Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) → Yalova and Termal Transfer

Your driver waits in the arrivals hall directly in front of the exit gate, holding a sign with your name, so you do not need to search for him outside. After landing you have 60 minutes of free waiting at the airport, and because the driver follows your flight number, a delayed arrival moves the meeting time with no extra charge.

This is a door-to-door private transfer: you go straight from Istanbul Sabiha Gokcen Airport (SAW) to your hotel in Yalova or Termal without changing vehicles or stopping at an otogar. On longer journeys the driver can stop at a rest facility if you ask, though break time is not counted inside the given driving time. GET4S is a TURSAB licensed travel agency (certificate no 14225) and the drivers speak English.

The road distance from Istanbul Sabiha Gokcen Airport (SAW) to Yalova and Termal is 65.5 km, and the estimated driving time is 57 minutes in traffic-free conditions. The route crosses the Gulf of Izmit via the Osmangazi Bridge, which opened on 1 July 2016, is 2,682 m long and has a 1,550 m main span; both the bridge and motorway tolls are included in your price.

Istanbul traffic is heaviest on weekdays between 07:30 and 10:00 and again between 17:00 and 20:30, when 20 to 40 minutes can be added to the 57 minute figure. Sabiha Gokcen is the closest airport to the bridge, located on the Anatolian side in the Pendik district with direct connections to the North Marmara Motorway (O-7) and the TEM (O-4). Termal town sits about 13 km from Yalova centre, so the final leg after Yalova is short.

The fixed price starts at 96 EUR per vehicle, not per person, and covers the highway, bridge and toll charges, luggage and the driver's waiting time. The base class is a 6-seat Mercedes Vito, and groups of 7 to 16 people are served by a Sprinter minibus at a group rate.

Payment can be made online by card in advance or in cash to the driver in EUR, USD, GBP or Turkish lira, and bookings can be cancelled free of charge up to 24 hours before pickup. Pickups between 22:00 and 06:00 carry a 20 percent night rate, and return bookings receive a 5 percent discount. Child seats are free on request and the service runs 24/7; on a day trip the driver waits at your destination and brings you back the same day, with the waiting period and return leg added to the reservation as a separate return leg, again with the return discount applied.

Yalova is a provincial centre on the southern shore of the Marmara Sea, and Termal district, about 13 km from Yalova centre, is known for its hot springs. The Termal springs, known in antiquity as Pythia, have served as a health destination since Roman times and were turned into a modern facility after Ataturk's visit in 1929; the Ataturk Mansion he had built in 1929 is now a museum. Thermal hotels are concentrated in Termal, while city hotels line the Yalova coast, so tell us your exact address when booking.

For comparison, a taxi would charge a metered or negotiated fare and public transport does not run direct: no intercity bus departs from the airport, so you would need Havabus or the M4 metro into the city and then a bus from Harem or Alibeykoy bus station. From Yalova you can continue by road to Bursa and Iznik, and GET4S also offers separate transfers from Istanbul airports to Bursa and Sapanca.
