Getting From Antalya Airport to Side
The road distance between Antalya Airport (AYT) and Side is about 65 km; along the D400 coast road the journey normally takes 55–70 minutes. In the summer season coastal traffic can stretch this a little.
Going by Taxi
The yellow taxis outside the terminal run on the meter to Side. Because the meter keeps ticking throughout the trip, the amount rises as traffic builds and the distance grows — so over this 65 km route you won't see a clear total before you arrive. Night tariffs differ.
Why a Pre-Booked Private Transfer Is Different
With a private transfer the price is settled the moment you book and the figure you confirm stays fixed, however long the road takes. We track your flight, and your driver meets you at the terminal exit with a name board timed to your landing, then takes you straight to your hotel.
Public Transport to Side
There is no direct public transport from the airport to Side; you can travel via Manavgat with a connecting bus, but that is awkward with large luggage. Side is a peninsula town of ancient ruins, and vehicle access is restricted in some parts, so a driver who knows the area is valuable for reaching the hotel entrance smoothly.
