About this transfer
Landing on the Asian side when your destination sits in Bağcılar means traveling clear across Istanbul to the European side. Booking our Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) to Tryp By Wyndham Istanbul Basın Ekspres transfer arranges your entire route from the moment your flight touches down. Our driver meets you inside the arrivals terminal with a personalized name board, helps you manage your luggage, and guides you to the vehicle.
The private route covers 71 kilometres, traveling along Kuzey Marmara Otoyolu to deliver you directly to the hotel entrance in Bağcılar. In typical driving conditions without major delays, this direct transfer takes around 57 minutes from terminal to reception. During the busiest evening travel periods around peak hours, crossing between continents can extend the road journey time up to 94 minutes.
Traveling to the hotel on public transit requires navigating three separate train lines, beginning on the M4 metro before transferring onto the Marmaray and the M3. Between the platform transfers and the remaining walking distance from Mahmutbey station, the rail option requires around 128 minutes. Managing heavy luggage across multiple stations and pedestrian walkways adds significant physical effort to the trip.
We track your incoming flight in real time and include complimentary waiting time so our driver is ready at the terminal, even if your plane lands behind schedule. Choosing our private vehicle provides door-to-door transport for your entire group, sharing a single set price rather than purchasing multiple separate transit fares. You depart the airport grounds immediately and complete the cross-city transfer without intermediate stops.
