About this transfer

Landing on the Asian side and needing the European side means crossing Istanbul from east to west. If you arrange a Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) to Amerikan Hastanesi transfer with us, we meet you at the arrivals exit with a name board and handle your bags. The hospital sits in Şişli, about 40 kilometres from the terminal via the Anadolu Otoyolu.

We track your flight so our driver is ready when you walk out, offering free waiting time if you face delays. Getting into the vehicle takes you straight to the hospital door, where the destination stays open twenty-four hours a day. Typical driving conditions take around 50 minutes, avoiding the need to haul luggage between different platforms.

Public transit requires riding the M4 subway to Kozyatağı, switching to the 251 bus toward Ali Sami Yen, and boarding the 30A bus to reach Nişantaşı. That journey involves two separate transfers across multiple lines and roughly 890 m of walking. The rail and bus route typically totals 110 minutes per person, while the nearest M2 subway stop at Osmanbey remains a walk away.

With our private transfer, you secure the entire vehicle from €41, splitting that single rate among your travel party instead of buying individual transit tickets. We take care of the driving across continents so you can travel directly to your destination without navigating connections.
