Offices and business hotels
Ataşehir on the Asian side is one of Istanbul's business districts, home to the Istanbul Finance Centre, company head offices and business hotels. We drive to any address in the district at the same fixed price. Companies can pay by monthly invoice: send your company name and tax details with the booking or over WhatsApp.
The drive from IST
From IST the road crosses the Bosphorus by one of the bridges, and that is where traffic builds up on weekday mornings and evenings. Allow extra time before a meeting. For a full day of meetings, our chauffeur service keeps a car and driver with you for 8 or 10 hours.
Is Sabiha Gökçen closer?
Much closer: Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) is about 28 km from Ataşehir and the ride does not cross the Bosphorus, from €38 per car. If your company books your flights, SAW is worth comparing; see the Sabiha Gökçen price list.
