Karaköy/Kadıköy Ferries36
Why locals love it
Ferries are the most popular form of public transport in Istanbul for one simple reason – if you’re a local, you’re always in a hurry except when you’re on a ferry travelling from one side of the city to the other. You have around 20 minutes to enjoy amazing views of the Bosphorus over a cup of Turkish tea.




Why you should visit it
Not only are ferries part of Istanbul’s identity and good public transport options, they’re also a great way to do some sightseeing, with terminals near Topkapi Palace, the Maiden's Tower and the Galata Tower.
Special tip
The most picturesque time to take the ferry is at dusk.
Don't forget to have a cup of tea!
