How to get to Ayvalik

From Istanbul

There are several bus companies running coach services to Ayvalik from Istanbul, in particular we would recommend Kamil Koc, Varan or Anadolu (a new company which people are already talking highly of). These are very comfortable with reclining seats and hot and cold drinks and snacks provided within the price, which is approximately 50 TL per person one way. The journey takes around eight hours and there are several services a day, including an overnight coach. From Istanbul there are 7 pick up points so it depends upon which area you will be staying. Your hotel should be able to direct you to the nearest Kamil Koc, Varan or Anadolu office so that you can book your tickets once you have arrived in Istanbul and the companies also provide a service bus from their offices to take you to the nearest coach pick up point.

Take the IDO ferry boat from Yenikapi, European side, in Istanbul to Bandirma which takes approximately two hours and then from Bandirma take a bus to Balikesir and change for Ayvalik which would take a further four hours. But the good news is that you will be able to take a direct bus to Ayvalik from Bandirma during the summer months.

Take an internal Borajet flight from Sabiha Gokcen airport on the Asian side of Istanbul to Balikesir Korfez Airport in Edremit, 50km North of Ayvalik, which takes approximately 45 minutes. This costs between 50 and 120 TL, again depending on time of year. From the airport to Ayvalik there is a service bus which brings you direct to the Ayvalik bus station - a half hour journey.

Take an internal flight from Ataturk Airport on the European side of Istanbul to Izmir and then from Izmir you would need to take either a Sebat or Anadolu bus to Ayvalik. The bus journey takes approximately two and a half hours and brings you directly into Ayvalik bus station. The bus journey costs between 15-18 TL. The flight costs would need to be confirmed as they vary according to time of year. 

From Izmir

Izmir Menderes Airport is for international and domestic arrivals and departures. From the airport you can either hire a car or alternatively, take a local bus (Havas) to Izmir bus station (about 20 minutes) where you can catch a direct bus, (Sebat or Anadolu to Ayvalik. The journey time is approximately two and a half hours.

From the Greek island Lesvos

You can take a flight to the Greek Island of Lesvos (Mytilini Airport) and then take a ferry boat across to Ayvalik, but please note, the ferry boat schedules can be unpredictable and should be checked daily. Ferry boat jorney time is about 1.5 hours.



If travelling by car, the routes from both Istanbul and Izmir are uncomplicated but do be aware that they are heavily patrolled by traffic police so travel documentation and speed limits should be strictly adhered to.

Canakkale/Galipoli, Assos, the Kaz Mountains, Izmir, Kozak and Bergama are all within one to two hours from Ayvalik.

Approximate Travel Distances:

Izmir 150km
Ephesus 200km

From Istanbul:

Ferry from Bandirma with coach/car to Ayvalik 223km
Ferry from Yalova with coach/car to Ayvalik 340km
