Transportation Options

Public Transport

Public transportation from Sabiha Gokcen Airport to Sultanahmet requires multiple transfers. The journey starts with the HAVABUS to Kadıköy, followed by a ferry crossing to Eminönü, and finally a tram to Sultanahmet. This route typically takes 2-2.5 hours and can be challenging with luggage, especially during peak hours.

Airport Shuttle

Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops throughout the city. While economical, the journey can take up to 3 hours due to numerous stops and Istanbul's traffic patterns. Limited luggage space and rigid departure times may not suit all travelers.

Taxi

Regular taxis are available at the airport, but the long cross-city journey often leads to variable pricing. Traffic conditions, especially during rush hours, can significantly impact journey time and cost. Communication challenges and route preferences may also create uncertainty for international travelers.
