About this transfer

Landing on the Asian side and heading toward Sarıyer puts you on a journey across the city to the European side. Arranging a private Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) to Kocataş Mansions, İstanbul transfer connects those two distant points without intermediate stops. We meet you right outside arrivals with a name board, assist with your luggage, and head onto Kuzey Marmara Otoyolu.

The drive covers 60 km and usually takes about 54 minutes when moving steadily. Early departures can see lighter conditions, while peak morning movement at 08:00 extends the journey to around 73 minutes. We track your flight as you fly in, so our driver is ready at the terminal when you land.

Public transport requires several connections between the Asian terminal and the hotel. The journey starts on the M4 subway to Ünalan, shifts to the 34AS bus toward Zincirlikuyu, and finishes on the SRY-8 line to Kocataş Sahil. Navigating those transfers with suitcases takes significantly longer than driving and involves walking between stations.

Our service brings you directly to the hotel entrance in one vehicle. A single fixed fare covers the entire vehicle, dividing evenly whether you travel as a couple or with a group of four. You step into our car at the airport exit and step out at the hotel door.
