Overview
The Alanya Airport to Kas transfer covers about 365 kilometres and takes around five hours and forty minutes, tracing the coast road towards one of the Turquoise Coast's more bohemian towns. Landing at Alanya, you will find the driver assigned to your Kas booking already positioned past the luggage belt with a printed board, ready to walk your party straight to a Mercedes V-Class or Sprinter set aside only for this journey along the coast. Bookings for this stretch are locked in on WhatsApp before departure, matching what you pay at the far end of the coast road to what you agreed at the outset. Kas draws divers and travellers who prefer a slower pace, with Lycian ruins, a small old town and waterfront restaurants rather than large hotel complexes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where exactly should I look for my driver at Alanya Airport?
Look for him in the arrivals hall holding a clearly visible name board, positioned near the exit so you can find him right after baggage claim.
How long does the transfer from Alanya to Kas usually take?
Expect around five hours and forty minutes on this coastal route, with the final stretch winding along cliffside roads into town. Travellers with the Antiphellos Ancient Theatre on their list should plan the visit for the day after arrival rather than straight off the drive.
What if our flight lands at Alanya very late at night?
Late arrivals are tracked the same as any other flight, so the driver is there to meet you whenever you actually land. Guests keen on the Lycian rock tombs will still have a full day ahead of them once settled in Kas.
Is there space for diving equipment in the car?
The Sprinter offers extra room for diving gear or bulkier bags, useful for travellers heading to Kas for its diving sites. A stroll through Uzun Çarşı old town afterwards needs nothing more than comfortable shoes.
Can a child seat be arranged for this journey?
Yes, request it at the time of booking and our team confirms it is fitted before the driver leaves for Alanya Airport. Families continuing on to Kaputaş Beach can ask the driver about the nearest parking area for the steps down.
How does payment work for this private transfer?
The fare is fixed for the whole car and confirmed on WhatsApp before travel, so nothing is negotiated once you are on the road. Guests staying at Radisson Blu Hotel, Kas are dropped directly at the entrance with no separate charge for the final stretch.
Does a flight delay affect the price we agreed?
No, the agreed price stays the same, since flight tracking allows the driver to adjust pickup timing without any change in cost. Anyone booked into Peninsula Gardens Hotel can expect the same door-to-door drop regardless of how late the flight lands.
Are stops possible on the long drive towards Kas?
A short rest stop can be arranged on request, particularly useful given the winding cliffside roads near the end of the route. Diners planning an evening at Zaika Ocakbaşı will still have plenty of daylight left after this length of drive.
Is this transfer private or shared with other passengers?
It is entirely private for your group, with the vehicle booked only for you for the full five hours and forty minutes. Anyone planning a meal at Bi Lokma once settled in will find the driver happy to suggest timing around the drive.
What kind of town is Kas compared with larger resorts nearby?
It has a small old town feel, with Lycian ruins, waterfront dining and a diving scene rather than large hotel strips. Guests booked at Hotel Aysima are within easy walking distance of this quieter harbour atmosphere.
