Istanbul has
several useful tram lines,
most modern, one old-fashioned (on
purpose). You can use your Akbil electronic
transit pass on all of them.
ZEYTINBURNU-KABATAS (-BESIKTAS)
TRAM
The tram you'll use the most is the Zeytinburnu-Kabatas
(-Besiktas) tram (map).
This route goes from the district of Zeytinburnu on
the shore of the Sea
of Marmara through Sultanahmet,
across the Golden
Horn and along the southwestern Bosphorus shore,
connecting the major tourist areas with three ferry
docks, the European
railway station, and the Funicular to Taksim
Square. More...
Use this tram and the Metro to
travel between Atatürk
Airport and Sultanahmet
Square (click

NOSTALGIC ISTIKLAL CADDESI TRAM
A restored 19th-century tram trundles along Istiklal
Caddesi connecting Taksim
Square with Galatasaray and Tünel
Square. It's as much an amusement as it is
transportation. More...
