⚠️ Important Local Taxi & Arrival Tips

  • Only use the official taxi rank outside the terminal and insist the driver starts the meter (75 TRY start plus 65 TRY/km).
  • Confirm card payment or agree the price before setting off if you book a private transfer; do not accept a fixed Cappadocia price from a metered taxi.
  • Book shared shuttles directly with a known Cappadocia company and give your flight number; some shuttle resellers add heavy markups.
  • Don't follow touts inside arrivals claiming to have a taxi or transfer; licensed drivers wait at the official rank or pre-booked meeting point.
