The journey from Sabiha Gokcen Airport requires multiple transfers. Take the HAVABUS to Kadikoy, then ferry to Eminonu, followed by a tram 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.
Shared shuttle services operate on fixed schedules with multiple hotel stops, extending journey time beyond 3 hours. Limited luggage space and preset departure times make this option less convenient for travelers with specific arrival times or those carrying substantial baggage.
Standard taxis cover the 46.5 km route in varying times, typically 1-2 hours depending on traffic conditions. Fares fluctuate based on traffic and time of day, with limited vehicle quality assurance and potential communication challenges.
