Belek to Side in about 45 minutes
Belek and Side are neighbours on the same stretch of coast east of Antalya. The private transfer covers about 44 km and usually takes around 45 minutes, heading east on the main coastal road through farmland and past the Serik area before turning off to Side.
The drive is short and straightforward. Traffic is heaviest on summer afternoons, and the final minutes depend on where your Side hotel is — near the old peninsula, or along the long beaches to either side. Because the journey is so short, there is no need to plan the whole day around it — it fits easily between breakfast and lunch.
Changing hotels: check-out and check-in
Many guests split their holiday between a golf or all-inclusive resort in Belek and a stay in Side. The tricky part is timing: you normally have to leave your Belek room by late morning, while rooms in Side are usually ready in the afternoon.
A good approach is to check out, then decide whether to leave straight away and store your bags at the new hotel, or to relax a little longer before setting off. Ask both receptions about their check-in and luggage arrangements, then tell us the pick-up time that suits you. Your driver collects you at the Belek hotel entrance and drops you at the door in Side, so you never have to drag suitcases between taxis or buses.
Luggage, golf bags and vehicles
With a full set of holiday luggage, space matters more than on a quick day trip. There is no luggage fee, and you pay a fixed price per vehicle, not per person — see the price table above.
- Minivan (1–6 passengers): plenty of room for suitcases and golf bags for a couple or family.
- VIP Mercedes-Benz Vito (1–7): extra comfort for a relaxed hotel change.
- Mercedes Sprinter (8–16): groups moving hotels together.
Free child seats are available on request — mention the children's ages when you book.
