⚠️ Important Local Taxi & Arrival Tips

  • Avoid touts in the arrivals hall offering 'cheap transfer' or 'bus to Didim'; there is no direct bus, and unlicensed drivers may not have insurance.
  • Always check the taxi meter is on or agree a fixed fare before leaving; official start is 150 TRY and minimum 250 TRY.
  • Carry Turkish Lira for taxis and dolmuşes: not all drivers accept card, and currency exchange at the airport may offer poor rates.
  • At the official taxi rank, use only licensed taxis and do not follow anyone to a private car in the car park.
