Transfer to Van
Realistic options for reaching the shore of Lake Van
Van is famous for the church on Akdamar Island, Van Castle, Hoşap Castle, Çavuştepe and the Muradiye Waterfall; the Van breakfast is a reason to visit all by itself. Van Ferit Melen Airport has flights from many cities, and for most people flying is the right choice. So a road trip from Çukurova to Van only makes sense on a very particular route: a tour finishing the east of Anatolia by car, a move, or a family with a special load.
From the arrivals hall to Van
- Private VIP transfer: one vehicle from the terminal to your address in Van, with no changes and no waiting at stops. For a family, group or anyone with heavy bags bound for Van, it is the least effort.
- Intercity coach and shuttle: you would get off at a city stop and then look for a second vehicle on to Van; on a long trip that means two journeys and two waits.
- Taxi: haggling with a driver for a trip to Van is stressful; a fare fixed at booking is simpler for most travellers.
Shuttle or VIP transfer for Van?
Shared services like Havamaş drop at set stops, while you need to reach an address in Van. A VIP transfer to Van spares you the queue, the stop and the second vehicle.
