Istanbul – Erzincan distance and journey time
| From the European Side (Şişli/Mecidiyeköy) | 1,031 km |
|---|---|
| From the Asian Side (Kadıköy) | 1,026 km |
| Driving time by car | about 11 h 45 min |
| Driving time by minibus / coach | about 13 h 30 min |
| Journey including compulsory breaks | about 15 hours |
| Driver plan | two drivers or an overnight stop |
As the driving time exceeds a single driver’s legal daily limit of 9 hours, the journey is planned with two drivers or with an overnight stop on the way; at least 2 compulsory breaks are taken in total. Under the regulations, drivers of passenger vehicles may not drive for more than 4.5 hours without a break or more than 9 hours in total within 24 hours; after 4.5 hours of driving, a break of at least 45 minutes is taken. Because of the speed limits for coaches and minibuses of 100 km/h on motorways and 90 km/h on dual carriageways, journey times are longer than by car.
Day trip or overnight stay?
As the return driving time exceeds the driver’s legal daily limit of 9 hours, a programme with at least one overnight stay is recommended instead of a day trip. On overnight tours, the vehicle and driver can stay with your group throughout the programme.
