The Dalaman area of Turkey is one of the most popular spots for a holiday and so it’s easy to get around with the various modes of public transport available. Dolmus minibuses run within and between the various resorts, and buses also connect places further afield. Taxis are plentiful around the clock, and you should be able to walk to most places within your resort. Car hire is readily available, too.
Travelling by bus or car
The network of shared minibuses (dolmuses) that operates in Dalaman is excellent, with fixed routes. There is also a local bus service if you wish to venture a little further. Travel is brilliant value for money.
Car hire is available, both at the airport and within resorts, and is a great way of exploring if you like to have that freedom. Remember to be extra-vigilant on the roads though, and stick to the right hand side.
Passports and Visas
Apply for a visa online to save the hassle when you’re at the airport. This can be done via the e-Visa website, and costs $20. Passports should have at least 6 months validity.
