Transportation Options

Public Transport

Public transportation from Sabiha Gokcen Airport requires multiple transitions. Start with the HAVABUS to Kadıköy, then take a ferry to Eminönü, followed by a tram or walk to Sultanahmet. This journey typically takes 2-2.5 hours, depending on connection times and traffic conditions. Managing luggage through various transport changes can be challenging, especially during peak hours.

Airport Shuttle

Shared airport shuttles connect to the Sultanahmet area, but operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops. This extends the journey time significantly, often exceeding 2.5 hours. Service frequency decreases during off-peak seasons, and early morning or late-night arrivals may have limited availability.

Taxi

Standard taxis are available at the airport, but journey times and costs can vary significantly based on traffic conditions. During peak hours, the trip may take up to 2 hours. Taxis may have difficulty locating the hotel in Sultanahmet's narrow streets, and communication can be challenging for international visitors.
