Airport travel guide
Get your rental car at Istanbul Sabiha Gokcen Airport! Then drive to the city to start exploring. Istanbul’s historic Old City, Sultanahmet, is filled with beautiful Byzantine and Ottoman architecture; Galata, with all its bars and restaurants, is the hippest place in town; and Bosphorus, situated on the European bank of the Bosphorus Strait, has beautiful gardens, palaces, and bohemian neighborhoods like Besiktas.
Visit Istanbul’s mosques and basilicas, and make sure you simply walk the city streets to get a feel for local life. Check out the small markets, the hamams (Turkish baths), and nargile (water pipe) cafés, too. When you’re ready for a break from the city, take your rental to the port and hop on a ferry to Princes’ Islands where you’ll find pine gardens, wooden mansions, and a very calm, relaxed atmosphere.
Istanbul’s a fascinating destination, but with a longer term car rental you can explore even more. You can drive along the Black Sea coast, head to beautiful Northeast Turkey to explore its lakes and mountains, or go to neighboring Bulgaria and other Balkan countries. Depending on your car provider, you may even be able to pick up your rental car at Istanbul Sabiha Gokcen Airport and drop it off in a different location. Start planning your holidays today!

These are three of the most interesting attractions in Istanbul:
- Hagia Sophia. Originally built in the 6th century as an Eastern Orthodox cathedral in Constantinople (now Istanbul), Hagia Sophia is a masterpiece of Byzantine architecture. It later served as a mosque under Ottoman rule, then as a museum, and now as a mosque again. It is known for its massive dome, intricate mosaics, and historical significance as a symbol of both Christian and Islamic heritage.
- Grand Bazaar. The Grand Bazaar is one of the oldest and largest covered markets in the world, with a history dating back to the 15th century. This bustling and labyrinthine market is famous for its diverse array of shops and stalls offering everything from textiles, jewelry, and ceramics to spices and carpets, making it a captivating and vibrant destination for shoppers and tourists alike.
- Galata Tower. An iconic medieval stone tower, it offers breathtaking panoramic views of the city and the Bosphorus Strait. Originally built in the 14th century, it has served various purposes throughout history, including as a fire lookout and observatory, and today it stands as a popular tourist attraction and symbol of Istanbul's rich history.
