Trains
between Istanbul (Haydarpasa
Station) and Ankara (Ankara
Station) are the best in
Turkey. Most are fast,
comfortable and cheap.
The
faster the train, the higher the
fare.
(Note
that each "train" is actually
two: one leaves Istanbul and
the other leaves Ankara at
or near the same time, heading to
the other city.)
Fares
in the chart below are one-way (single),
per person, in a full-fare seat. Discounts are
available.

*Fares
for the Ankara
Ekspresi, an all-sleeping-car
train, are for one person in
a private sleeping compartment (the
lower fare), and for
two people in a compartment (the
higher fare).
