How to Get from Antalya Airport to Alanya: Every Option for the 125 km Route

AYT sits on the eastern side of Antalya, with an easy run onto the Alanya road. The route follows the D400 almost the whole way: past Serik and the Belek turn-off, through Manavgat and Side, then along the coast via Avsallar, İncekum and Konaklı into Alanya.

In summer there can be brief slowdowns around Manavgat, yet the total time by private car rarely exceeds 2 hours. The seafront stretches after Avsallar make the second half of the drive genuinely scenic.

Shuttle buses leave the airport regularly towards Alanya; a ticket costs about €10–14 per person. Because they pick up and drop off along the way, the journey takes 2.5–3 hours — and ends at Alanya bus station or a main-road stop, not at your hotel.

From there a short taxi hop is usually needed to reach your accommodation. After midnight the departures thin out, so late arrivals should be prepared to wait.

An airport taxi to Alanya usually comes to €95–120 on the meter, varying with traffic and your hotel’s location. Haggling is common on this long route — and the outcome rarely favours the passenger.

With a pre-booked private transfer the price is known in advance: €168 for a Mercedes Vito (up to 6 passengers), €197 for a Maybach Vito and €254 for a Sprinter minibus seating up to 12. That is more than a single taxi on the meter, but the fare is fixed in euros before you land, nobody haggles, and for five or six passengers one Vito costs less than two taxis. The driver tracks your flight, handles the luggage and takes you straight to the hotel door. The current fixed price for the route is published at get4s.com/en/transfers/antalya-alanya-transfer.

Here is what many travellers miss: the airport nearest to Alanya is not AYT but Gazipaşa-Alanya Airport (GZP), 41 km east of the city. From there a private transfer to Alanya centre takes just 35–45 minutes and costs €71 for a Mercedes Vito (up to 6 passengers), against €168 from AYT: a third of the distance for well under half the fare.

GZP receives seasonal direct flights from several European cities plus domestic connections via Istanbul. When booking flights, comparing both airports pays off — especially for anyone staying on the Mahmutlar or Kestel side of town. Route details are at get4s.com/en/transfers/gazipasa-alanya-transfer.
