While public transportation is available from Sabiha Gokcen Airport, the journey requires multiple transitions. You'll need to take the HAVABUS to Kadıköy, followed by a ferry crossing and additional tram or bus connections. This complex route typically takes 2-2.5 hours and can be challenging with luggage, especially during peak hours.
Shared shuttle services operate from Sabiha Gokcen Airport but follow fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops. The journey can extend beyond 2.5 hours due to other passenger drop-offs. Limited luggage space and fixed departure times make this option less convenient for many travelers.
Standard taxis are available at the airport, but the 54.2 km journey can become costly, especially during heavy traffic. Journey times vary significantly based on traffic conditions, typically ranging from 75 to 120 minutes. Peak hour travel and unfamiliarity with the historic district's narrow streets can lead to additional challenges.
