Corporate Driver in Levent and Etiler
A corporate driver in Levent and Etiler spends the day between towers on Büyükdere Avenue, client lunches up the hill and dinner on the Bosphorus. This is where many international companies keep their Istanbul offices, and where many visitors have their first meeting. Your driver holds near each building and returns when you send a message.
Why Is a Driver Useful in Levent?
The metro serves the avenue well, as long as all your meetings are on the avenue. The trouble starts when the next address is up in Etiler, down on the shore at Bebek or across the bridge. Levent also sits right at the junction of the routes to the Fatih Sultan Mehmet Bridge, and that junction is what clogs up first in the evening.
A driver who knows that junction will tell you when to leave, and which way to go, before you are stuck in it.
Where Do Days in This District Usually Go?
- Offices along Büyükdere Avenue, from Zincirlikuyu to 4. Levent

Can the Car Stop at the Tower Entrance?
Usually for a moment, rarely for long. Most towers on the avenue have a covered drop-off with a security check, and some ask for the plate in advance. Tell your host that a car will arrive, and send us any instructions from the building. Your driver waits in a nearby car park, and the fee is included in the rate.
What Does a Day Here Cost?
Rates are the same across the city, per car, with VAT, fuel, tolls, parking and waiting included. See the full rate table.

Common Questions
Is Evening Traffic in Levent Really That Bad?
It can be, particularly on weekdays towards the bridge. If you have a fixed time on the Asian side, tell us when you book, and your driver will plan your departure around it.
Do You Know the Building Access Rules?
We know the common ones, but they change. Ask your host what the building requires, and let us know before the day.
