Our Tuzla car rental point is on the waterfront at Balıkçılar Sokak, next to the marina. It is our easternmost point in Istanbul: about 19 minutes from Sabiha Gökçen Airport and about 1 hour 4 minutes from Sapanca.
Heading for Sapanca, Kartepe, Bursa or Ankara? Starting in Tuzla puts you on the motorway without crossing the city. The airport is close by too, so it works well on travel days. Tuzla and İçmeler stations are on the Marmaray line; we confirm the meeting point by phone if you arrive by train.
| Destination | Approx. time (no traffic) |
|---|---|
| Sabiha Gökçen Airport | 19 min |
| Kadıköy | 32 min |
| Sapanca | 1 h 4 min |
We also deliver across Tuzla, including the shipyard area and İçmeler, free on rentals of 3 days or more. See all models on our rental cars page.
