About Tuzla

Tuzla is the southeastern tip of the Asian side, home to the marina, shipyards and the Sabancı university area, just beyond SAW airport.

Tuzla sits at the southeastern end of the Asian side, past Pendik and Sabiha Gökçen — known for its marina, shipyards and the Sabancı University campus. It's a long coastal run from Kadıköy but stays toll-free on the Asian shore, and it's handy for university visits or a flight from nearby SAW.

What's in Tuzla

Travelers we drive to Tuzla are usually heading for the marina and shipyards, Sabancı University and the thermal springs. We'll drop you right at the Tuzla marina, Sabancı University, or a coastal hotel beyond the airport.

Famous spots in Tuzla

  • Sabancı University — a leading private university on a hilltop campus in Tuzla — many transfers here are visiting students and families.
  • Tuzla Marina & shipyards — the centre of Turkey's yacht-building industry, with a busy marina and seafront fish restaurants.
  • Tuzla thermal springs — the district's long-standing hot springs, a low-key local spa tradition on the far Asian coast.
Local tip: Tuzla is past the airport, so it's a genuine long-haul on the Asian side — but with no bridge toll it stays cheaper than a same-distance European run. Handy if you're visiting the university or flying from SAW.

Metered-taxi estimate based on the official İBB/UKOME tariff in force since 20 July 2026 — 71,94 TL opening fee plus 47,92 TL per km, with the upper end allowing for the time charge in traffic. Istanbul has a single tariff around the clock — there is no night rate. A fixed transfer price is agreed before you travel and does not move with the meter or the traffic.

Why book a fixed-price transfer to Tuzla

  • A fixed Kadıköy → Tuzla price — you agree the full 35-plus-minute fare to Tuzla before the car moves — no meter ticking, no haggling at the door.
  • Door to door in Tuzla — the driver takes you straight to the marina and shipyards or your exact address — no changes, no walking with bags.
  • The traffic is our problem, not yours — a taxi meter keeps charging while you sit still (the official time rate is 598,90 TL an hour); your fixed Tuzla price is the same whether the run takes 35 minutes or twice that.
  • No bridge to Tuzla — Tuzla shares the Asian side with Kadıköy, so the 35–55 min run skips every bridge and toll, keeping the fare low.
  • Pay your driver directly — no prepayment and no card details online for the Tuzla trip — you settle with the driver at the end.
Honest note: Tuzla is on the Asian side, the same as Kadıköy, so a taxi is already fairly cheap — a fixed transfer mainly buys you certainty, no haggling and a driver who shows up on time. For a tight budget in daylight, a metered taxi or BiTaksi works fine too.

Kadıköy → Tuzla questions

How much is a transfer from Kadıköy to Tuzla?

A metered taxi over the ~38 km to Tuzla works out at roughly 1.900–2.550 TL on the official 2026 tariff (including no bridge toll since both are on the Asian side), and the same figure applies at any hour — Istanbul has no night tariff. A fixed private transfer is quoted before you travel and does not rise with traffic. Send your exact pickup, date and group size on WhatsApp for a firm price.

How long does the Kadıköy to Tuzla transfer take?

Usually 35–55 min depending on traffic and the exact addresses. Tuzla is on the asian side of Istanbul, reached without crossing a bridge from Kadıköy.

Does a night transfer to Tuzla cost more?

No. Istanbul abolished the taxi night tariff in 2009 — a single tariff applies 24 hours a day, so a 03:00 meter reads the same per kilometre as a midday one. If a driver tells you there is a “gece tarifesi”, that is a scam. Our fixed Kadıköy → Tuzla price is also the same around the clock.

Where in Tuzla can the driver drop me?

Anywhere you need — typically the Tuzla marina, Sabancı University, or a coastal hotel beyond the airport. Just give us the exact address or landmark when you book and the driver takes you door to door.

How do I book a Kadıköy → Tuzla transfer?

Send one WhatsApp message with your date, time, pickup point in Kadıköy and your Tuzla address. We reply with a fixed price and the driver's details — no app, no account, no prepayment. You pay the driver directly.
