Hello, could someone please tell me the cheapest way to get from the airport to Istanbul , out hotel is Tazlik, at 75 Süleyman Seba Caddesi, Vişnezade, İstanbul -.
Many thanks,

You can take the Metro from the Airport for 2.00 Lira and get off Zeytinburnu Station (6th Stop from the Airport) for connection to Tram Line which will take you to Kabatas (last Stop) which is very near to Taksim Square and your Hotel.
After coming out of the Arrival hall. go down stair using the escalator and turn right, look for the Sigh Hafif Metro/Light rail, its about 50 meter walk, you will find tiket counter (Token Coin actually) pay 4 Lira and buy 2 Coins/person which called Jeton) One if from Airport to Zeytinburnu and another from there to Kabatas.
It will take an hour or little less to reach there. Total Cost 4.00 Lira
Avoid the Shuttle Van offers at the airport.

Can't read the address because of the dipthongs etc, but cheapest way to the city centre is metro & tram - see my Istanbul pages.
Which airport?
Please read my transportation tips for both of the airports of Istanbul.
Sorry, my advice assumes you mean Atatürk Airport - the main one.
It will be totally useless for Sabiha Gökçen Airport.
Thank you for that very detailed answer, you went to a lot of trouble.
Thanks for helping out.
It would be Ataturk airport.
Great tips for transport on your site, thanks a lot.
Thanks for your good advice.
are you teeling those comments to me? if you are thanks
Yes, I was thanking you.
Istanbul is a very modern city with a population of around 12 million. Although it is the most densely populated urban center in Turkey, the capital is Ankara located approximately 450 km to the southeast -- in the center of the country. Istanbul is quite large and sits astride two continents, Europe and Asia.
Too much has been already said about sunsets in general and sunsets of Istanbul in particular, no need to describe them....
However the feelings arising when seeing them are needed to be shared....
Some Turkish for foreigners very helpfull when in Turkey..

I saw this right in front of Planet Health Club in Kurucesme. Notice the carving on the wood. It is a huge door and is pretty much unused and left exposed to the elements giving it this patina as you can see.
THE SADULLAH PASA YALI.........Photo 1
Located in Cengelkoy, this mansion was famous for its interior decorations and for its very high value. The original owner, Sultan Abdu lhamit II, was exiled and later committed suicide.
THE KOMODOR REMZI BEY YALI...........Photo 2
In 1390, Yildirim Beyazit built Anadoluhisari, which is the castle on the Asian side of the Bosphorus. This was the narrowest part of the Bosphorus and he built it intending to capture Istanbul easily. The Komodor Remzi Bey Yali was built next to and it was rebuilt in 1917.
THE ETHEM PERTEV YALI...........Photo 3
The famous cosmetic cream, Krem Pertev, was produced in the 1960's by one of the early pharmacists of Turkey, Ethem Pertev. He was born in 1871, and is the second owner of this mansion also known as Sarayli Hanim Yali. After the death of Ethem Bey, his children continued to run his pharmacy in Aksaray, and sold the mansion in 1932 to a ship's captain. Built in the Art Nouveau architectural style, this house has been successfully renovated in recent years.
THE ZARIF MUSTAFA PASA YALI.........Photo 4
Zarif Mustafa Pasa Yali is one of the most beautiful and valuable mansions on the Bosphorus. It was purchased by Kani Bey, the coffee magnate of Sultan Mahmut II in 1800's. When the yali was originally built, it was composed of three sections: the Harem, the Selamlik and the Boat-house. It was originally three times bigger than its present size. In 1848, it became the property of Zarif Mustafa Pasa. The mansion was built on the ruins of a Byzantine monastery. The Ayazma (sacred water source) of the monastery is still in its garden.
THE YAGCI SEFIK BEY YALI.............Photo 5
In the place of Yagci Sefik Bey Yali, there was an earlier mansion belonging to Cemile Sultan, the sister of Sultan Abdulhamit II. In 1905, Sefik Bey, a successful businessman and also the founder of Association of the Naval Fleet, built this magnificient yali. The larger of the two parts of the house is the Haremlik - reserved for women, and the smaller building is the Selamlik – reserved for men. As you travel towards Cubuklu from South to north, you see the 7-8 Hasan Pasa Yali and the Rasim Pasa Yali, recently turned into a boutique hotel.
All of these you get to see on your trip up the Bosphorus, so look out for them!

Q: day boat trip to black sea at end of November? "Hi! I'll be in Istanbul in the last week of November and first week of December. Do the boats still run to the Black Sea for..."
A: "I don't know if they will run then, but anyway they don't quite go all the way to the Black Sea, only nearly."
