What the drive from Izmir to Çanakkale is like
Along the North Aegean corridor, Izmir and Çanakkale sit roughly 320 kilometres apart, and depending on traffic the journey wraps up in 3.5 to 4 hours. The stretch running along the Edremit bay coastline stands out as the most enjoyable part of the road. First, speed limits tend to run lower along that coastal stretch, which makes it easier to actually take in the scenery.
In the summer months, traffic around the bay can build up from time to time, so we plan the departure hour together with you, factoring in the day's traffic. On request, we also add a break at a suitable stop. In addition, we make a point of choosing rest stops close to the bay view whenever we can.

Troy, Assos and Gallipoli plans
Above all, the most special part of this route is its historic stops. The Troy archaeological site sits just off the road, while Assos and Behramkale can join the plan with a small detour on the bay side. In addition, share the stops when booking, and we settle the waiting conditions in advance.
Of course, we also consider a wider programme covering the Gallipoli memorials on request. For our Istanbul-departure Çanakkale route, see the separate page.

How the Izmir to Çanakkale transfer price is set
The estimated route price here is €430. To set the final amount, we take into account the pickup address, the destination, the passenger count and requests such as visit stops, and we confirm the figure with you before booking. For example, if you add a Troy stop, we factor the waiting time into the estimated duration too.
We share clearly before booking what the price covers and items such as motorway tolls. So you won't run into an unexpected charge at the end of the journey. Moreover, if the visit plan changes and it affects the price, we let you know before booking.
Booking and the return trip
When you book, you send us your pickup address, your destination in Çanakkale and any visit stops, and we confirm the route and the final amount right away. We also share the driver and vehicle details before the transfer. As a result, on this long history-filled day, you know from the outset who you'll be travelling with.
We can add the return transfer to the same booking too — just let us know your date. For our other northbound route, you can also look at the Izmir to Balıkesir page. On the other hand, if you'd like to add a Gallipoli programme too, you can mention that in the same booking.
