If depart from Attartuk bertolak 4 jam sebelum departure, kalau Sabiha allow 5 hours, you'll be safe.

Ayo, tak payah tidor kat epot lah. If you can reach Ataturk 3 jam sebelum penerbangan, you are saf ...

Good info Transporter... good job... heheheh... saya punye flight balik M’sia jam 17.55... dekat pukul 6 ptg.. on Tuesday... so, what time should I leave from Sultanahmet to Ataturk ... lagi satu Transporter... Masa arrival di Ataturk tu.. lama tak process kat Imi? Sebab saya nanti akan sampai jam 5.30 pm... so nak kene inform hotel kalau lambat... kene kan...  nanti I nak tunjuk my Ite kat U la...

This is what I did during 2nd visit in 2010 to cover Istanbul, Cappedocia and Izmir.

Fly from Dubai to Attartuk Airport, spend 7 days in Istanbul.

From Sabiha Gokcen fly via Pegasus to Kayseri, spend 3 days in Cappedocia, kami guna Green utk tour guide utk 1 hari sahaja, yg lain nya kami explore sendiri.

From Kayseri fly to Izmir via Pegasus - spend 3 days in Izmir. Kami sewa kereta utk explore Selcuk, Ephesus, Aphrodisias dan banyak lagi.

From Izmir fly back to Attartuk then back to Dubai.

This will be also doable if you fly from KL.

Turkey domestic flight is cheap especially with early bookings.

Inbound & outbound passport control sama aje whether suboh atau petang .... one word - PACK macam gambar I post tulah ... macam lembu lepas kandang. Tapi the queue is moving. Within 30 minits, you should be clear of passport control (immigration). Mereka tak banyak chikadak. Hari kita org sampai, jemaah haji Turki pun pulang, suspense dibuat nya, tapi mereka different counter lah.

Jika yr departure is 17:55, di sarankan kuar hotel 13:30~14:00 (traffic-jam taken into a/c). Make sure if your hotel is in Sultanahmet and is beside the tram track, taxi atau other vehicle tak boleh masuk .... you need to walk elsewhere for taxi, coach, etc.

Jika naik train, naik aje kat mana2 tram stop kat area Sultanahmet ke airport - guarantee takde traffic-jam.

(My above post assume balik MAS @ 15:10)

Hai Leni, sebenarnya kami tinggal 3 hari 2 malam, hari pertama kami sampai dah tengah hari. Sepanjang tiga hari sempatlah ke Goreme Open Muzium, melawat beberapa gua di Urgup termasuk kota bawah tanah, Zelve open museum, Pasabag, Derinkuyu, Uchisar Castle ( tapi tak panjat sampai atas) dan beberapa tempat lagi. Dan yg paling penting Hot Ballon ride. Stunning views.

Kami tinggal kat Divan Cave House, good location, selesa dan owner very friendly. Utk moving around kami banyak guna bus/shuttle. Tanya kat hotel counter, they will be very happy to help. Kami pergi berdua sahaja, me & wife. Tapi kalau berempat elok sewa kereta, lagi fleksible. Please be advised that POI kat Cappadocia are scattered tak macam Istanbul dekat antara satu.

Pamukalle lebih dekat dgn Izmir. So kami visit Pamukalle semasa kami di Izmir. Masa di Izmir kami sewa kereta sebab ada dua orang join kami. So we share.

Ada yg kata melawat Istanbul waktu winter tak berapa best sebab siang singkat dan malam panjang. Nothing to worry sebab pemandangan Istanbul waktu malam sangatlah indah.

Saya prefer waktu nak masuk winter sekitar November to early December.  Low season,  tak crowded,  tak perlu beratur panjang utk masuk Aya Sofia or Topkapi, hotel pun tak mahal.
