Transfers vs. Public Transport and Taxi in Kemer
Kemer is a resort and port town on the Mediterranean coast of Turkey. The nearest airport is located 42 km away — in Antalya. Not far from it, there are popular resorts of Belek and Side.
In this article, we will tell you how to get to Kemer from the airport or leave the town.
How to Get from Kemer to the Airport, Train Station, or Neighboring Towns
There are several modes of transport tourists may choose from:
— buses and dolmus buses (share taxis). One can get to the airport using this means of transport only with a change: first, you need to take an intercity bus to Antalya bus station or a dolmus to Migros shopping mall, and then change to the bus № 600 or № 600А (800);
— ferry. It departs from the old harbor in the town center. There are no more than four trips a day;— taxi. It can be ordered by phone or taken at a special rank. Popular taxi aggregators like Uber don’t operate in Kemer;
— transfer booked via the Internet in advance.
If you want to go to another town or city, but don’t want to make changes, it is better to pre-book a transfer or take a taxi.
Transfer in Kemer vs. Taxi ordered by phone or taken at a rank
Advantages of a private transfer
You order a car at home without any hassle. You won’t have to call a taxi company several times or spend your time searching for a taxi rank — you just make a booking on the website, and the transfer driver comes for you at a specified time.
A trip to Antalya Airport is 26 dollars cheaper, as a taxi ride from Kemer will cost you at least 80 dollars. A trip in Kiwitaxi Micro-class car costs 54 dollars, and in an Economy-class one — 57 dollars.
Fixed prices. At night, taxi tariffs in Kemer (as in the whole of Turkey) increase by 50%. Transfer rates are known at the moment of booking and don’t change.
Transfer in Kemer vs. Bus and Dolmus bus
Advantages of a private transfer
You will get around at night. Public transport doesn’t operate after midnight, and dolmus buses don’t have exact timetables at all. With Kiwitaxi, you can go to any location at any time of day.
Travel without changes. In case of Kemer, all roads lead not to Rome, but to Antalya. It is Antalya bus station from where one can go to another town or airport. Don’t want to make a change? Book a transfer.
1.5 hours faster. Along with waiting for transport and all changes on the way, one may spend up to 2.5 hours getting to Antalya Airport. With Kiwitaxi, you will get there right from your hotel in a little more than an hour.
Disadvantages of a private transfer
About two times more expensive if you’re travelling solo. Taking into account all the changes, the trip to Antalya Airport for one person will cost 5.5–7.3 dollars.
Transfer in Kemer vs. Ferry
Advantages of a private transfer
You will definitely take a seat. There are about 40 seats on a ferry, and no more than four ferry trips a day. Tickets cannot be booked in advance, and if you don’t manage to purchase them, you will have to wait for another ferry or even look for another way to travel.
Much more comfortable. A transfer will definitely have more space, a trunk, and an air-conditioner. As for the ferry comfort level, some tourists are not satisfied with it.
Disadvantages of a private transfer
More expensive. The price for one ticket is around 3 dollars.
