The journey starts with the HAVABUS to Kadikoy, followed by a ferry crossing to Eminonu, and finally a tram or walk to Kucuk Ayasofya. This complex journey takes approximately 2.5 hours and can be challenging with luggage, especially during peak hours.

Taxi

While taxis are available at the airport, finding drivers willing to make the cross-city journey can be challenging during peak hours.
