Why rent a car in Turkey?

Turkey stretches across two continents and over 780,000 square kilometres of coastline, mountains, ancient ruins, and inland valleys. Buses and domestic flights connect the big cities, but the places that make Turkey unforgettable — the lunar landscape of Cappadocia at dawn, hidden coves along the Lycian coast, the mountain roads of eastern Anatolia — sit beyond any bus timetable. A rental car turns a resort holiday into a proper road trip.

Turkey also happens to be one of the easiest countries to drive in. Roads are well-maintained, lane markings are clear, and signs at every junction are duplicated in English. Even after several hours behind the wheel, you won't feel worn out — the infrastructure is built for comfortable long-distance driving. On TakeCars, every listing shows real photos of the actual car, transparent pricing with insurance included, and reviews from travellers who've driven the same vehicle on the same roads. You're renting from a local person — not standing in an airport queue hoping for the best.

What travelers actually do with their rental cars

🚗 Roman 🇷🇺 took his first rental on a trip through Trabzon, Kars, and Erzurum — eastern Turkey in the dead of winter — and called the experience "qualitative and efficient"

🚗 Evgenii 🇷🇺 picked up at Istanbul airport and drove over 800 km to the Aegean Sea and back, burning just 5 litres per 100 km in a diesel Renault Clio — "no deposit, full insurance, and unlimited mileage is great"

🚗 Natalia 🇷🇺 covered 2,000 km through multiple Turkish cities in a diesel Hyundai Accent — "the car did not let us down"

🚗 Mikhail 🇷🇺 drove from Istanbul to Fethiye and back — about 2,500 km in an Opel Combo

🚗 Andrey 🇹🇷 needed a car to "travel a huge distance in Turkey" — even though he arrived late at night, the team was waiting for him

🚗 Anna 🇷🇺 picked up in Antalya and dropped off in Mersin — "it's mega convenient!"

🚗 Sergei 🇷🇺 rented for a trip to Cappadocia — not his first time using TakeCars — "just like last time, everything went fine"

What owners have done for renters

🤝 Danil 🇷🇺 booked an economy car and got a Renault Megane instead — a higher class, no extra charge: "they gave it to me at the airport, which was very convenient"

🤝 Igor 🇷🇺 ordered a Nissan Qashqai, received a Peugeot of similar class — "the car was new, clean, with winter tires. Service is organized perfectly: brought and picked up on time"

🤝 Iana 🇷🇺 got upgraded from a Dacia Sandero to an Opel Mokka, and the owner calmly accepted a last-minute pickup address change

🤝 Vladimir 🇷🇺 had his car delivered to his hotel and collected at the airport — "the car was in perfect condition, low mileage, clean inside and out"

🤝 Nadezda 🇷🇺 needed an extra day and it was no problem — just paid the daily rate with no fuss. No deposit, no credit card required, cash on the spot

🤝 Sergei 🇷🇺 had connection problems at the airport — paid in cash, no issues. For 10 days with full insurance, the total was "less than 300 dollars"

Where to rent a car in Turkey

TakeCars has suppliers across Turkey's major airports and cities. The most popular pickup spots include Istanbul (both Istanbul Airport and Sabiha Gökçen), Antalya, Izmir, Bodrum, Dalaman, Trabzon, Alanya, and Ankara.

One-way rentals are available between most cities — pick up in Antalya, drop off in Istanbul, or grab a car in Izmir and return it at Dalaman airport. Several renters mention how smooth this was, including Anna 🇷🇺 who picked up in Antalya and returned in Mersin. Many owners also deliver directly to your hotel and collect the car when you're done.

Pick up at the airport, your hotel, or anywhere in between

Customer reviews

Evgenii 🇷🇺 — "I received the car at Istanbul airport in 5 minutes without any problems, and gave it back there in 5 minutes as well. Drove more than 800 km to the Aegean Sea and back, consumption about 5 litres. No deposit, full insurance and unlimited mileage is great."

Jakub 🇵🇱 — "The driver met us at the airport and took us to the rental center, everything took about 15 minutes and we were on our way. The car is excellent, communication with the company is also top notch."

