Sea Taxi in Istanbul
Istanbul has always been the focus of the world's attention since it is a reflection of the centuries-old Ottoman Empire, where sultans and great leaders through the ages built many monuments, palaces, walls and bridges, making this city of great importance at all levels.
From this point of view, the Turkish government has made great efforts to make this city developed and modern. Also, it raced against time in building and establishing mega-projects, and improving and developing infrastructure. As a city densely populated by local and foreign populations, the idea of a "sea taxi" to meet the requirements of the population has been introduced and put in work.
In this article, you read:
- A simple idea and a great solution.
- Click on the mobile application and go.
- A pleasant journey filled with suspense.
- Environmentally friendly, wholly safe and available to all without exception.
A Simple Idea and a Great Solution:
The sea taxi option was not suitable for many Istanbul residents, especially those who have a daily routine; they go out in the morning and board a bus or subway to get to where they work or where they want. So, the municipality closed it for a while. However, it was soon reactivated because of the urgent need for it.
Therefore, the locally produced sea taxi boat has re-launched to reduce congestion caused by the city's daily traffic, and reduce the time needed to reach the desired location.
It is designed and manufactured at Haliç Shipyard (the Golden Horn) and has a similar mechanism to ordinary taxis i.e, 24-hour.
Click on the Mobile Application and Go:
Some may think that they will stand on the port's side for a few minutes until the seaboat comes, then they raise their hands to wave and get on the boat. Well, it is not how it works. We are now in the age of speed and the Internet, where you can access almost everything without moving an inch.
Therefore, Istanbul Municipality launched a special application for these boats called: "İBB Deniz Taksi", where you can make an online reservation by choosing the port from which you will get on, and determining the destination and time. There you will get on the taxi boat according to your booking which, in turn, will take you to the specified location.
A Pleasant Journey Filled with Suspense:
A boring wait until the full bus comes, where there is no place for oxygen. Suffering in the heavy traffic as cars move like turtles, and you have an important appointment. Why all this trouble?
You can turn this suffering into a great cruise in the sea, surf and enjoy the golden sunshine on the surface of pure blue sea. You won't have to wait until the bus comes, race for a seat to rest on during your long journey, or to cling to protect yourself from falling because of the rush of passengers caused by crowdedness.
The Istanbul municipality has indicated that these boats are environmentally friendly, with some boats being electrified, and the rest consume no more than three litres of fuel per single nautical mile.
Furthermore, they are suitable for children's and disabled vehicles as there are allocated places for them. Also, they are comfortable and safe.
It intends to launch the so-called sea dolmuş, which will be similar to the ordinary Dolmuş (minibus), so the cost of boarding will be cheaper and will not be only for high-income people.
Exceptional and Promising Real Estate Investment:
Who says that only areas with infrastructure, such as the subway and buses, are the best?
What if you have a quick and efficient transport to take you where you want, in addition to enjoying comfortable accommodation in a sea view flat, equipped with all the things you need within the best areas for housing in Istanbul?
These boats connect the Sea of Marmara to the Black Sea through the Bosphorus, thus passing through areas near the Sea of Marmara such as Beylikdüzü and Bakırköy on the European part. Adalar, Pendik, and Üsküdar on the Asian part. For the areas near the Bosphorus, the next station will be Sarıyer.
All the areas mentioned have a great interest of the Turkish government as it built their strong infrastructure, as well as the construction companies that compete with each other to build the best projects and residential complexes, and offer the strongest offers. In addition to the multiplicity of types of flats in Istanbul starting from 1+1 to 4 or 5+1, villas, duplexes and penthaus.
