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
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 )
Toyota Corolla Sedan in Turkey
1. Delayed the issuance of the car in Istanbul for 3 hours, which disrupted our plans on the first day of the trip. 2. The car was not the one I had booked, although I had made the reservation a month before the trip, instead of Toyota Corolla - Reno Megan. 3. the car arrived dirty (in the cabin), with an empty tank, with a burning tire pressure sensor. I barely made it to the nearest gas station, I thought I would stand in Istanbul traffic jams with an empty tank, pumped up the wheel at the gas station, but it continued to go down little by little. 4. There was no water in the washer tank and you can't fill it because the hood is blocked. Had to water the windshield from a bottle to wash off dust and smudges. 5. Delayed the return of the car for 2 hours, although I brought the car directly to the office in Antalya, but there was no one there. Already had to go to the airport, some how waited for these grief employees of the rental company. 6. The deposit was given in old dollar bills, although I paid with new ones. I do not recommend anyone to get in touch with this rental company, if you do not want to have a lot of problems.
Renault Taliant in Turkey
We rented a Renault Taliant for 5 days. We loved the fact that the company provides a service of delivery and return of the car directly to the hotel - it was incredibly convenient, especially at the beginning of the trip. The car was delivered exactly at the agreed time, clean, well-maintained and fully ready for use. During all the days of renting the car never let us down: it worked properly, it was pleasant and comfortable to drive both in the city and outside it. We would also like to note the punctuality and responsibility of the staff: we picked up the car without any delays, which is very important when you plan the time of the trip. In general, we were very satisfied with the service: everything is clear, transparent and hassle-free. We can safely recommend this company to those who are looking for a reliable and convenient car rental.
Fiat Egea Multijet in Turkey
It's fine, they provided it at the airport. Not a Fiat, but a Renault Clio. They said there was a problem with the Fiat.
Fiat Fiorino in Turkey
Everything went very well, they met us at the station, took us to the office and gave us a better car than we ordered. There were no problems when returning the car, we took the car with full insurance. After the return we were taken to the train station free of charge.
Nissan Qashqai in Turkey
1) transparent pricing on the website 2) convenient prepayment by ruble card / cash on the spot. No international bank cards were required 3) we were given a different car - instead of Kashkay - Opel Grandland (new, 2025). Even a light class upgrade 4) everything is fine with the car, we had a great ride. 5) final payment without any surprises at all - the Turks sent me a screenshot from local state services with my fines (it amounted to 700 liras - pennies). I gave it to them and everything was fine. A slight disadvantage - the Turks who brought / took the car (different people) did not speak English, not a word at all, not even numerals. In Russian, of course, too. But they explained themselves.

Renault Clio 4 in Turkey
The car was delivered on time and picked up too. The car is in good condition. There is one complaint. The car was delivered with an empty tank. This is a low move on the part of the lessor, as he hoped to get additional benefit from my unused fuel.
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.
