⚠️ Important Local Taxi & Arrival Tips
- Only use the official taxi rank outside arrivals; ignore drivers inside the terminal offering cheaper rides.
- Agree the taxi fare before loading bags, as ranks often use fixed per-destination prices rather than the meter.
- Pay the airport bus by card on board; no reservations, so avoid anyone selling bus tickets online.
- In Marmaris Otogar, take the marked local dolmuş to İçmeler; don't accept unsolicited offers to 'your hotel' for an inflated private ride.
