About the Büyükçekmece to Galataport Route: From the Marmara Coast to Istanbul’s Cruise Terminal

Büyükçekmece is located on Istanbul’s European side, where the lake bearing the district’s name meets the Sea of Marmara. Known as Atirus or Atira in Byzantine sources, the settlement developed beside a historic route connecting Istanbul with Thrace and the European continent.

Büyükçekmece remained administratively connected to Çatalca until it officially became an independent district in 1987. Its best-known historic landmark is the Kanuni Sultan Süleyman Bridge, designed by Mimar Sinan and completed in 1567 at the meeting point of Büyükçekmece Lake and the Marmara Sea. A pre-booked Galataport private transfer provides direct transportation to the cruise terminal without requiring passengers to carry luggage between buses, Metrobus services, trams and taxis.
