Fethiye Airport Transfer: Dalaman or Antalya Airport to Fethiye

Fethiye is the gateway to some of Türkiye’s best-known coastline: the Blue Lagoon at Ölüdeniz, the yacht harbour at Göcek, the boat trips to the Twelve Islands and the Lycian rock tombs above the town. Most visitors fly into Dalaman Airport, less than an hour away; others land at Antalya and make the longer drive along the coast. We drive from both.

Dalaman or Antalya?

• Dalaman Airport (DLM) – about 46 km from Fethiye town, around 50 minutes. Göcek is about 20 km from the airport, Ölüdeniz about 58 km.
• Antalya Airport (AYT) – about 206 km from Fethiye, around three hours via the coast road through Kemer, Kumluca and Kaş, or inland routes. More flights, especially outside summer.

If you can fly into Dalaman, your transfer will be much shorter.

Prices

From Antalya Airport, the fixed fare to Fethiye, Ölüdeniz, Hisarönü and Göcek is €160 per vehicle for up to 6 passengers and 6 large suitcases. From Dalaman Airport, Fethiye town is €45 per vehicle; Ölüdeniz, Hisarönü and Göcek are priced by distance and shown on the booking form before you pay. Both include airport fees and 60 minutes of free waiting after landing. Booking the return with your arrival gives you a discount on the return leg.

Meeting your driver

We follow your flight. After passport control and baggage reclaim, your driver waits in the arrivals hall with your name on a sign. Child seats are free on request.

How to book, step by step

Villas, apartments and door-to-door pickups

The Fethiye area is villa country. Thousands of holiday homes are scattered across Hisarönü, Ovacık, Kayaköy and the hills above Göcek, many on small roads that are hard to find at night. A door-to-door transfer takes you from the arrivals hall to the villa gate.

Areas we cover

• Fethiye town and Çalış beach,
• Hisarönü, Ovacık and Ölüdeniz,
• Kayaköy and the villages in the hills,
• Göcek and the villas around its bays.

From Antalya Airport, the fixed fare to Fethiye, Ölüdeniz, Hisarönü and Göcek is €160 per vehicle. From Dalaman Airport, Fethiye town is €45 per vehicle; Ölüdeniz, Hisarönü and Göcek are priced by distance and shown on the booking form before you pay. The vehicle is a Mercedes Vito for up to 6 passengers and 6 large suitcases.

Finding villas at night

Many villas have names but no house numbers, and village roads are poorly lit. In the booking notes, please give:

• the villa name and the village,
• the villa manager’s or owner’s phone number,
• a map pin or landmark – a restaurant, a mosque, a shop,
• gate codes and where the keys are.

Villa companies usually send these details with your booking confirmation; just copy them across.

The journey

Your driver meets you in arrivals with your name, loads the luggage and drives to the villa – about 50 minutes to an hour from Dalaman, about three hours from Antalya. At the villa, the bags are unloaded at the gate or door.

Villa changeover day

Villa rentals in the Fethiye area usually change over on a fixed weekday, with check-in in the afternoon. If your flight lands in the morning, the villa may not be ready yet. Ask your villa company about early access, or plan a stop – lunch in Fethiye or a swim at Çalış – before the driver takes you to the villa.

Shopping on the way

Arriving at a self-catering villa late at night with nothing in the fridge is a common problem. If you would like a short stop at a supermarket, ask the driver at the start of the journey.

1. Choose your airport

Villa or hotel?

Fethiye has more holiday villas than almost anywhere on the coast, especially in Hisarönü, Ovacık and Kayaköy. If you are staying in a villa, the transfer matters more: shared shuttles and buses do not go to villa gates. Give us the villa name, village and key holder’s phone, and the driver will bring you to the door.

5. Departure day

From Fethiye, leave about two and a half hours before an international flight from Dalaman, and about five hours before one from Antalya. Your driver collects you from your villa or hotel.

Changes

Send changes at least 48 hours before the pickup. Cancellation is free up to 24 hours before the pickup; later cancellations are not refundable; see the cancellation policy.

Fixed fares to Fethiye

From Dalaman Airport to Fethiye town the fare is €45 per vehicle; from Antalya Airport it is €160. Both are for up to 6 passengers and 6 large suitcases. From Dalaman, Ölüdeniz, Hisarönü and Göcek are priced by distance and shown on the booking form before you pay.

All-inclusive resorts

The Fethiye area has resorts of every kind: beach hotels at Ölüdeniz and Çalış, family hotels in Hisarönü and Ovacık, and boutique hotels in the yachting village of Göcek. Each area has its own access road and its own travel time from the airports.

Resort areas and travel times from Dalaman

• Göcek – about 20 km from Dalaman Airport, around 30 minutes.
• Fethiye town and Çalış – about 46 km, around 50 minutes.
• Hisarönü and Ovacık – on the hill road towards Ölüdeniz, just over an hour.
• Ölüdeniz – about 58 km, around 1 hour 15 minutes, down a steep, winding road.

