Car rental in Antalya is the simplest way to make the coast your own. Antalya is the capital of the Turkish Riviera, the main Mediterranean airport (AYT) sits 13 km from the city centre, and it's the natural starting point for Kemer, Belek, Side and Alanya. Without a car most resorts stay "hotel and beach"; with one, the region opens up.
A couple landed at AYT around 22:40, picked up the keys at the T1 kerb by flight number, and were checked into their Lara hotel before midnight — no shuttle, no taxi queue.
Unlike Istanbul, the Antalya region has no toll roads at all — no HGS surprises on the coastal motorways. AYT also has the friendliest pricing of any major Turkish airport, with around two dozen local operators competing directly with the international chains.
Where to pick up the car
Antalya Airport is one of the busiest in Türkiye and the only international airport in the region. The centre is 13 km away — about 25 minutes off-peak and up to 40 minutes at evening rush (around 18:00). Major operators and the popular aggregators all work straight from the terminals.
T1 or T2
AYT has two terminals — T1 (international) and T2 (domestic). Always return the car at the terminal you're flying out of. The hop between them is short, but with luggage at peak times it adds 15–20 minutes. Confirm the terminal on your return ticket beforehand.
Hotel delivery
Antalya is the main hub for hotel delivery across the whole Mediterranean coast. Kemer (40 km west), Belek (40 km east), Side (75 km), Alanya (135 km), Lara and Konyaaltı within the city — the car is brought to reception and collected from there at the end. For an all-inclusive in Belek or Side, this is often easier than collecting at AYT.
A family in Belek booked delivery for two days only — the car arrived at the hotel gate at 09:00, took them to Aspendos and Side, came back at 19:00. Total cost less than two private taxi day trips.
Fiat Egea Multijet in Turkey
Everything went great with the rental! Everything was quick and clear, no problems. We were satisfied. 👍
Fiat Egea Multijet in Turkey
In general, everything went well, except for one small problem, they forgot to fill the fluid for diesel, I had to do it myself, I did not take the check, the money was not returned. It's a small thing but it was a little bit pleasant to catch during the trip a mistake in the car with which I have not previously encountered since I did not use diesel cars, to solve the problem and buy this fluid spent a certain amount of time and nerves )
Skoda Scala in Turkey
Instead of Skoda Scala I was given a Toyota Corolla 2022. The car was received at the place where I indicated. The car had a clean interior, in good working order, with minor damage on the outside of the body. No problems during the period of use. Handed it back and a deposit was taken. That's clear and straightforward. The rental process left positive emotions. Thank you.

Everything went great, the car was exactly the one I had chosen on the website. We safely traveled long distances from Antalya along the coast, there were no problems with the registration of rent and delivery of the car. Thank you!
Fiat Fiorino in Turkey
The quality of service and the car were excellent. The only thing I would like to improve is to be informed when a car or service is unavailable. I originally found a cheap rental car on your site, booked it, made a travel plan, and notified my friends. And then suddenly that car was no longer available. And I couldn't change my plans. I had to rush to find a replacement, and the new car cost twice as much. It spoiled the impression, but there was no time to look for a cheaper one. Plus it took time and effort to get the money back for the old lease. I understand that it's not 100% your fault, it's the landlord's fault, but It would be nice if you would put only real car offers on the website, and outdated ads would be better monitored and removed. Or fine unscrupulous landlords.
Antalya as a coast-wide base
What makes Antalya useful is that it's a hub. From the city you can drive to most of the region's headline sights in a day and be back for dinner. Plan 3–5 days of rental: Kemer and Olympos for one day, Pamukkale on its own with an early start, Side and Aspendos for another. That fills a week comfortably.
Pamukkale is the headline trip: 240 km and around 4 hours each way. Parking at the Pamukkale–Hierapolis entrance is around $5, the ticket $25 per adult, free for under-7s. Many stop at the thermal pools on the way back. Cappadocia is 540 km / 7–8 hours with an overnight in Konya.
A couple drove the D400 from Antalya to Kaş in five hours instead of the navigation app's three. Two long mountain stops, one swim near Olympos. They came back saying the road was the holiday.
Closer in: the Düden Waterfalls (1.5 km apart), Kursunlu (~21 km), Perge (~14 km), the Aspendos theatre (~50 km), and the Termessos ruins in the Taurus. For canyons go to Saklıkent; for mountains, Olympos with the Chimaera flames.
The hub logic works in reverse too: from Antalya you can start a road trip west — Kaş, Fethiye, Ölüdeniz, Bodrum — and end in Dalaman (one-way $150–250). The west coast then flies you home from a different airport.

Driving the city
Antalya isn't Istanbul — traffic is moderate, the roads are good, and the region is one of the easier places for a foreign driver.
D400 and the Taurus
The main coastal road is the D400 — a quality dual carriageway that turns into a mountain switchback through the Taurus west of Kemer. Sharp bends, long descents, limited visibility. Take it slowly; that's better than any overtake.
