How much is a taxi from Antalya Airport to Side?
Antalya Airport to Side is roughly 65 km and takes about 55–70 minutes via the D400 under normal conditions. A taxi on this route runs on the meter: an opening charge plus the distance covered, a possible night tariff, and a total that climbs as traffic lengthens the journey. For that reason the final amount you pay is not fully clear until the trip ends.
How the meter works
The meter starts with an opening charge at the beginning of the journey and rises according to the distance travelled. In heavy summer traffic the trip takes longer and the total rises with it; a different tariff may apply at night. These variables make it hard to know an exact figure at the airport exit before you set off.
Compared with a fixed-fare private transfer
With Duru VIP Transfer the fare is confirmed when you book and does not change along the way, so the uncertainties of the meter, extra traffic cost and night tariffs disappear. Because your flight is tracked, your driver waits at the terminal even if you land late, then takes you straight to your hotel.
Which part of Side are you heading to?
Vehicle access to some areas of Side’s historic peninsula is restricted; however, the surrounding hotel districts such as Kumköy, Evrenseki and Çolaklı are all reachable by car. Your driver knows this distinction and drops you as close to your hotel as possible. Sharing your hotel name and neighbourhood at booking matters for the right route.
