Sultanahmet to Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) Vito transfer
The shortest way from Sultanahmet to Sabiha Gökçen is through the Eurasia Tunnel. The drive takes between 55 and 85 minutes.
What is the road like?
The tunnel entrance is on the coast road, a few kilometres from Sultanahmet. The vehicle comes out on the Asian side, joins the E-5 or the TEM at Göztepe and carries on to Kurtköy. If the tunnel is busy, the driver heads for the 15 July Martyrs Bridge, which makes the trip longer.
Good to know
If vehicles cannot enter your hotel’s street, agree the meeting point with reception. Choosing a spot near the coast road shortens the way to the tunnel. In the evening the Asia-bound direction is busy, so for departures after 17:00 work from the upper end of the range. The tunnel toll is higher than the bridges; confirm whether it is included in the price.
What does the price include?
Prices shown are one-way and per vehicle; bridge and motorway tolls are usually included. Waiting time at the pickup address, extra stops, night rates and peak-season surcharges are agreed with the listing owner.

Frequently asked questions
How much is a Vito transfer from Sultanahmet to Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW)?
In September 2026 the average is 3,300 – 4,400 ₺, about 59 – 79 €. The price is one way and per vehicle, not per person. The vehicle owner who replies to your request confirms the exact amount.
How long does it take from Sultanahmet to Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) in a Vito?
The road is about 45–50 km and the drive takes 55–85 min. At busy hours, plan for the upper end.
What if the tunnel is closed or very busy?
The driver switches to the bridge. To cross the 15 July Martyrs Bridge you first have to go up to the Beşiktaş side, which adds twenty to thirty minutes. With that possibility in mind, owners suggest a slightly earlier pickup.
Can I get from Sultanahmet to the airport by public transport?
You can, but with changes. You take the Marmaray from Sirkeci to Ayrılık Çeşmesi and change to the M4 metro, which comes to about an hour and a half with luggage. It works for two people travelling light; with a family or a lot of luggage, a Vito is less tiring.
How long before my flight should I leave?
The general rule is to be at the terminal 3 hours before an international departure and 2 hours before a domestic one. Add the 55–85 min drive and some margin for traffic on top. If you put your flight time in the request, the owner will suggest a pickup time to match.
