Transportation Options

Public Transport

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

Airport Shuttle

Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops, significantly extending journey time. Limited luggage space and preset routes mean less flexibility and comfort. The service requires advance booking and doesn't accommodate flight delays, potentially causing inconvenience.

Taxi

While taxis are available at the airport, the cross-continental journey can result in varying fares depending on traffic conditions. During peak hours, the trip may take up to 2 hours. Taxi availability and service quality can be inconsistent, particularly during busy periods or adverse weather conditions.
