About this transfer

Landing on the Asian side when your destination sits on the European side means crossing Istanbul from one edge to the other. Arranging a private Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) to Hotel Golden Way Giyimkent transfer gets you across the continents without the burden of planning intermediate stops along the way. We meet you in person at the arrivals gate with a name board and assist with your luggage before leading you outside.

The drive to Esenler covers 62 kilometres, using Kuzey Marmara Otoyolu to bypass the central areas of the city. Under typical road conditions, our driver reaches the property in 50 minutes. We also monitor your incoming flight for schedule changes, keeping our vehicle ready whenever you finish with passport control and step through the terminal doors.

Relying on public transport for this specific journey requires several distinct stages across both the rail network and surface lines. You must board the M4 metro to Ayrılık Çeşmesi, change to the B1 Marmaray to Yenikapı, and continue by connecting through two separate local buses. Managing all of those vehicle changes with heavy bags stretches the transit time to around 132 minutes.

Our private service operates on a single vehicle price from €65, eliminating the need to buy individual tickets for each passenger at every transit stop. That cost divides easily across your group, providing a direct ride to the hotel door. You skip the pedestrian transfers and multiple ticket gates, travelling from the terminal straight into Esenler.