Ihar 🇧🇾 — "Everything was fast, clear and all conditions of the contract were fulfilled! Tolga was pleasant in communication, answered all questions, we received a clean and serviceable car. Our trip was comfortable and unforgettable."

Sergei 🇷🇺 — "The rental cost is one of the lowest. It allowed me to take a car with full insurance. For 10 days the price was less than 300 dollars, which is very budget."

Renault Symbol in Turkey

everything went perfectly! we had a slight misunderstanding with the delivery of the car - it was brought to a nearby hotel for some reason, but we figured it out, found each other, explained everything to us in an accessible way, signed the documents and parted. The only thing that was not very convenient was that the car was practically with an empty tank, but it was enough to get to the gas station, so everything was fine :) The driver's side mirror did not hold in the car, but we folded the piece of paper five times, put it between the casing and the mirror and that's it it was great :) otherwise the car is 100% working, I liked everything, what we paid for, we got it, and we paid very cheaply when compared with competitors! There was also a problem with the fact that the car did not come to the hotel either, but we successfully found each other again, the car was checked and we parted, everything ended well. Despite some unfortunate coincidences, I am very pleased and plan to contact you next year if we are in the same region! thanks for your work!

Renault Megane Sedan in Turkey

Everything went as comfortably as possible. Tolga arrived at the appointed time at our hotel, explained everything, told us where to go in case of accident and breakdown. The car is in excellent condition. We are very satisfied with the service. We will definitely recommend and use again if necessary.

Fiat Egea Multijet in Turkey

For Russians it is very convenient that there is an opportunity to pay cash for the rental. We got a slightly scratched car, and I was worried that there would be problems when returning it (although all the scratches were included in the contract). But everything went fine, there were no complaints. The car turned out to be quite roomy and passed quite well even quite difficult areas with a sharp rise. I hope that I will use this service again.

Everything was good, except for some minor delays when dropping off and picking up the car. I liked the fact that the car was delivered immediately the next day from the moment of ordering.

Fiat Egea Multijet in Turkey

We ordered a Fiat car, but we got a similar Hyundai Accent with 155000 km of mileage. We were a little worried as we were taking the car for a long trip of 2000 km through the cities of Turkey. However, Hyundai did not let us down - diesel, fast and powerful car in excellent condition, roomy and comfortable - carried 4 people with suitcases through the country. The car cost us very little - 335$ for 12 days + deposit of only 50$. This amount included insurance full CASCO + (from everything in general) and delivery of the car to the hotel and pickup from the hotel (50$). We paid in cash, which is also very convenient for Russians. Be ready that 50$ of deposit will be fully paid for the toll roads and fines. The car is equipped with an electronic toll road pass system - you don't have to pay anything, you pass automatically, the bills come to the rental office. There are small questions about the service - we ordered a car with delivery to the hotel at 9 am. In the evening the manager contacted us on WhatsApp and tried to persuade us to take the car in the evening, as in the morning traffic jams and they will not have time to deliver it by 9. But in the evening we could not take the car, so we agreed on the morning, taking into account the traffic jams - 11 am. As a result, the car was delivered at 1pm. I was in touch with the manager Turan all the time, and it is obvious that the problem of delay is not in traffic - he said that he left the office in our direction only at 10:20 am, although he should have taken into account the traffic and left earlier. Because of the late delivery, our entire travel plan was disrupted and we arrived in Izmir at night. The car was given to us with a blinking gas tank light. But otherwise, the managers are quick to respond on watsapp, answer questions, not nagging when returning the car. Despite some difficulties, I would like to recommend this company, the prices are very nice, the employees are polite and friendly, our car was in excellent condition.

The rental went well, the only disadvantage is that the data on the insurance provided is different from what is indicated on the website when booking.

