The Paris–Istanbul bridge, with no rupture. Whether you arrive at IST with an open Paris booking, or Istanbul is the start of your trip to France, Precellence remains your single point of contact — handed over on the ground by our Istanbul premium partner.
Istanbul remains one of the great waypoints for the international clientele we serve in Paris: business, MICE, GCC families — and conversely, Turks living or travelling in Paris.
Our Istanbul partner is one of the recognised premium operators in the Turkish high-end market. Their fleet is centred on Mercedes V-Class vans (6-passenger configuration, VIP interiors in cream leather, fibre-optic star ceilings, individual massage seats) and Mercedes Sprinter 13-pax for groups — a vehicle mix that reflects the Turkish market: extended families, delegations, MICE conferences, international weddings, dense traffic conditions. For clients who prefer a classic sedan such as Mercedes E-Class or S-Class, our partner mobilises them on quote and subject to availability, with no service-standard discount.
The Paris–Istanbul bridge runs in both directions, and this is precisely our core expertise for this destination. A client visiting Paris with Precellence who continues to Istanbul finds at IST or SAW a partner team that delivers the same service level he just left. Conversely, our Turkish partners refer their clients to us when they travel to Paris — a Turkish executive based in Beşiktaş arriving at CDG is met by our Paris in-house team, as a natural extension of his local habits. Each side is the extension of the other.
For our American, British and Asian clientele, Istanbul is also a major air hub between Europe, the Middle East and Asia. Many of our clients transit through IST between long-haul flights, and we coordinate their ground handling from Paris so this layover is not a logistical black hole but the continuation of a premium itinerary. English-speaking chauffeurs on the ground, real-time IST flight tracking from JFK, LAX, HKG, Tokyo, Singapore, Dubai. For our GCC clientele in particular (Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Kuwait), Arabic-speaking chauffeurs are available on request — especially valued during the summer season.
Istanbul spans two continents. Our partner covers both sides of the Bosphorus, both main airports, and extends beyond toward Bursa, Çerkezköy and the rest of Türkiye on quote.

Istanbul yellow taxis are among the most reported services by international travellers for problematic behaviour. Our Istanbul partner is precisely the opposite.
Tampered meters, deliberate detours (up to 30 km instead of 12), refusal of short trips, airport overcharging (€50 announced for a €10 fare), banknotes discreetly swapped when giving change.
Flat rate communicated at booking, chauffeur identified in advance with photo and licence plate, premium Mercedes vehicle pre-assigned, settlement in EUR from Paris, GPS journey tracking, 24/7 contact for any issue. No negotiation possible once on the ground.
Uber operates in Istanbul but via standard taxis (same vehicles, same drivers, the app on top). BiTaksi is a similar local app. For airport transfers, extended hire or premium travel: a pre-booked private chauffeur remains safer, more predictable and more comfortable.
All administrative correspondence (quote, briefing, billing, follow-up, last-minute adjustments) is handled in English or French with our Paris team. The service on the ground is delivered in English by our partner's chauffeurs (Arabic on request for our GCC clientele). One single point of contact for the client, dual ground reach for operations.
The Paris–Istanbul bridge runs in both directions. A client who discovers Paris with Precellence and extends his stay to Istanbul finds at IST or SAW a partner team briefed in advance — same premium Mercedes V-Class vehicles, same welcome standards, same discretion charter. Conversely, our Istanbul partners refer their clients to us when they travel to Paris: a Turkish executive based in Beşiktaş arriving at CDG is met by our Paris in-house team. Each side is the natural extension of the other. One single conversation from Paris in English or French, one single invoice, the same premium standard everywhere.
Direct Paris–Istanbul flight, IST layover, combined Paris + Istanbul stay — our teams take over on both sides.
The Paris-based client travelling to Istanbul (direct CDG–IST flight ~3h45) benefits from the same service standard on arrival. Our Istanbul partner meets you at IST with an English-speaking chauffeur, brief transmitted from Paris the day before. Silent file pickup — no repetition needed on arrival.
The Istanbul-based client visiting Paris (Fashion Week, conferences, medical visits, Avenue Montaigne shopping) is met at CDG or Orly by our in-house Paris team. Flight tracking, transfers to the 8th arrondissement palace hotels, hourly hire for meetings, return to the airport.
