Transportation Options

Public Transport

Reaching Avicenna Hotel from Sabiha Gokcen Airport via public transportation requires multiple transfers. The journey starts with the HAVABUS to Kadikoy, followed by a ferry crossing to Eminonu, and finally a tram to Sultanahmet. This complex route typically takes 2-2.5 hours, depending on traffic and connection times. Managing luggage through various transitions can be challenging, particularly during peak hours.

Airport Shuttle

Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules between Sabiha Gokcen Airport and Sultanahmet. While more economical than private transfers, these services involve multiple hotel stops, extending journey times to over 2 hours. Limited luggage space and inflexible departure times can impact travel comfort, especially for early morning or late-night flights.

Taxi

Standard taxis are available at Sabiha Gokcen Airport, but journey times and costs can vary significantly depending on traffic conditions and route selection. The 48.4 km journey typically takes 1-1.5 hours, though rush hour traffic can extend this considerably. Vehicle quality and comfort levels are inconsistent, and surge pricing may apply during peak periods.
