong to Republic of Turkey Ministry of Culture and Tourism and enjoy your trip through time.


 The pass is valid for fifteen days starting from your first museum and  archeological site entrance. For more information you can visit : www.muze.gov.tr/MuseumPass

Some museums and archaeological sites belong to foundations that's why you have to pay them in cash but don't worry, it's not  expensive, most of them is so cheap. One museum card is valid for just one person. It's personal.
