Journey times can vary significantly from 50 minutes to 1.5 hours, depending on Istanbul's dynamic traffic patterns.

Transportation Options

Public Transport

Public transportation from Sabiha Gokcen Airport requires multiple transfers. 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+ hours and can be challenging with luggage, especially during peak hours or adverse weather conditions.

Airport Shuttle

Shared airport shuttles operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops. While budget-friendly, they often require advance booking and don't offer flexibility for flight delays. The shared nature of the service means journey times can extend significantly beyond the direct route duration.

Taxi

Regular taxis are available at the airport, but pricing can vary significantly based on traffic conditions and route choices. During peak hours, finding a taxi willing to make the cross-city journey may be challenging, and communication issues can complicate the experience.
