⚠️ Important Local Taxi & Arrival Tips

  • Use the official taxi rank outside arrivals and make sure the meter is running; touts inside the terminal may charge double.
  • There is no direct airport bus to Çıralı—anyone outside arrivals selling a 'direct bus' ticket is scamming you.
  • At Antalya Otogar, buy Kumluca/Kaş bus tickets only at official company counters, not from people hanging around the platforms.
  • The D400 junction drop-off is not the village: if you haven't arranged pickup, you'll need a local taxi and mobile data or cash.
