Transportation Options

Public Transport

Public transportation from Sabiha Gokcen Airport requires multiple transfers. The journey starts with the HAVABUS to Kadikoy, followed by a ferry crossing to Eminonu, and finally a tram to Sultanahmet. This complex route typically takes 2-2.5 hours, challenging with luggage and dependent on traffic and ferry schedules.

Airport Shuttle

Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops. While more affordable than private transfers, the journey can extend beyond 3 hours due to various hotel drop-offs. Limited luggage space and rigid departure times make this option less convenient for many travelers.

Taxi

Standard taxis are available but present several challenges. The long-distance journey often leads to variable pricing, especially during peak traffic hours. Finding a taxi willing to make the cross-city journey can be difficult, and communication barriers may complicate the experience.
