Cheap Rental Cars Istanbul

Known across the world for its textiles, exports, vibrant culture, and culinary delights, Istanbul is a once-in-a-lifetime attraction. Although it's one of the busiest cities in the world, Istanbul is also quite large, so when you're planning your trip, don't forget to book your Istanbul car rental.

Driving In and Around Istanbul

With roughly 14 million residents, Istanbul utilizes two airports: the busier Atatrk International Airport, roughly 14 miles from the city center, and the Sabiha Gokcen International Airport, which is the quieter of the two. People who booked flights to Istanbul can expect the drive downtown to take roughly an hour, although that can vary greatly depending upon traffic. Once you're downtown, however, most of the Istanbul hotels are within easy walking or driving distance from attractions such as the Sultanahmet District and the Blue Mosque. If you're in the mood to drive and explore the countryside, head to Kabata and catch a ferry to the world-famous Prince Islands.

Exploring Istanbul

Istanbul is a city with thousands of sights to see, from magnificent churches and mosques to modern art galleries, and visitors with car rentals in Istanbul will have better access to the area's attractions. Historic sights include the sixth-century Aya Sophia and beautiful Topkapi Palace.
