⚠️ Important Local Taxi & Arrival Tips

  • Use only the official taxi rank outside Arrivals and insist on the meter or a fixed price agreed before departure; long trips like Kalkan are often quoted as fixed fares.
  • Ignore touts inside the terminal offering transfers; book only through reputable desks or pre-booked transfer companies.
  • City buses and trams require an Antalyakart or contactless bank card; drivers do not reliably accept cash.
  • Check the fare signboard at the rank and confirm the final price before leaving, as some drivers may try to overcharge tourists.
