Sabiha Gokcen International Airport (SAW) on the Asian side of Istanbul handles roughly 41 million passengers a year and is the default airport for low-cost carriers (Pegasus, AnadoluJet) and for travellers staying on the Asian side — Kadikoy, Uskudar, Atasehir, Bagdat Avenue. SAW transfer pricing in 2026 is dramatically simpler than the airport itself: PickupsPoint publishes a single fixed-price list in EUR per route per Mercedes vehicle, all-in — pickups between 16:00 and 19:00 carry a fixed 20% evening rate, otherwise flat — with no separate line for tolls, the Eurasia Tunnel, motorway fees or driver tips. The price you see at booking at 14:00 is the price you pay the driver in cash when the chauffeur drops you at 03:45.
The complication with SAW is that the airport sits 41 km from Sultanahmet via the Eurasia Tunnel and 50 km from Taksim — versus 33 km to Kadikoy on the same Asian side. What really sets the price is which side you end on: SAW transfer prices depend more on destination side (European vs Asian) than on traffic, because European-side rides cross the Eurasia Tunnel toll while Asian-side rides do not. Asian-side rides such as Kadikoy start from €37 in a Mercedes E-Class (Uskudar and Atasehir shown at booking); European-side rides such as Sultanahmet start from €57 because of the Eurasia Tunnel toll (Besiktas and Bebek shown at booking) (~₺175 included in our price) and the 50-60 minute drive. Our pricing table below shows the exact 2026 number for every SAW route by vehicle tier.
Three things are particularly worth knowing about SAW pricing. First, the meter issue: yellow taxis from SAW run on the meter, so the fare depends on traffic and route (the tariff is the same day and night), while PickupsPoint charges €37 fixed to Kadikoy, fixed at booking including night pickups — you know the price before you land. Second, the child seat issue: SAW yellow taxis carry zero infant or child seats by default; PickupsPoint provides EU-certified seats for an extra fee, pre-installed before pickup. Third, the language issue: SAW is heavily dominated by Russian, German and Arabic travellers — our chauffeurs are available in all three languages on request, with no surcharge.
PickupsPoint operates SAW under TÜRSAB licence #12556, with a Mercedes-only fleet (E-Class, S-Class, V-Class with tinted windows) maintained on a 15,000 km service cycle. Every SAW pickup includes free real-time flight tracking, 90 minutes (60 on domestic flights) of free waiting time, a personalised name board held airside in international arrivals, free Wi-Fi, free bottled water and a printed invoice receipt in your preferred currency (EUR, USD, GBP, TRY). Round-trip bookings receive an automatic 10% discount on the total fare. The rest of this page lays out exactly what you pay for each SAW route by vehicle tier, what is included in the fixed price, what is explicitly not charged, and the most common Asian-side hotels and European-side districts where we drop SAW passengers every day.
A Sabiha Gokcen (SAW) airport transfer with PickupsPoint costs a fixed, all-inclusive price in euros set by route and Mercedes vehicle. In 2026 the Mercedes E-Class fare is €37 to Kadikoy (about 33 km on the Asian side), €57 to Sultanahmet, €52 to Taksim, with the VIP S-Class at €380; the price is confirmed at booking, though pickups between 16:00 and 19:00 carry a fixed 20% evening rate shown before you pay. Asian-side rides such as Kadikoy start from €37 because they stay on the same side as SAW (Uskudar and Atasehir shown at booking), while European-side rides such as Sultanahmet start from €57 because they cross the Eurasia Tunnel toll, which is already included (Besiktas and Bebek shown at booking).

Sabiha Gokcen (SAW) Transfer Pricing — Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a transfer from Sabiha Gokcen (SAW) to Sultanahmet cost in 2026?▼
PickupsPoint fixed-price Mercedes E-Class from SAW to Sultanahmet (Old City) is €57 one-way, all-in, in EUR. Mercedes S-Class VIP €380. Mercedes V-Class with tinted windows €90 (up to 7 passengers). All prices include the Eurasia Tunnel toll (~₺175), motorway fees, fuel and 90-min (60 on domestic flights) free waiting; child seats are available on request for an extra fee. The price is fixed at booking; pickups between 16:00 and 19:00 carry a 20% evening rate.
What is the cheapest transfer from Sabiha Gokcen Airport (SAW)?▼
The cheapest fixed-price transfer from SAW is to Kadikoy on the Asian side: €37 one-way Mercedes E-Class, 40-55 minutes via the D-100, no bridge toll required. SAW to Uskudar, Atasehir and Bagdat Avenue is priced similarly, with the exact fare shown at booking. These Asian-side routes are cheaper than any European-side destination because they do not use the Eurasia Tunnel.
Is the SAW transfer price the same at night?▼
Yes. PickupsPoint guarantees zero night surcharge — the price you see at booking is the price you pay the driver in cash, regardless of whether your flight lands at 14:00 or 03:45. This is unlike most hotel-arranged shuttles (which add €20-€60 for after-hours dispatch); SAW yellow taxis keep the same meter tariff day and night, but their final fare still depends on traffic and route.
Are tolls and the Eurasia Tunnel included in the SAW transfer price?▼
Yes — all tolls are included in the fixed quoted price. Specifically: Eurasia Tunnel (~₺175 per crossing) for SAW → European side, D-100 and O-2 motorway fees on all routes, and any bridge toll for cross-Bosphorus runs. You never see a separate line for tolls on your invoice; the fixed EUR price is the only amount charged.
How long is the transfer from SAW to Taksim?▼
SAW to Taksim is approximately 50 km via the Eurasia Tunnel, with a typical drive time of 55-75 minutes in normal Istanbul traffic. Worst case (Friday evening 17:00-19:00) can extend to 90 minutes; lightest case (Sunday morning 06:00) is 45 minutes. Our dispatch optimises the route in real time around the Bosphorus bridges, Eurasia Tunnel and D-100 — there is no detour or hidden mileage charge.
Can I book a Mercedes V-Class with tinted windows from SAW for a family of 6?▼
Yes. Mercedes V-Class with tinted privacy glass seats up to 7 passengers with 7 standard suitcases. From SAW to Asian-side hotels €72, to Sultanahmet €90, to Taksim €76, to Bebek/Etiler price shown at booking. Child, infant and booster seats are pre-installed on request for an additional charge (specify ages at booking). V-Class is the default vehicle for German, Russian and Arabic families landing at SAW.
Do you offer SAW-to-IST airport transit transfers?▼
Yes. SAW to Istanbul Airport (IST) on the European side is a 85 km cross-Istanbul drive via the O-7 ring road, typically 60-90 minutes depending on traffic. Mercedes E-Class €81 fixed, S-Class €456, V-Class €109. Includes free flight tracking on both ends, so a late SAW arrival does not cause you to miss your IST departure. Common for travellers connecting between low-cost (SAW) and full-service (IST) carriers.
Can I get a discount on a round-trip SAW transfer?▼
Yes. Round-trip bookings (SAW arrival + SAW return, or SAW arrival + IST return) receive an automatic 10% discount on the total fare. Round-trip is particularly valuable when you want the same chauffeur to return you at a confirmed time — this locks in availability and removes dispatch risk on early-morning departures from SAW, where Pegasus and AnadoluJet have heavy 05:30-07:00 outbound schedules.
