    Fun fact - Dolmuş means literally “it’s full” because they wait to have all seats occupied by passengers and only then will depart.

We would like to get the Havaist 12 (?) to Taksim and then I'm not sure after this. Would we get the F1 to Kabatas ( is that a bus?) and then the T1 from Kabatas (a tram?) to Sultanahmet?
