Uzungöl VIP Transfer
An Uzungöl VIP transfer provides point-to-point private transport to this lake-and-highland area of the eastern Black Sea. However, this is not a guided tour or a day-trip package; in fact, it is simply a transfer in a private vehicle used only by you and your group.
As a result, you plan your journey to or from Uzungöl through a single reservation. In addition, the route carries no sightseeing programme, no guide accompaniment and no included meal; we simply provide a regular crossing from your address to your address.

What is an Uzungöl VIP transfer, and who is it for?
An Uzungöl VIP transfer is, by definition, a private point-to-point transport service. Therefore, we do not offer a guided sightseeing tour or a fixed excursion programme; the vehicle simply carries you and your group from your stated address to your address in Uzungöl, or the other direction.
This distinction matters, because some operators in the area sell a day-trip tour instead. Those tours typically include a guide, a fixed itinerary, sometimes a separately priced meal, and set time spent at particular stops. However, Vanvia's Uzungöl transfer is different: we handle only the transport, with no sightseeing programme or guiding service.
If this is your first time travelling to Uzungöl, the process works the same way: for example, sharing your pickup point, destination address and date at booking is all we need to confirm the plan.
Your airport connection
Trabzon Airport (TZX) is one airport connection for Uzungöl. If you arrive via TZX, we plan the onward transfer directly to Uzungöl; moreover, we describe airport-specific meet-and-greet and arrival planning on our separate page.
Rize-Artvin Airport (RZV) is also a genuine alternative serving the region. If you would like to compare which airport suits you better, you can check our airport-choice guide. That said, this page makes no fixed distance, duration or priority claim for any airport; in practice, just share where you are arriving from so we can plan the transfer.

Arrival at the lakeside accommodation area
The accommodation area around Uzungöl consists of guesthouses and hotels spread along the lakeshore. However, Vanvia has no partnership or arrangement with any accommodation business; we simply take you to the address you specify.
Reaching some addresses can vary depending on road and access conditions; for this reason, sharing your accommodation's exact location at booking helps us confirm the pickup and drop-off plan. Moreover, we cannot guarantee direct door access to every address — instead, we settle this together with you at booking.
Pickup and drop-off near the lake
The final approach around the lake can vary by address and by local arrangements. Therefore, if that last stretch is pedestrian-only or vehicle access is restricted, we plan the pickup and drop-off point at the nearest lawful public access point.
From there onward, the walk is your own choice; moreover, Vanvia provides no tour, guiding service or sightseeing programme here. We do not set the local access conditions or any charges that may apply; in short, we plan your transfer to the nearest permitted point.
Highland roads and seasonal conditions
The road to Uzungöl runs partly through highland and forest terrain. In addition, this route can vary depending on the season and weather conditions; for example, rain, fog or winter snow can add to that variability.
For this reason, we share the journey time as a range rather than a fixed figure, and we cannot guarantee uninterrupted access during extreme weather or a road closure. Should such a situation arise, however, we share the current state with you and review the plan together.
Family, group and luggage planning
As long as your group is between 1 and 8 people, the Vito VIP's cabin fits you comfortably; however, on the luggage side, the number and size of your bags matter too, which is why we talk through both before the trip.
If you are travelling with family or as a group, just mention it at booking so we can confirm the right vehicle for you. You can request a baby seat (0–4) during reservation. Availability is confirmed before booking.
- In practice, sharing the number and size of your bags in advance lets us show you the right layout.
- You just need to add a baby seat request to your booking note.
- If your group size changes, letting us know in advance helps with planning.
Reservation and before you set off
At booking, simply share your pickup point (TZX or an address inside Trabzon), your destination address in Uzungöl, the date and your passenger count. We then confirm the plan and the amount together.
We clarify which items the fare covers with you at the booking stage; however, that fare never includes a sightseeing programme, guiding service or meal. In addition, we share driver and vehicle details shortly before the journey, subject to availability, and review any seasonal road condition together with you.