A guest from Edinburgh added 40 minutes to the navigation estimate on the Kemer–Kaş leg and arrived calm. The neighbour who tried to keep to the original ETA arrived sweating and shaken at the same hotel.
Parking in Kaleiçi
The old town of Kaleiçi is closed to cars except for the paid İSPARK zones. Kerbside parking is a guaranteed fine — Kaleiçi is one of the busiest fine spots in the region. Park at the covered İSPARK or at Hadrian's Gate and walk in. Outside Kaleiçi, parking is usually free: at hotels, in Lara, Konyaaltı and the malls.
Scooters at dusk
In Lara, Konyaaltı, Kemer and Side, summer evenings see plenty of scooter traffic. Riders weave between lanes and come from the right with little warning — extra attention pays off.
Frequent Questions
AYT is 13 km from the centre — 25 minutes off-peak via the D400 and up to 40 minutes at rush hour (usually around 18:00). The airport connects directly to the coastal D400, so getting to Lara, Konyaaltı or Kemer from the terminal also takes about half an hour. Taxi to the centre is around $15–20.
AYT has T1 (international) and T2 (domestic). Always return the car at the terminal you're flying out of — the hop between them is short, but with luggage at peak times it adds 15–20 minutes. Confirm the terminal on your return booking before you set off.
Yes — cross-region one-way is standard. Antalya → Istanbul typically costs $200–300, Antalya → Dalaman $150–250. Cars with this option go fast in summer, so book ahead. A useful scenario: end a road trip west (Kaş, Fethiye, Ölüdeniz) and fly home from Dalaman.
Yes — Antalya is one of the main hubs for hotel delivery on the coast. The car is brought straight to reception and collected from there at the end of the rental, with no return trip to AYT. For Kemer (40 km), Belek (40 km), Side (75 km) and Alanya (135 km) it's often easier than collecting at the airport.
With most suppliers free delivery covers central Antalya, Konyaaltı, Lara and the beach areas of those districts; some also cover Belek and Manavgat. Kemer, Side and Alanya are usually paid by distance. Each supplier sets its own free zone — confirm at the booking stage.
The old town is closed to cars and kerbside parking is a guaranteed fine. Use the covered İSPARK lot near Kale Kapısı or the parking at Hadrian's Gate. Kaleiçi itself is compact and easy to walk. By regional reputation, Kaleiçi is one of the busiest fine spots in the entire Antalya region.
Mostly yes. Hotels typically include free parking, and Lara, Konyaaltı and the suburbs have plenty of street spaces. Major shopping centres (TerraCity, MarkAntalya, Mall of Antalya) park for free with a purchase. Paid beach parking appears in high season at the busiest sections of Konyaaltı and Lara.
The Marina (Yat Limanı) area is pedestrian — park outside, at Hadrian's Gate or at the İSPARK by the entrance to Kaleiçi. The Marina is then a 10–15 minute walk along the seafront. Konyaaltı Beach has its own car park, and from there you can take the Antray tram across the city to the Marina.
No — Antalya and the coast (Kemer, Side, Belek, Alanya) have no toll roads at all. HGS only operates on motorways near Istanbul, Izmir and on the road to Ankara. The coastal D400 and the drive to Pamukkale are toll-free. The car will still carry an HGS sticker, but you'll only need it on a long road trip out.
On the resort streets, yes — particularly in the evenings. Lara, Konyaaltı, Kemer and Side see plenty of scooter and motorbike traffic. Riders weave between lanes and come from the right with little warning. On beach streets and narrow lanes, drive with extra attention and check mirrors before each lane change.
The D400 is a quality dual carriageway, but west of Kemer it turns into a mountain switchback through the Taurus: sharp bends, long descents, limited visibility. Take it slowly — that's better than any overtake. The most beautiful sea views are on this stretch. Add 30–40% to the time the navigation app shows.
Yes — it's the standard one-day trip with an early start. Around 240 km / 4 hours each way via the O-32 and D330. Parking at the Pamukkale–Hierapolis entrance is about $5, the ticket $25 per adult, free for under-7s. Many travellers stop at the thermal pools on the way back. Aim to be back before dark.
Pamukkale (240 km / 4h), the Aspendos amphitheatre (~50 km), the Termessos ruins in the Taurus, the Saklıkent canyon, the Düden waterfalls (1.5 km apart) and Kursunlu (~21 km), the ancient city of Perge (~14 km), Olympos with the Chimaera flames. Most fit into a single daylight trip; Pamukkale needs its own full day.
Around 540 km and 7–8 hours each way, usually with an overnight in Konya or Aksaray. As a day trip it's not realistic. If you do drive, the standard split is Antalya → Konya → Cappadocia with two or three days in Cappadocia itself. The alternative is a domestic flight from AYT to Kayseri (ASR) or Nevşehir (NAV) for $30–60.
The lowest prices are in January and February (from $38/day average), and some local suppliers offer rates from $7–15/day. Peak is July and August ($69–70). If your dates are flexible, the shoulder seasons of March–May and September–October give the best balance of price and weather.
