About this transfer
Landing on the Asian side and heading toward Beşiktaş puts you on the European side of the city. Booking your Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) to Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul At The Bosphorus transfer means crossing between continents right after your flight touches down. We meet you at the terminal exit with a name board, help with your luggage, and head out via Anadolu Otoyolu.
The route covers 40 km and usually takes 48 minutes under normal conditions. We track your flight ahead of time, so our driver waits for you even when flights land behind schedule. If you travel around morning rush hour, heavy traffic can push that drive to 68 minutes.
Public transport requires boarding the M4 subway at the terminal, changing to the B1 (Marmaray) at Ayrılık Çeşmesi, and crossing the water toward Üsküdar. That journey totals 94 minutes, and you still face a long walk after leaving the rail network. The nearest metro stop to your hotel is Yıldız on the M7 line, but getting there on foot still leaves a significant distance to cover with heavy bags.
Our private ride brings you directly to the hotel entrance in a vehicle reserved only for your party. The fixed price starts from €41, covering the entire group rather than charging individual tickets per passenger. You step straight from the arrivals hall into our car and travel without changing lines along the way.
