Car Hire in Istanbul Center

Rent a car in Üsküdar – one of Istanbul's most historic districts on the Asian side, with 7 rental companies available. Üsküdar is located directly on the Bosporus, 3 km south of the FSM Bridge, and offers fantastic views of the European side. Sabiha Gökçen airport is reached at approximately 40 km (35–45 min via TEM).

Üsküdar houses iconic sites such as Kız Kulesi (Maiden's Tower, 500 m from the coast), Mihrimah Sultan Mosque, and Çamlıca Hill (3 km to the east) – Istanbul's highest point with panoramic views. The district borders Kadıköy (5 km to the south) and Beşiktaş is reached by ferry in 10 minutes. Parking along Üsküdar's waterfront is limited – use the parking garage at Üsküdar Square.

Çamlıca Hill (3 km) is a must with a rental car for the best views over Istanbul and the Bosporus. If you're planning to cross to the European side, allow an extra 20–40 minutes for bridge traffic during rush hours. Can I park for free in Üsküdar?
