Full Description
Ankara Airport to Konya transfer: the easiest way to get there
When you land at Ankara Airport, the last thing you want is to work out how to get from the airport to Konya. A private airport transfer takes the question away: a Haqqi Tours driver is at arrivals when you walk out, your vehicle is parked minutes away, and the cost of the Ankara Airport to Konya transfer was fixed on WhatsApp before you left home. There is no airport taxi queue, no meter running in traffic and no negotiating a fare in a language you may not speak.
This page covers everything travellers ask about the Ankara Airport to Konya route: how far it is and how long it takes, whether an airport taxi, public transport or a private transfer is the better choice, what Konya in Ankara is like, where to stay and eat, when to travel, where you meet your driver at Ankara Airport, which vehicles we use and how the booking works.
Arriving at Ankara Airport (ESB)
Ankara Esenboğa Airport (ESB) is about 30 km north-east of Kızılay, with one domestic and one international terminal under the same roof.
Whichever hall you come out of, the routine for a Ankara Airport to Konya transfer is the same: collect your bags, clear passport control, switch on your phone, and follow the meeting instruction from your WhatsApp confirmation. Your driver already knows your flight has landed - every pickup at Ankara Airport is tracked against the live arrival time - so there is no need to call, though a message is always welcome.
Searches for "ESB to Konya" or "ESB airport transfer" land here for a reason: ESB is the airport code for Ankara Airport, and this is the private-car service that connects it with Konya.
Ankara Airport to Konya at a glance
Service: private transfer, your own vehicle from Ankara Airport to Konya, door to door. Vehicles: Sedan (1–3 passengers), Minivan (1–7 passengers) and Sprinter (8–13 passengers) - Mercedes, Volkswagen, Ford Transit and Peugeot Traveller models, air-conditioned, with room for luggage. Price: fixed for the whole vehicle and agreed on WhatsApp before you travel, tolls and waiting included, nothing to pay the driver on the day. Meeting: at Ankara Airport, at the point named in your confirmation, with flight tracking so a delay moves the pickup. Booking: the form on this page or a WhatsApp message; confirmation in writing within minutes, in Arabic or English.
Taxi or private transfer from Ankara Airport to Konya?
An airport taxi from Ankara Airport to Konya means finding the official rank, waiting your turn, and paying whatever the meter shows at the end - more at night, more in traffic, and sometimes more if the driver takes the long way. A private transfer from Haqqi Tours replaces all of that with one agreed price for the whole car, confirmed in writing on WhatsApp before you fly.
For one traveller with a small bag, a taxi or public transport can be a fair choice. For two or more people, a family with children, or anyone with real luggage, a private transfer is normally the cheapest way to get from Ankara Airport to Konya per person - and by far the easiest. Public transport to Konya involves changes, tickets and stairs; a private car goes to the hotel door.
There is also the question of trust. Our drivers know the hotels of Konya, work on a fixed price, and never take a detour or add a "special fare" at the end. Your booking is confirmed by a real person on a WhatsApp desk that works in Arabic and English, and that same desk is reachable throughout your trip.
Public transport from Ankara Airport to Konya: is there a bus, train or metro?
Esenboğa has an airport bus (Belkoair) to the centre and a metro extension under construction; the bus stops at fixed points in Kızılay and Aşti, and a hotel in Çankaya or Bilkent still needs a taxi from there.
So the honest comparison for Konya is this: public transport is the cheapest option for one person with a cabin bag and time to spare, and a private Ankara Airport to Konya transfer is the better one for everybody else - two or more travellers, families, older relatives, anyone landing late, anyone with proper luggage. The price is per vehicle, not per person, which is why a family of four often pays less than it would on four bus or train tickets plus the taxi at the end.
About Konya
Ankara is the capital of Turkey, a city of ministries, embassies and universities on the Anatolian plateau, with Esenboğa Airport (ESB) about 30 km north-east of the centre and the old citadel quarter, Kızılay and Çankaya forming its heart.