Renault Clio 5 in Turkey

I would like to share my impressions from my trip to Turkey in September 2024 and renting a car from TakeCars. I booked a Reno Clio with full insurance for 7 days on the TakeCars website. When booking on the website I paid part of the payment with a Russian card. On arrival the guys quickly met me at the airport, they spoke a little Russian + smartphone translator :). We got to the office in 10 minutes, while the documents were being processed, we were treated to coffee. The car was a Hunday i20, but from the same line, so we were happy. It never let us down, economical and reliable car. We drove straight away to Oludeniz, then along the coast to Kemer. The car was taken without problems and unnecessary questions. As a result we saw a lot of beautiful and extremely beautiful locations, beaches from Fethiye to Kash, butterfly bay, Saklikent canyon, Lycian trail, ancient amphitheaters and a lot of things along the way. You should definitely travel by car. I recommend TakeCars. Fast, budget and reliable!

In fact was Fiat, but it does not matter, in fact.On the rental problems were not, at all stages, everything went without problems special, the only inconvenience that the staff of the Turkish company did not know neither Russian, nor English because of which there were some difficulties, but, in general, no complaints, thank you.

Comfortable. Met, taken to the office, given the car, after the lease was taken to the airport. There was a bad wheel, it broke on the road, I had to buy other tires, the money was reimbursed. Otherwise, no complaints, everything is fine.

RENTACARANYWHERE
Rental car on a coastal road in Turkey with turquoise Mediterranean Sea view
  • 📋 Simple terms, no fine print

    Every listing shows the full price, deposit, and insurance before you book. No counter surprises, no pressure to buy extras. The price includes insurance, delivery, and taxes — locked in before you book.

  • 💬 Direct contact with your owner

    Message your car owner directly through TakeCars. Renters coordinate airport pickups at 3 AM, change return locations mid-trip, and ask about HGS tolls — all via WhatsApp. A person, not a call centre.

  • 🚗 Free upgrades when available

    Turkey is one of our top countries for free class upgrades. Booked a Dacia Sandero, got an Opel Mokka. Reserved a Fiat, received a Toyota Corolla. A perk of renting from local suppliers who want to keep you happy.

What you should know before driving in Turkey

Turkey drives on the right. Roads are excellent, signs are duplicated in English, and international road markings apply — though the stop sign reads "DUR". Local drivers can be assertive, so stay calm and attentive. Speed limits: 50 km/h in towns, 90 km/h on rural roads, 120 km/h on motorways. Blood alcohol limit is 0.50 promille. Foreign drivers can use their home licence for up to 6 months (IDP required for non-Latin alphabet countries).

Full driving guide: rules, police, fines, and tips for first-timers →

Toll roads

Turkey's motorways (otoyol) and all Bosphorus crossings are tolled electronically via HGS stickers — no cash accepted at the gates. Most TakeCars rental cars have HGS fitted; just tell your owner to activate it before your trip. Tolls are deducted from your deposit on return. Free alternative roads exist parallel to most motorways if you prefer to skip tolls.

Toll prices, HGS setup, and motorway routes →

Fuel and parking

Fuel costs around 55–63 TRY per litre (~$1.40 USD) for both gasoline and diesel. Stations (Petrol Ofisi, Shell, BP, Opet) are plentiful — most have attendants, and you can say "dolu depo" for a full tank. In Istanbul, use paid garages (10–20 TRY/hour) or free lots near shopping centres; on-street parking is managed by attendants in yellow vests. Coastal resorts have easier parking but it fills up in summer.

Fuel station tips, parking rules, and fine amounts →

Insurance on TakeCars

Every car includes basic third-party liability (TPL) at no extra cost. You can upgrade to CDW, Super CDW, or Full Damage Waiver (FDW) for near-zero excess — cars with FDW are tagged "zero deposit." Evgenii 🇷🇺 highlighted this: his Istanbul rental came with no deposit, full insurance, and unlimited mileage — everything upfront.

Staying connected

Three providers: Turkcell (best coverage for road trips), Vodafone, and Turk Telekom. Tourist SIMs cost 1,000–1,700 TRY (~€26–45) for 28 days — buy from official shops, not street sellers. Free Wi-Fi is available at airports, cafés, and shopping centres. Download offline maps before heading into mountain areas.
