Airport Transportation in Dalaman

Pre-booked private transportation takes you directly from Dalaman Airport to your hotel, resort or vacation rental.

After immigration, baggage claim and customs, continue outside the terminal to the meeting area named in your confirmation. Your vehicle is reserved only for the passengers on your reservation: unlike a shared shuttle, it makes no extra hotel stops for other travelers, and the price is per vehicle, not per person.

Our Dalaman airport transportation takes you to hotels, villas and apartments in Fethiye, Ölüdeniz, Hisarönü and Ovacık, to the marinas of Göcek, to Dalyan and Sarıgerme, and west to Marmaris and İçmeler.

Dalaman Airport Transfers

Dalaman airport transfers start outside the arrivals exit of Terminal 2, where your driver waits with a name sign after passport control, baggage claim and customs; if you fly in on a domestic flight to Terminal 1, your flight number tells us where to wait. We track your flight, so the pickup follows your real landing time, and the price is fixed per vehicle before you fly, from a sedan for two to a van for a family or group with luggage.

Each Dalaman airport transfer goes door to door to your hotel, villa or vacation rental, or to the marina in Göcek, Fethiye or Marmaris if you are joining a yacht or gulet. Heading further along the coast to Kalkan or Kaş? Enter your address in the booking form to see whether a transfer is offered; if it is not, contact us before you fly.

Dalaman Airport Shuttle

Our Dalaman airport shuttle is a private van for your party only, not a shared resort coach that drops other travelers at hotel after hotel along the coast. It leaves as soon as you have your bags, with room for suitcases, strollers and beach gear, and suits families and groups staying in Ölüdeniz, Hisarönü or a villa outside Fethiye.

Landing at Dalaman Airport

Dalaman Airport (DLM) stands just south of Dalaman town in Muğla province, between Fethiye and Marmaris. It has two terminals a short walk apart: international flights use Terminal 2, opened in 2018, and domestic flights use Terminal 1, though some domestic airlines also use Terminal 2.

On an international flight you go first to passport control, where your passport and any e-Visa are checked, then to baggage claim, which has a duty-free shop for arriving passengers. After customs you walk out through the arrivals exit, where tour representatives and pre-booked drivers wait with name signs. In summer, several charter flights often land close together, so lines at passport control can build up.

Turkey is on UTC+3 all year, with no daylight saving time change, and uses the Turkish lira.

Entry requirements and local notes

Visa or e-Visa. UK, US, Canadian and most EU citizens enter Turkey visa-free for short tourist stays. Other nationalities may need an e-Visa from the official site, evisa.gov.tr, before flying; check the rules for your passport.

Passport validity. The UK government advises that your passport be valid for at least 150 days from the day you arrive in Turkey. Check your expiry date before you travel.

Antiques and souvenirs. Taking antiquities out of Turkey is illegal. Keep the receipt and any certificate for carpets or old-looking items you buy, as customs can ask for them when you leave.

Marinas and yachts. If you are joining a gulet or charter yacht in Göcek, Fethiye or Marmaris, give the marina name and the boat's name when you book, so your driver takes you to the right pier.

Dalaman Airport Transportation FAQs

Where will my driver meet me at Dalaman Airport?

Outside the arrivals exit of Terminal 2, holding a sign with your name, after passport control, baggage claim and customs. If your domestic flight arrives at Terminal 1, your driver waits there instead.

How far is Dalaman Airport from Fethiye and Ölüdeniz?

Fethiye is about 45 km (28 miles) from Dalaman Airport, usually 45 to 50 minutes by road. Ölüdeniz and Hisarönü are about an hour away, Göcek about 25 minutes, and Marmaris about an hour and a half.

Can you take me to Ölüdeniz or Hisarönü?

Yes. We drive to hotels, villas and apartments in Ölüdeniz, Hisarönü and Ovacık, door to door.

Can you take me to Göcek for my yacht or gulet?

Yes. We drive you to the marina in Göcek, Fethiye or Marmaris. Give the marina and the boat's name when you book.

Can you take me to Marmaris or İçmeler?

Yes. We drive to hotels and apartments in Marmaris and İçmeler, west of the airport.

Can you take me to Dalyan or Sarıgerme?

Yes. Dalyan and Sarıgerme beach are among the closest resort areas to the airport, and we drive door to door to hotels and villas there.

Can you take me to Kalkan or Kaş?

Kalkan and Kaş are further east along the Lycian coast. Enter your address in the booking form to see whether a transfer is offered; if it is not, contact us before you fly.

Which terminal will I arrive at in Dalaman?

International flights arrive at Terminal 2. Domestic flights from Istanbul or Ankara may arrive at Terminal 1, a short walk away, so give your flight number when you book.

Do you drive to private villas and vacation rentals?

Yes. Give the full address, the villa name and any directions, as many villas around Fethiye, Hisarönü and Kayaköy are on small hillside roads. Your driver stops at the closest point a vehicle can safely reach.

My flight lands late at night. Will my driver be there?

Yes. Your pickup is booked for your flight's arrival time, and many charter flights land at Dalaman late in the evening or early in the morning. We track the flight, so your driver waits for the actual landing.

Should I accept rides from people offering transportation in the terminal?

There is no need. Booking ahead gives you a confirmed vehicle and a meeting point before you land. If someone approaches you in arrivals, check the company name against your confirmation before getting in.

What happens if my flight is delayed or canceled?

We monitor the flight on your reservation, so your driver waits for the actual landing. If your flight number, date or airline changes, or your flight is canceled, tell customer service so the pickup can be moved.

Can I book a ride back to Dalaman Airport?

Yes. Book a one-way departure or a round trip from your hotel, villa or marina, and give your flight number and departure time, so the pickup leaves time for check-in and security.

Do I need a visa to enter Turkey at Dalaman?

UK, US, Canadian and most EU citizens enter visa-free for short tourist stays; other nationalities may need an e-Visa from evisa.gov.tr before flying. Check that your passport has enough validity left.
