A long, scenic drive west
Patara is one of the furthest points we cover from Antalya Airport. The route runs west past Antalya, then follows the coast road through the Kemer area, Kumluca and Finike, and on towards Kaş and Kalkan before turning off to Gelemiş. Expect about 225 km and around 3 hours 30 minutes; summer traffic around Antalya and Kemer can add a little.
Much of the road follows the Lycian coast, with mountains on one side and the sea on the other, so the journey is part of the holiday. The vehicle is yours alone: no other passengers and no detours to other hotels.

Landing late in the evening
Many flights reach Antalya in the evening or at night, and with a drive of this length that can mean arriving in Gelemiş in the early hours. This is where a private transfer helps most: the driver waits in the arrivals hall with a name sign, we track your flight so a delay simply moves the pick-up, and waiting is free. There is no night surcharge and no luggage fee.
Send us the hotel name and your flight number when you book. The hotel now operates as Golden Lighthouse Hotel; either name is fine. Gelemiş is a small village, so it is worth letting the hotel know you will arrive late.
Return day: work backwards from your flight
Because of the distance, the return needs careful timing. A worked example:
- Flight from Antalya at 14:00 (international)
- At the airport 2–3 hours before: about 11:30
- On the road about 3 hours 30 minutes, plus a margin for traffic
- Leave the hotel at around 06:30
Check-out times are set by the hotel, so arrange an early departure with reception the evening before. Tell us your flight time and we will suggest a pick-up time; on the day, simply be in the lobby at the agreed time.
Vehicles and booking
Every transfer is private and priced per vehicle, not per person: a minivan for up to 6 passengers, a VIP Mercedes-Benz Vito for up to 7, or a Mercedes Sprinter for 8–16. On a long drive like this, the extra comfort of a Vito is worth considering. Free child seats are available on request.
Message us on WhatsApp at any hour and you will receive a fixed-price quote within 1 minute. There is no prepayment: you pay in the vehicle, in cash or by card if agreed in advance, and cancellation is free. The return can be booked at the same time.
