About this transfer

Booking a Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) to Lokalist, Istanbul, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel transfer takes you from the Asian side across to the European side of the city. We meet you outside the arrivals hall with a name board and take care of your bags. The route runs along the Anadolu Otoyolu into the Beyoğlu district.

The drive covers 62 km and usually takes around 53 minutes when traffic flows normally. We track your flight before landing, so your driver is in place even when your plane arrives ahead of schedule or gets delayed. Free waiting time comes standard with every private booking.

Taking public transit means boarding the M4 subway to Kozyatağı, transferring to the 129T bus, and walking from Taksim. That journey takes about 102 minutes with luggage in tow. The SG-2 airport shuttle also runs towards Taksim, dropping passengers at Abdülhak Hamit Caddesi where you continue on foot.

Our private ride brings you directly to the hotel entrance in one vehicle. While airport buses charge each passenger separately, our fixed rate of €65 covers your entire private party together. You head straight from the terminal curb to check-in without navigating stations or hauling bags through public streets.
