A chauffeur service is a premium form of private ground transportation where a professional, vetted driver collects you in a dedicated vehicle — operating entirely on your schedule, not a shared route or an algorithm.
Unlike a metered taxi, your fare is agreed and fixed before the journey begins. Unlike ride-sharing apps, your driver is confirmed in advance and cannot cancel at short notice. A chauffeur is not simply a driver who owns a car — they are a professional who understands routes, manages luggage, communicates in English (and often in Arabic, Russian, or French), and is trained for the full range of travel needs from airport arrivals to multi-day city programmes.
Cab Istanbul operates as a licensed, regulated private transport company — holding TURSAB registration (No. 11980) and D2 transport authorization from the Ministry of Transport. Every driver is background-checked, insured, and trained in both defensive driving and client service.
Choose the service type that matches your schedule and travel need. All include the same professional driver, vehicle quality, and fixed-price booking.

Istanbul chauffeur service is a premium private ground transportation service where a professional, licensed driver collects you in a dedicated vehicle and takes you to your destination on your schedule. Unlike a taxi, your price is fixed before the journey begins. Unlike a ride-sharing app, your driver is confirmed in advance and cannot cancel at short notice. Cab Istanbul operates as a licensed, regulated private transport company — TURSAB No. 11980, D2 authorized — serving airport transfers, city tours, business travel, hourly hire, and full-day programmes across Istanbul. See also our car with driver in Istanbul page for hourly and daily options.
A taxi uses a meter — the final price is unknown until you arrive and varies with traffic and routing. A chauffeur service fixes your price at booking, so you know your exact cost before you travel. Chauffeur vehicles are pre-selected and consistently maintained; taxi quality varies significantly. Chauffeur drivers are trained in client service and are often multilingual. A chauffeur booking is confirmed in advance — the driver cannot cancel at short notice the way a taxi or app driver can.
Pricing starts from $100 for a short transfer within Istanbul using the standard Mercedes Vito. The full price depends on four factors: service duration (hourly or daily), vehicle category (sedan, van, First Class), travel distance, and any additional scope such as intercity routes or specific driver language. Your confirmed fare is shown before you pay — no meter charges, no surge pricing, no time-of-day premiums. Use the online booking tool for an instant fixed price for your specific journey.
Yes. Cab Istanbul’s hourly chauffeur hire provides a dedicated driver and vehicle for a minimum of 2 hours, with the option to extend on the day subject to availability. Your driver stays with you between stops — no rebooking required at each location. Ideal for city exploration, business appointments across multiple districts, shopping trips, or any programme where your schedule may change during the day.
The majority of our drivers are fluent in English. Arabic, Russian, and French speakers are also available. To guarantee a specific language, note your preference at the time of booking — we will confirm the assigned driver and their language capability before your journey. If you have a specific communication requirement for a business or VIP booking, contact us in advance and we will match accordingly.
Book online using the booking form on this page by selecting your pickup address, date, time, vehicle type, and service duration — your confirmed fixed price appears before you pay. You can also book by phone or WhatsApp at any time. After booking, you receive immediate confirmation with your driver’s name and contact number. For airport pickups, flight monitoring begins as soon as you confirm — your driver adjusts automatically if your flight is early or delayed.
Your driver tracks your inbound flight in real time and adjusts their arrival accordingly. A complimentary waiting period of up to one hour is included at no extra charge. You simply walk out of arrivals to find your driver and name board waiting — regardless of when your flight actually lands. For full airport arrival detail, see our Istanbul Airport Transfer page.
Yes. Contact us by phone, WhatsApp, or email at any point before or on the day of travel. We can adjust pickup time, destination, number of stops, and duration wherever fleet availability allows.

Bookings cancelled with less than 24 hours’ notice are non-refundable — drivers and vehicles are committed from the point of confirmation. Corporate accounts operate under a separate 12-hour cancellation window. To cancel, contact us by phone or WhatsApp; we send written confirmation of the cancellation.