Konya in Ankara is part of a city that visitors know by its neighbourhoods: Çankaya and the embassy district, Ulus and the citadel (Ankara Kalesi), Gaziosmanpaşa (GOP) and Bilkent and Çayyolu to the west. Whichever of them you are staying in, the Ankara Airport to Konya transfer is priced for the whole vehicle, door to door.
The things most people come to Ankara to see include Kocatepe Mosque, Hamamönü restored Ottoman streets, Atakule tower, Gençlik Park and the Roman Temple of Augustus. Arriving by private transfer from Ankara Airport means you start on them rested, with the luggage already at the hotel.
Hotels in Konya: where the transfer takes you
Whether you are staying in a large hotel, a small guesthouse or a rented apartment in Konya, the transfer is door to door. Our drivers know the hotels of Eryaman and Etimesgut, Kızılay, the city centre and Çankaya and the embassy district well, and any other address in Ankara is fine - tell us where, and if the lane is too narrow for a car the driver stops at the nearest point and helps with the bags.
Eating well after the Ankara Airport to Konya drive
Food is part of the arrival. Around Konya you will find kebab in Kızılay, Ankara tava (lamb with orzo), Beypazarı kuru breads and desserts and döner on Sakarya Street, and most of our drivers can tell you where they eat themselves. If you would rather go straight from Ankara Airport to a table than to the hotel, mention it when you book and the driver drops you close by.
Best time to travel from Ankara Airport to Konya
Ankara has a continental climate: hot dry summers, cold snowy winters when the airport road can slow down, and pleasant springs; official events can close streets around Çankaya at short notice.
Seasonal traffic is the driver's problem, not yours: the Ankara Airport to Konya price is agreed in advance and a slower drive costs nothing extra. If you are travelling at a busy time, let the desk know your plans for the day of arrival and they will suggest the best pickup timing.
Meeting your driver at Ankara Airport
Where you meet your driver depends on Ankara Airport: a set meeting point inside arrivals, a designated exit, or a name board held just after customs. Rather than guess, we send the exact instructions with your WhatsApp confirmation - the meeting place, the driver's name and number, and what to do if you cannot see them. If your flight is delayed, we know: every Ankara Airport to Konya transfer is flight-tracked and the pickup moves with your real landing time.
Waiting time after landing is included, and if you are delayed at baggage or passport control a quick WhatsApp message keeps everyone informed. On the way back, the driver collects you from the hotel at an agreed time with enough margin for your flight from Ankara Airport.
Our vehicles for the Ankara Airport to Konya transfer
For this route we offer Sedan (1–3 passengers), Minivan (1–7 passengers) and Sprinter (8–13 passengers). The vans are Mercedes, Volkswagen, Ford Transit and Peugeot Traveller models, all recent, air-conditioned and cleaned between journeys, with proper luggage space rather than a crowded boot. Choose the vehicle by how many of you are travelling and how much luggage you bring; the desk will tell you if a larger vehicle would be more comfortable.
Child seats and booster seats are available on request - say the ages of the children when you book and we bring the right ones. Extra-large luggage, sports equipment and wheelchairs are all fine; just mention them so the right vehicle is sent.
As a guide, the sedan suits one to three people with normal suitcases, the minivan or GMC a family or group of up to seven with their luggage, and the Sprinter larger parties of up to thirteen; there is cold water in the car, phone chargers in most models, and no smoking.
Who books the Ankara Airport to Konya transfer
The Ankara Airport to Konya transfer suits anyone who values a plan: honeymooners heading for a hotel in Ankara with more luggage than they admit, parents travelling with small children, friends sharing a Sprinter, colleagues on a work trip who need an invoice, and grandparents who would rather be met than find their own way. Because the price is per vehicle, the more of you there are the better it compares with taxis and tickets.
If your trip continues beyond Konya - a day trip, a second city, a port or a return to Ankara Airport - the same desk arranges it in the same WhatsApp conversation, with the same fixed-price approach.
