Sabiha Gökçen Airport to Sultanahmet Transfer
You have landed at Sabiha Gökçen Airport and you are heading to Sultanahmet. Instead of a taxi queue, a meter or public transport with changes, a private car with a driver who meets you at the exit with your name takes you straight to your hotel or address.
The drive is about 50 km and takes around 60 minutes in normal traffic. The price is per vehicle, fixed at booking, and does not change if traffic is slow.

About the Area
Sultanahmet is the heart of the historic peninsula, home to Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque, Topkapı Palace and the Basilica Cistern. The Grand Bazaar and the Spice Bazaar are a few minutes away. Most hotels here are small boutique hotels.
Some streets on the historic peninsula are closed to traffic. Your driver comes as close to your hotel as possible and helps with your luggage.
How the Transfer Works
The fastest way from Sabiha Gökçen to the historic peninsula is usually the Eurasia Tunnel: it comes out at Kazlıçeşme and the coastal road leads to Sultanahmet. If the tunnel is busy, the bridge route is used.
Add your flight number when booking and we will track your landing time. After you collect your bags, your driver waits at the arrivals exit with a sign showing your name. Payment is in cash in the car or by bank transfer.
