Antalya Airport (AYT) is close to most resorts: Lara is about 12 km (15 to 20 minutes), the city centre and Kaleiçi about 13 km, Belek about 30 to 35 km, Kemer about 55 to 60 km, Side about 65 to 70 km and Alanya about 120 to 135 km (around 2 hours). This page compares every main route at a glance, with links to a detailed guide for each. For the city centre, the AntRay tram is the budget option; for resorts, a private transfer or taxi is usually the practical choice, especially with children, luggage or a late arrival.

💬 Get a Transfer Quote on WhatsAppWhy Most Travelers Pre-Book
Pre-booking lets you compare a written quote and reserve a suitable vehicle before travel. Check whether the selected service includes flight monitoring, meet-and-greet, waiting time and cancellation. These features are not automatic: meeting points, delay allowances and extra charges depend on the provider and option you book.
For a city-centre hotel, compare the tram with a taxi or private transfer. Include terminal access, the walk to your accommodation and the amount of luggage you can comfortably handle.

Airport → City Centre & Kaleiçi
The AntRay tram is a public-transport option for the city centre. Check the current timetable for your arrival date and allow time to reach the stop and walk to your hotel. Do not assume a midnight cutoff or door-to-door service. For Kaleiçi, confirm vehicle access and the exact drop-off point with your accommodation. Compare tram, taxi and private transfer.
Airport → Lara Beach
Lara covers different coastal areas and hotel addresses; a single distance or price does not fit the whole area. Use the full hotel name and map pin, especially for the Kundu resort strip. Compare a direct transfer with other practical options in the airport to Lara Beach guide.
Airport → Belek
For Belek, enter your exact resort address, not just the town name. A larger vehicle may be needed for golf bags, pushchairs or a family travelling with several suitcases. Confirm any equipment supplement before paying. See the airport to Belek guide.
Airport → Kemer
For Kemer, check whether your hotel is in the town itself or a nearby resort area. This changes the distance and quote. Compare the complete private-transfer price with your alternatives rather than assuming a taxi is always more expensive. See the airport to Kemer guide.
Airport → Side
For Side, compare a direct private service with a shared shuttle if both serve your hotel. Shared services can involve departure waits and other hotel stops; ask for the likely journey duration and drop-off arrangements. See the airport to Side guide.
Airport → Alanya
Alanya requires a longer road transfer from Antalya Airport. Confirm that your flight uses AYT, not Gazipaşa (GZP), before selecting a transfer. Enter the specific hotel district and allow additional time for traffic and any shared-service stops. See the airport to Alanya guide.
Lara Beach → Kaleiçi
For a Lara-to-Kaleiçi outing, compare a bus, taxi or pre-booked car using your actual hotel address. Confirm the return arrangements separately and agree a reachable meeting point if your destination is inside the old town. See the Lara to Kaleiçi guide.
👨👩👧 Landing late or travelling with kids?
Mention your arrival time, luggage and any child seats you need. We’ll check the right vehicle for your group and confirm it in your quote.
💬 Get a Transfer Quote on WhatsAppWhich Option Fits You?
City-centre stay with light luggage: compare public transport and the final walk. Children or bulky luggage: check vehicle and child-seat availability before booking. Late arrival: check the current public-transport timetable and arrange a fallback. Long resort transfer: compare a direct service with shared options. Larger group: select a vehicle that fits everyone and all luggage; passenger seats alone are not enough.
Practical Tips Before You Book
Before paying: confirm the airport code, terminal, full hotel address, flight number, passenger count and luggage. Request child seats or accessibility arrangements and obtain confirmation, including any charge. Check whether the quote is one-way or return, per vehicle or per person, and includes parking and waiting. Read the cancellation deadline, no-show policy and flight-delay rules. Save the provider contact and follow the meeting instructions on your voucher.
Antalya Transfers: FAQ
How much does a transfer from Antalya Airport cost?
It depends mainly on distance and vehicle size: Lara and the city centre are the shortest and cheapest routes, Belek and Kemer are in the middle, and Side and Alanya cost the most. Private transfers are usually priced per vehicle, shuttles per person. Send your flight, hotel and group size to get a fixed written quote.
Is a pre-booked transfer cheaper than an airport taxi?
For short trips such as Lara or the city centre, a taxi can cost about the same. On longer routes to Kemer, Side or Alanya, a metered taxi usually costs more than a pre-booked private transfer, which also fixes the price in advance and has the driver waiting when you land.
Can I book transfers between hotels, not just from the airport?
Some providers offer hotel-to-hotel transfers. Confirm that both addresses are covered and request a quote for the specific route; an airport-transfer booking may not cover it.
What happens if my flight is delayed?
Give the provider your flight number and check its written delay policy. Flight tracking, included waiting time, rescheduling and additional charges vary. Contact the provider if your flight number or travel date changes.
Is it safe to take a taxi at Antalya Airport?
Use the designated airport taxi rank and confirm the fare basis before departure. For a pre-booked transfer, match the provider and meeting instructions to your voucher. Do not hand over payment or luggage to someone you cannot verify.
The Bottom Line
Choose the transfer that fits your route and group, not just the lowest headline price. For public transport, check the terminal connection and timetable. For a booked service, confirm capacity, the final total and the pickup instructions. Keep the written confirmation available offline.
