Instead of reaching a terminal hours early for a plane or train, a Mercedes-Benz Vito VIP collects you at your Istanbul address and drops you at your door in Ankara. That way you can work, rest or talk privately with your team for the whole ride. ### Route facts - Distance: 445 km - Duration: 4.5–5 hr - Estimated route price: €480 / approx. 26,850 TRY - Vehicle: Vito VIP Prices are euro (€) based; the TRY amount is shown approximately at the current rate and confirmed before reservation. Tolls and waiting conditions may affect the price. ## Book your VIP transfer Enter your route, date and passenger details to see pricing information for your transfer before booking. ## What the drive from Istanbul to Ankara is like Ankara lies roughly 450 kilometres from Istanbul by motorway. The journey takes between 4.5 and 5 hours depending on traffic. Because almost the entire route runs on the motorway, the drive flows well. In general, over a long distance, comfort decides everything. That is why the quiet-cabin, wide-seat Vito VIP stands out on this route. In addition, we can also plan a break at a suitable rest stop around Bolu on request. - One door-to-door journey with no changes - Room to work and rest throughout the ride - Breaks and extra stops planned on request - Generous space for luggage and equipment ![Rear view of a black Vanvia VIP transfer vehicle driving along an open motorway through farmland](https://vanvia.com.tr/images/vanvia-vito/vanvia-istanbul-ankara-vip-transfer-otoyol-yolculuk-850.webp) ## Why a private transfer instead of the plane or train In practice, a flight looks short on paper, yet getting to the airport, security and baggage waits inflate the total time. The train ties you to departure times and station addresses. In fact, with a private transfer, the schedule is entirely yours. You set the departure time, and we can plan an extra stop or a second address along the way. Moreover, because the cabin is yours alone, meeting prep or a private conversation happens on the road.
