From Trabzon Airport
Around 190 km and three hours by car along the coastal highway to Ardeşen, then inland through Çamlıhemşin. Most international connections arrive here.
From Rize–Artvin Airport
About 95 km and one hour forty-five minutes — the shortest route, ideal if you connect through Istanbul or Ankara.
Private transfer vs public transport
Minibuses run from Rize and Ardeşen but require changes and fixed timings. With luggage and children, a private transfer door to door is far simpler.
