Route guide

Sultanahmet to Çamlıca Tower

Journey time: 55–75 minutes by public transport · 30–50 minutes by taxi.

By public transport

Tram T1 to Eminönü, ferry to Üsküdar, then M5 metro to Bulgurlu. A short taxi or local bus covers the final climb to the tower.

By taxi

Direct taxi over the Bosphorus Bridge, traffic dependent.

Walking sections

About 8 minutes of walking between the ferry and metro.

The final climb from Bulgurlu up to the tower is steep with no comfortable pavement, so plan a taxi or local bus for that leg rather than walking it.
