Transportation Options

Public Transport

Reaching Rumours Inn from Sabiha Gokcen Airport via public transportation requires multiple transfers. The journey starts with the HAVABUS to Kadıköy, followed by a ferry crossing to Eminönü, and finally a tram or walk to Sultanahmet. This 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 from Sabiha Gokcen Airport but require advance booking and follow fixed schedules. The service includes multiple hotel stops, extending journey time significantly. Limited luggage space and preset departure times may not suit all travelers, particularly those arriving on early morning or late night flights.

Taxi

While taxis are available at Sabiha Gokcen Airport, the 47-kilometer journey to Sultanahmet can be unpredictable. Fares vary significantly based on traffic conditions, especially during rush hours.
