Transportation Options

Public Transport

Public transportation from Sabiha Gokcen Airport requires multiple transfers. The journey starts with the HAVABUS to Kadıköy, followed by a ferry crossing to Eminönü, and finally a tram to Sultanahmet. This complex route typically takes 120-150 minutes, proving challenging with luggage and during peak hours. Service frequency varies throughout the day, with limited options in early morning and late evening hours.

Airport Shuttle

Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules between Sabiha Gokcen Airport and Sultanahmet. While more affordable than private options, they involve multiple hotel stops, extending journey time to over 150 minutes. Limited luggage space and rigid departure times make this option less convenient for many travelers, especially those with early or late flights.

Taxi

Standard taxis from Sabiha Gokcen Airport to Hotel Peninsula offer a direct route but present several challenges. The 48.5 km journey's cost varies significantly based on traffic conditions and time of day.
