Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) to Radisson Hotel President Old Town Istanbul transfer
Private door-to-door transfer · about 43 km, 50 min · one fixed price.
About this transfer
Landing on the Asian side of Istanbul puts you about 43 kilometres away from your hotel in the Fatih district on the European side. We arrange your Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) to Radisson Hotel President Old Town Istanbul transfer to take you straight from the terminal exit across the city. Our driver meets you with a personal name board, assists with your luggage, and leads you directly to your waiting car.
The direct journey takes around 50 minutes along Anadolu Otoyolu when the highway flows smoothly. Road conditions shift throughout the day, so travelling during the morning rush hours will add extra time to the drive. Booking a private transfer means getting taken to the door directly, avoiding any need to figure out connections after a long flight.
Reaching the address by public transport involves boarding the M4 subway line, switching to the B1 Marmaray train at Ayrılık Çeşmesi, and transferring again to the T1 tram towards Beyazıt. That route requires two separate transfers with your luggage and takes around 93 minutes from the airport station. From Beyazıt, you must still complete a walk through Fatih to reach the property.
We track your inbound flight so our driver is waiting at the terminal when you land, offering free waiting time for baggage collection. Our rate is charged per vehicle, which covers your entire party rather than purchasing multiple tickets for every single passenger. You step straight inside, leave your heavy bags in the boot, and cross between continents without changing seats along the way.
