Trabzon Airport to Of
Overview
Trabzon Airport to Of follows the coast road east along the Black Sea, passing tea gardens and hazelnut orchards on one side and open sea views on the other, making it one of the more straightforward transfers on flat, easy road. At Trabzon Airport, a board with your name marks the Haqqi Tours driver, already tracking your flight, before the private V-Class or Sprinter carries you straight along the coast to your hotel in Of. Of suits travellers who want a coastal base rather than a mountain stay, with easy access to fresh seafood restaurants and a shoreline that stays close to the road for most of the journey.

Good to know
- Keep hand luggage light through arrivals, as the walk from the gate to baggage claim at Trabzon Airport is fairly short.
- Small cafes along the Of coast road can be cash-only, so change a little money before leaving the airport.
- Traffic can build briefly near the city outskirts, so an early pickup helps on busier travel days.
- Pack sun protection even on cooler days, as the coastal road offers little shade along the way.
- Try the local köfte or pide once settled in Of, both known specialities of the district.
- Ask your driver about tide or wind conditions if you plan to walk along the shoreline.