Families, groups and business travel from Ankara Airport to Konya
Travelling with children changes what matters: a child seat fitted before you arrive, space for the pushchair, a driver who is not in a hurry, and no waiting in a queue with tired kids. Say the ages when you book the Ankara Airport to Konya transfer and the right seats are in the car; a minivan gives a family of five room to spread out, and the fixed price is the same whether the drive is quick or slow.
Honeymooners, solo travellers and couples take the sedan; if you are unsure which vehicle suits your group and luggage, send the numbers on WhatsApp and the desk recommends one before you pay.
How to book your Ankara Airport to Konya transfer
Booking is simple: fill in the form on this page or message us on WhatsApp with your flight number, the date, the number of passengers and your hotel in Konya. A member of our team replies within minutes to confirm the price and the meeting point. Payment is arranged on WhatsApp as well, in whichever way suits you, and your confirmation is written down so nothing is left to memory.
Changes and cancellations are handled through the same WhatsApp conversation. Because the terms depend on conditions such as how close to the pickup time the request is made, our team will explain exactly what applies to your booking when you ask - always before any payment, never as a surprise afterwards.
Good to know before you land at Ankara Airport
Give us the district as well as the hotel - Ankara is spread widely, and Bilkent, Çankaya and Kızılay are different drives from Esenboğa.
Keep your phone charged and roaming or Wi-Fi on for the WhatsApp thread; the driver's number is in your confirmation and a message on landing at Ankara Airport is the quickest way to say you are through.
If you are two households or a group, say how many bags as well as how many people; luggage decides the vehicle more often than passengers do.
Konya to Ankara Airport: the return transfer
Heading back to Ankara Airport at the end of the stay is just as easy - tell us the flight time and the hotel, and a driver is at the door with time to spare. Many travellers also use the desk for a day trip or an onward transfer from Konya; everything is arranged in the same WhatsApp chat.
The Konya to Ankara Airport leg is the same fixed price, and the driver drops the bags at the right departures entrance so you are not hunting for the terminal yourself.
Why travellers choose Haqqi Tours for Ankara Airport to Konya
What guests tell us they value about the Ankara Airport to Konya transfer is the absence of surprises. The price they were quoted is the price they pay. The driver is where the confirmation said. The car is clean and the right size. And the WhatsApp desk that made the booking is still there, in Arabic and English, for the whole trip - for the return, a day out, or a question about Konya at any hour.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to what travellers ask us most, before they book.
Where do I meet my driver at Ankara Airport?
At the place named in your confirmation: for Ankara Airport that is either the airport's official meeting point or the arrivals exit, where the driver holds a board with your name. The message also gives the driver's number, so if you cannot see them a one-line WhatsApp sorts it in a moment.
How far is Konya from Ankara Airport, and how long does the transfer take?
It is a direct drive. Traffic at rush hour or on holiday weekends can add a little; the price of your Ankara Airport to Konya transfer is fixed in advance, so a slower drive never costs more.
Is a private transfer cheaper than an airport taxi from Ankara Airport to Konya?
Compare the whole cost, not the starting fare. A taxi from Ankara Airport to Konya adds the meter in traffic, a night rate and sometimes tolls; the private transfer is one figure agreed in writing before you fly, whatever the traffic does. For anyone not travelling alone with a small bag, that figure is normally the cheaper one.
What is the best way to get from Ankara Airport to Konya?
With luggage, a family or after a long flight, a pre-booked private transfer is the easiest and most comfortable way: door to door, no queue, no changes. Public transport can work for a solo traveller with a small bag, but it means tickets, transfers and stairs; an airport taxi means the meter. A private car takes you straight to your hotel in Konya.
Is there a bus, train or metro from Ankara Airport to Konya?
Esenboğa has an airport bus (Belkoair) to the centre and a metro extension under construction; the bus stops at fixed points in Kızılay and Aşti, and a hotel in Çankaya or Bilkent still needs a taxi from there. For most visitors the private transfer is simpler: it starts at the arrivals door and ends at the hotel, and the fixed price covers the whole vehicle.
