Public transportation from Sabiha Gokcen Airport requires multiple transfers. Take the HAVABUS to Kadikoy, then ferry to Eminonu, followed by a tram to Sultanahmet. Total journey time exceeds 2.5 hours, challenging with luggage and subject to traffic and ferry schedules. The route can be particularly demanding during peak hours or adverse weather conditions.
Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops. The journey typically takes 2-3 hours due to various pickup points and traffic conditions. Limited luggage space and inflexible departure times can make this option less convenient, especially for early or late flights.
Standard taxis offer variable pricing based on traffic conditions and time of day. The 48.3 km journey can take 60-90 minutes depending on traffic. Finding a taxi willing to make the long cross-city journey can be challenging, particularly during peak hours. Vehicle quality and comfort levels vary significantly.
