If you are considering the Havaist bus or metro to get from Istanbul Airport into the city, compare it with our private transfer service. At Merry Tourism we work on the principle of "private comfort at shuttle price": fixed-price, fully private vehicle, no luggage limit, no waiting, direct to your hotel door. Our biggest advantage over shared transport like Havaist and the metro is the guarantee of travel time and comfort.
Instead of waiting for a bus with heavy luggage, transferring on the metro, and dragging bags around your hotel area — use a private transfer that meets you at the door. For families with children, oversized luggage, late-night safe travel, or group journeys, private transfer is a far more practical and often comparable-cost option.