What happens if my flight to Ankara Airport is delayed?
We follow the flight, not the clock. The driver's pickup at Ankara Airport is set from the live arrival time, so a delay of an hour or three changes nothing for you and costs nothing extra. Once you are through, a message on the WhatsApp thread tells the driver you are on your way out.
Do you meet late-night and early-morning flights?
Yes. The Ankara Airport to Konya transfer runs around the clock, and our WhatsApp desk is answered day and night. Tell us the flight number and we plan the pickup for the real arrival time, whatever the hour.
Which vehicle will I get for the Ankara Airport to Konya transfer?
You choose when you book: Sedan (1–3 passengers), Minivan (1–7 passengers) and Sprinter (8–13 passengers). The vans are Mercedes, Volkswagen, Ford Transit and Peugeot Traveller models, air-conditioned and with proper luggage space. If you are unsure, tell us how many passengers and bags you have and we recommend the right one.
Is the transfer private, or shared with other passengers?
Always private. We do not run shared shuttles: the car or van from Ankara Airport to Konya carries your party only, leaves when you are ready, and goes straight to your address.
Can you provide child seats?
Yes - say the ages of the children when you book and the driver brings the right child seats or boosters at no extra charge. Please mention it in the WhatsApp conversation so the correct vehicle is sent.
How much luggage can I bring?
A normal suitcase and a cabin bag per person is comfortable in every vehicle. If you are bringing more - extra cases, a stroller, sports equipment or a wheelchair - tell us on WhatsApp and we send a vehicle with the space for it.
Are tolls, parking and waiting time included in the price?
Yes. The fixed price for the Ankara Airport to Konya transfer covers the vehicle, the driver, fuel, road tolls, airport parking and the normal waiting time after your flight lands. There is nothing to pay the driver on the day unless you have added something to the booking.
Can we stop on the way from Ankara Airport to Konya?
Usually, yes - a short stop for a shop, a sim card or a photo is no problem if you mention it when booking, and a longer stop or a sightseeing detour is quoted as part of the same transfer. Tell the desk what you have in mind and they confirm it in writing.
How far in advance should I book the Ankara Airport to Konya transfer?
As soon as you have your flight - it takes a minute on WhatsApp and secures the vehicle you want. Same-day and next-day bookings are often possible too; message the desk with the flight number and they will tell you at once whether a car is available.
How do I book the Ankara Airport to Konya transfer?
Send us four things - flight number, date, how many of you, and the hotel in Konya - through the form on this page or directly on WhatsApp. You get a written confirmation with the fixed price, the vehicle and the meeting point at Ankara Airport, usually within minutes.
How and when do I pay?
Payment is arranged on WhatsApp when your booking is confirmed, in the way that suits you best. Nothing is paid before you have the written confirmation with the price, the vehicle and the meeting arrangement.
Can I change or cancel my booking?
Yes, through the same WhatsApp conversation. The terms depend on conditions such as how close to the pickup time the change is requested, so our team explains exactly what applies to your booking when you ask - always before any payment.
Which language does the driver speak?
It depends on the country, the city and the time of your transfer, so we do not promise a particular language for the driver on the Ankara Airport to Konya route. Tell us on WhatsApp which language you would prefer and we do our best to match it. The WhatsApp desk that confirms your booking and stays with you during the trip always works in Arabic and English, at any hour.
Is the transfer suitable for a wheelchair user or someone who walks slowly?
Yes. Tell us when you book and we send a vehicle with room for a folded wheelchair, ask the driver to meet you as close to the arrivals exit as Ankara Airport allows, and build in extra time at both ends. The driver helps with the bags and the door.
Can I book the return trip from Konya to Ankara Airport as well?
Of course. Send the departure flight time and the hotel, and we collect you from the door with a comfortable margin for Ankara Airport. Booking both directions together keeps everything on one confirmation, and any change of plan is handled in the same chat.
