Transportation Options

Public Transport

You'll need to take the HAVABUS to Kadıköy, followed by a ferry to Eminönü, and finally a tram to Sultanahmet. This complex route 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 between Sabiha Gokcen Airport and Sultanahmet, but they involve multiple hotel stops, extending journey time significantly. The fixed schedule may not align with your flight times, and limited luggage space can be problematic. The service doesn't provide door-to-door convenience, often requiring additional walking to reach the Radisson Hotel Istanbul Sultanahmet.

Taxi

While taxis are available at the airport, the 47.9 km journey can be expensive with variable pricing depending on traffic conditions.
