From Side to Antalya's old town
The journey covers about 74 km and usually takes around 75 minutes. From Side you head west on the D400, past the Belek area, and into Antalya. The final part runs through the city centre, so this is where traffic can slow things down, especially on summer evenings and at weekday rush hours. A morning departure is normally the most relaxed option, and it leaves you a full afternoon in the old town.
It is a private transfer: just your own group in the vehicle, no shared shuttle and no detours to other hotels.
Arriving in Kaleiçi
Kaleiçi is Antalya's walled historic quarter, with narrow cobbled lanes, old Ottoman houses and the old harbour below the walls. Several lanes are very narrow or closed to traffic, so please send the exact name and address of your accommodation. If a vehicle cannot reach the door, the drop-off is at the nearest street a car can use, a short walk away.
Changing hotels? Check-out in Side is usually around midday and rooms in the old town are typically ready in the afternoon, so a late-morning pickup suits most guests.
Vehicles and luggage
For a hotel change you will have all your suitcases with you; for a day trip, probably just a small bag. Either way, there is no luggage fee.
- Minivan – 1 to 6 passengers, the usual choice for couples and families.
- VIP Mercedes-Benz Vito – 1 to 7 passengers, with extra comfort.
- Mercedes Sprinter – 8 to 16 passengers, ideal for a group visiting the old town together.
Free child seats are available on request; just tell us the children's ages.
Day trips and the ride back
Many guests staying in Side visit Kaleiçi for the day: a walk through the old streets, the harbour and dinner in the old town. Book a return transfer and agree the pickup time back when you book – your driver will be at the agreed meeting point at that time. Late-evening pickups cost the same, as there is no night surcharge.
The price is fixed per vehicle, not per person; see the price table above. Payment is made in the vehicle, in cash or by card if agreed in advance, with no prepayment. You can book 24/7 via WhatsApp.
