The journey from Sabiha Gokcen International Airport crosses the Asian side of Istanbul, over the Bosphorus Bridge, and through the European side to reach the historical peninsula. This 53.8 km route typically takes between 60-90 minutes, depending on traffic conditions, especially during rush hours on the bridge crossing.
Public transportation from Sabiha Gokcen Airport requires multiple transfers. You'll need to take the HAVABUS to Kadıköy, then a ferry to Eminönü, followed by a tram or taxi to the hotel. This journey can take up to 2.5 hours and becomes challenging with luggage, especially during peak hours.
Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules with multiple stops along the route. While more economical than private transfers, they can take significantly longer due to other passenger pickups and drop-offs, often extending the journey to over 3 hours.
Regular taxis are available at the airport, but prices can vary significantly based on traffic and time of day. Language barriers may pose challenges, and there's often uncertainty about the final fare. During peak hours, finding an available taxi willing to make the cross-city journey can be difficult.
