Antalya Airport → Karmir Resort & Spa Transfer

Karmir Resort & Spa to Antalya Airport: return transfer & taxi

The departure begins with those two short turns in reverse, out of the lane and back onto Sakıp Sabancı Caddesi. At five in the morning that costs nothing: the road is empty and the car is on the D400 within minutes. At ten on a changeover day it is a different street, with coaches and minibuses collecting guests from the hotels along it and every side lane waiting for a gap. If your flight leaves in the late morning, a pickup a little earlier than feels necessary keeps that stretch of the village from eating into the margin you set aside for the airport.

Heading north through Göynük, the car rejoins the D400 at the top of the village, and from there it is the same 52 km you came in on, around 50 minutes when traffic is ordinary. The coast part comes first, steady and predictable even with its tunnels; after Konyaaltı come the city boulevards and the ring road, and that is where the hour of the day makes itself felt. So when you arrange the return at booking, give the flight number and departure time rather than only the pickup you have in mind, and the hour can be set with the Antalya section in view.

• Wait for the car at the Karmir gate in the lane, not out on Sakıp Sabancı Caddesi, where a car stopping holds up everything behind it.
• For a party with infants, give the full head count including the youngest, so the car comes with the right number of seats and room for the pushchair.
• Write Karmir Resort & Spa, Göynük on the departure booking; the short lane off Sakıp Sabancı Caddesi is quick to find when the driver knows to look for it.
