Ankara → Ankara: key facts

A private transfer from Ankara Airport (ESB) to Ankara city centre costs €50 per car for 1–3 passengers and €70 per van for 4–8. It is a fixed price for the whole vehicle, the same amount you pay when you book. The road distance is 29 km via D140 and Şehit Ömer Halisdemir Bulvarı; the drive takes about 30 min with clear roads, so plan on 30–40 min at busy times.

Where the driver waits: The driver waits in the arrivals hall of Esenboğa terminal, at the exit of the domestic or international arrivals section your flight uses, after baggage reclaim (and passport control and customs on international flights), holding a sign with your name. We track your flight and the first 60 minutes after landing are free; the driver helps with your luggage.

Esenboğa Airport lies in the Akyurt district, about 28 km north-east of Kızılay by road. The drive heads south on the airport boulevard (Özal Bulvarı / Şehit Ömer Halisdemir Bulvarı), a wide dual carriageway that passes Pursaklar and Keçiören before reaching the old centre around Ulus and then Kızılay. Outside rush hour the trip usually takes around half an hour; weekday mornings and evenings bring slow traffic on the approach to the city, and the city's official airport bus line 442 follows the same corridor.

Kızılay is the modern heart of Ankara, laid out around the square officially called 15 Temmuz Kızılay Millî İrade Meydanı and Güvenpark beside it. Atatürk Bulvarı runs north from here to Sıhhiye and Ulus, the older centre below the citadel, and south to the government quarter of Bakanlıklar and the embassy district of Kavaklıdere, with Tunalı Hilmi Caddesi for shops and cafés. Kocatepe Mosque stands a short distance to the east. The metro lines M1 and M2 and the Ankaray light rail all meet at Kızılay, and the square itself has busy one-way traffic, so drop-offs are made at the hotel door or the nearest legal stopping point.

Public transport instead: EGO (Ankara Metropolitan Municipality) bus 442 AŞTİ – 15 Temmuz Kızılay Millî İrade Meydanı – Havalimanı from Esenboğa Airport to Kızılay (15 Temmuz Kızılay Millî İrade Meydanı), continuing to AŞTİ bus terminal, timetable published by EGO (Hareket Saatleri, line 442).
