Route and travel time
Çolaklı is one of the resort villages just west of Side: coming from Antalya, you reach it shortly before Side itself. From AYT the driver follows the coastal highway east, past Belek and Serik. The distance is around 61 km and the journey normally takes about 71 minutes, depending on traffic and the time of day.
The Side area is known for its long sandy beaches, which makes it a popular choice for families. Because the transfer is private, the vehicle is booked only for you and your family – there is no shared shuttle and no waiting for other passengers.

Travelling with children
After a flight with small children, the last thing you want is a queue or a crowded bus. With a private transfer you load the pushchair and the suitcases and set off straight away.
- Free child seats on request – tell us the age of each child when you book, so the right seats are fitted.
- Minivan for up to 6 passengers or VIP Mercedes-Benz Vito for up to 7 – enough room for buggies and extra bags.
- No luggage fee, however much you bring.
- Fixed price per vehicle, not per person, so children do not add to the cost.
Meeting at the airport
Your driver waits in the AYT arrivals hall holding a sign with your name. We follow your flight, so if it lands late the waiting is free, and there is no night surcharge for late arrivals. Send us the hotel name and your flight number when booking. Large resorts often have a main gate and a separate reception building; the driver takes you to the main entrance, so you do not have to carry bags or tired children far.
Going home and booking
The return transfer can be booked at the same time as your arrival. For example, with a flight at 15:00, a pickup from the hotel around 11:30 leaves time for the 71-minute drive plus check-in and security with the family. Please be in the lobby at the agreed time. Check-out times are set by the hotel; if your flight is late in the day, ask reception about late check-out.
You can book 24/7 on WhatsApp. Payment is made in the vehicle, in cash or by card if agreed in advance, and no prepayment is required.