From Antalya Airport, all four areas are about three hours away, at a fixed €160 per vehicle for up to 6 passengers and 6 large suitcases. From Dalaman Airport, Fethiye town is €45 per vehicle; Ölüdeniz, Hisarönü and Göcek are priced by distance and shown on the booking form before you pay.

Arriving at the resort

Your driver stops at the main reception and unloads your luggage. If your room is not ready, the hotel will usually store your bags. In Ölüdeniz, some hotels are on the pedestrian beach promenade; the driver stops as close as vehicle access allows.

Check-out day

Check-out is generally around midday. For departures from Dalaman, a pickup about two and a half hours before an international flight is usually enough from Fethiye, a little more from Ölüdeniz. For Antalya, leave about five hours before departure.

Exploring from your resort

Boat trips to the Twelve Islands leave from Fethiye harbour, paragliders take off from Babadağ above Ölüdeniz, and the ghost village of Kayaköy is a short drive from Hisarönü. Further trips – Saklıkent gorge, Kaş, Pamukkale – are covered in transfers from Fethiye.

Why not the resort coach?

Package coaches from Dalaman often serve Göcek, Fethiye, Hisarönü and Ölüdeniz in one long loop. A private transfer goes only to your hotel and waits for your flight: we follow it, and the first 60 minutes after landing are free.

Fixed fares to Fethiye

From Dalaman Airport to Fethiye town the fare is €45 per vehicle; from Antalya Airport it is €160. Both are for up to 6 passengers and 6 large suitcases. From Dalaman, Ölüdeniz, Hisarönü and Göcek are priced by distance and shown on the booking form before you pay.

Airport taxi or pre-booked transfer?

Taxis from Dalaman

Taxis at Dalaman Airport charge by the meter or by fixed local rates. The trip to Fethiye is about 46 km, to Ölüdeniz about 58 km. In the summer peak, when charter flights arrive together, queues at the rank can be long, and the cars are usually saloons with limited luggage space.

Taxis from Antalya

A taxi from Antalya Airport to Fethiye is a journey of about 206 km. On the meter, that becomes an expensive and unpredictable fare. A fixed-price transfer – €160 per vehicle – is almost always the better option.

How to choose

• Couple, Dalaman, daytime: a taxi is a reasonable choice if you are happy with the meter.
• Family or group: one Vito instead of two taxis, at a fixed price.
• Late arrivals: no queue, a driver with your name.
• Arriving at Antalya: a fixed transfer is the clear winner over a three-hour metered taxi.
• Children: free child seats with a transfer.

Getting around Fethiye

In the Fethiye area, dolmuş minibuses run frequently between Fethiye, Hisarönü and Ölüdeniz, and taxis are easy to find. A pre-booked car is most useful for the airport and for longer trips such as Saklıkent gorge, Kaş or Pamukkale.

Hotel transfers in Fethiye

Compared with the alternatives

• Airport bus: to Fethiye’s bus station, then a dolmuş or taxi.
• Package coach: stops at many hotels across the area.
• Taxi: from the rank, usually a saloon with limited luggage space.
• Private transfer: fixed price, flight-tracked, 60 minutes free waiting, driver with your name.

Check-in and check-out

Hotels usually hand over rooms in the early afternoon and expect guests out around midday. After a morning arrival, the hotel will normally store your bags. On departure day, ask about late check-out and book your pickup with enough time for your airport.

Hotels in Ölüdeniz

Some Ölüdeniz hotels are on or near the pedestrian beach promenade. The driver stops as close as vehicle access allows; ask your hotel whether they help guests with luggage from the drop-off point.

Late arrivals

Many charter flights land at Dalaman late in the evening. Tell your hotel your expected arrival – about an hour after landing for Fethiye, a little more for Ölüdeniz. Your driver is waiting whatever the time, and the price does not change.

Hotel to hotel

Combining Fethiye with another destination? Kaş is about 105 km away, Marmaris about 125 km. Enter both hotels on the booking form for a fixed price.

Groups, weddings and events

Start with the arrivals list

Send names, arrival airport, flight number, landing time, passengers per flight and accommodation. We plan vehicles per flight:

• up to 6 passengers: one Mercedes Vito;
• 7–12 passengers: two Vitos or a minibus;
• larger groups: minibuses, quoted individually.

Weddings

Weddings in the Fethiye area often take place at beach clubs in Ölüdeniz, hotels in Çalış or venues around Göcek’s bays. Guests typically stay in several hotels and villas. Transfers on the wedding day – to the ceremony, the reception and back late at night – can be planned with the airport transfers.

Sailing groups

Göcek is the start of many sailing holidays. Groups joining a yacht or gulet can be taken directly from Dalaman Airport to the marina; give us the marina name and the boat details.

Hotels and villas for wedding guests

Wedding guests often stay across Ölüdeniz, Hisarönü and Fethiye town. Send us the guest list with their accommodation, and we will group drop-offs sensibly. For the night of the wedding, late return transfers can be planned for when the party ends.

Signs and meeting

Drivers wait in arrivals with the event, retreat or guest name on the sign. Each flight is tracked, with 60 minutes of free waiting.
