Transportation Options

Public Transport

Public transportation from Istanbul Airport involves multiple transfers, starting with the HAVAIST airport bus to Sultanahmet, followed by a local walk. The journey typically takes 90-120 minutes, depending on traffic conditions. While economical, managing luggage through busy public transport can be challenging, especially during peak hours.

Airport Shuttle

Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops, extending journey time up to 2.5 hours. Limited luggage space and rigid departure times make this option less convenient for travelers seeking flexibility. Advanced booking is required, and services may not accommodate flight delays.

Taxi

Standard taxis are readily available but present varying fare structures based on traffic conditions and time of day. The 48.7 km journey can take 60-90 minutes, with prices fluctuating significantly. Vehicle quality and comfort levels are inconsistent, particularly during busy periods.
