If you are going on holiday in Fethiye or Marmaris(Turkey), the airport that will take your flight will be located one hundred and twenty kilometers east of the resort. The nearest town is called Dalaman. Does this mean that you must first get to it, then to rush to the long-awaited coolness of the Aegean Sea? Let's look at several variants of the road to and from the airport, and also learn how to spend time in the building with the benefit for yourself.
Long and short road to Marmaris
How much to get from the airport?This issue probably worries all tourists arriving in Dalaman, especially in the evening. You can, of course, quickly and with a breeze drive to Marmaris and a taxi, but this pleasure will cost you an extra 125 lire (90-100 dollars). There is an option to use a regular shuttle bus, but then the trip will take you about three hours. If you fly by charter (Mostravel, for example, or "Tez Tour"), you can arrange for a transfer on a tourist bus when buying a ticket. The road to Marmaris will take you just over an hour. Fethiye separates the distance from the airport, so the road will cost less.
