I am traveling from sabiah gocen airport, to vezneciler by metro. do I need to tap in everytime I board a metro ( 3 trips), or do I key in at the airport, then out at vezneciler. regards paul lynn.
Hi, I am arriving in Istanbul next Fri. I have two days stay until Monday, then I will move ahead and will come back again on Wednesday for another two days in Istanbul. Which card is best option for me? You said that Istanbul City Card per day costs around 400lira. But on Google it says around 140euros. Can you tell where I can find the correct info?
Hi. Istanbul city card daily unlimited pass price is 461 Turkish liras as of November 2024. There are some private companies combine museum entrances and istanbulkart together. 140 Euros prices should be one of them.
Tickets are not valid for an hour or 2. And It doesn’t matter how many minutes your ride took, once you are out of the station, you need another tap to go in. For recharging istanbulkart; It depends on the website. After recharge the kart, you just need to tap it in the first machine you see around the stations. By doing so, your top-ups will be activated. Use istanbulkart mobile App for easier processing. Do not hesitate to ask for further questions. I will be glad to help
Very good, thanks! I will arrive at SAW airport, do I have to get some LIRA before buying Istanbulkart? In other words, can I buy an Istanbulkart using a credit card?
You can exchange some foreign currency for Turkish Liras to have some local cash in your pocket. You can purchase an Istanbulkart using either cash or a credit card at the kiosks or at the machines.
You didnt mention the cost of the city card or if it can be used by more than one person...?
