About
Airport transfer in Istanbul is a fast-growing sector yet still catching up on the international competition. Fat Taxi was born out of our ambition to welcome travellers upon their arrival to Istanbul and make their journey from/to Istanbul airport and Sabiha Gökçen airport safe, comfortable and with a premium feel. We are a group of friends who felt that airport taxi services should be honest, of premium customer service yet affordable. With years of experience in hospitality, customer service and marketing, and being frequent travellers ourselves, we wanted to create a trusted brand that sets the standards in the industry and make people feel looked after while travelling in a somehow chaotic Turkey.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This was my second time using Fat Taxi as transport to downtown Istanbul. Sinan, the owner makes the extra mile, he is professional and trustworthy.
I had the same driver both ways. He was also helpful, punctual and polite.
Fat taxi's service is efficient, and safe. As a bonus, there was a discount on the website offering a very attractive price.

I love this service. They are the best and only taxi service I have used. Always there at airport (IST) to pick me up; return to airport is equally good. Always early with great drivers. This is my go-to service always! Highly recommend this service!
