Taxi is the fastest and convenient way to leave the Atatürk airport. It’s a very good option if you’re travelling with your family and luggage.
Just like with Efendi Travel service, traveling from the airport to Taksim by taxi can make you get stuck in traffic for up to 1.5 hours during rush hours.
You can find a taxi at the Atatürk airport 24/7 and the taxi driver usually has change, even if you’re paying in euros or dollars. However, don’t expect your taxi driver to have change for big notes like a €500 note.
There is a long queue of taxis waiting for you at the exit of every terminal.
Travel time: 30 to 40 minutes (in good traffic conditions)
