Getting from Bodrum to Istanbul in 1 day

Country forums / Eastern Europe & the Caucasus / Turkey

Hi,
I want to travel from bodrum to istanbul next week. I've heard that the bus takes forever but i can't really find much information about the ferry. i was just wondering the best way to get there. thanks

Why would there be a ferry? And even if there was one, what makes you think it would be faster than a bus?

fly

Consider a bus to Izmir, overnight train to Istanbul

There is no ferry, there are planes and bus only. There are severel buses every evening to istanbul and also severel flight from Bodrum to istanbul. The flight are inexpensive and you also can buy yout ticket online. from turkish airlines thy.com and onurair.com.tr plus other airlines.

best wishes
