The Side Old Town peninsula has vehicle access restrictions - not all drop-off points are the same, and not all drivers know which route applies to your accommodation. Your driver knows the correct perimeter drop-off, the permitted entry routes, and how to reach your hotel or guesthouse at the closest possible point.
The Sorgun hotel strip and Side Old Town are separate zones with different approach roads. Large Sorgun resorts have dedicated access routes that differ from the Old Town perimeter. Your driver has the right routing confirmed before departure, with the correct entrance for your stay.
If you are staying near the Temple of Apollo or the ancient theatre in Old Town, your driver takes you as far as vehicle access allows and confirms the walking route from there. For the Sorgun side, it is a full door-to-door drop at your hotel entrance - no halfway points.
Your driver monitors your actual landing time from the moment your flight is tracked. Delays are factored in automatically - no extra charge, no rebooking. The price agreed at booking is the price you pay, regardless of how the journey unfolds on the day.
Manavgat Waterfall and the river boat area are close enough to include as a stop or to serve as a direct destination in their own right. If your group wants to visit the waterfall before continuing to Side, confirm the request at booking and your driver plans the route accordingly.
This route runs approximately 63-68 km and takes around 52-60 minutes in normal conditions. The drive is straightforward - the complexity at Side is not the distance but what happens at the end: two distinct arrival zones with different access routes. Your driver knows which zone you are in before leaving the airport.
Most charter flights to Side land at Terminal 2 - domestic arrivals use Terminal 1. From the airport, the D400 runs east and holds a good pace most of the way to Manavgat. The bypass around Manavgat carries summer afternoon traffic before the road opens toward the Side turnoff and the Sorgun approach road.
Peak season runs June through September - heaviest in July and August with British, German, and Eastern European charter traffic. The Manavgat bypass slows in peak afternoons. Arrival into Side then divides: Old Town peninsula vehicles use the perimeter road, while Sorgun hotel zone traffic approaches from the east. Both routes are known - your driver routes correctly based on your confirmed destination.
Drop-off at major Sorgun strip resorts is a standard hotel entrance handover. Arriving at an Old Town guesthouse is different - your driver brings you to the closest permitted point and confirms the walk from there. Side arrival is one step more involved than most routes, and that is where local knowledge matters.
Your exact destination details are confirmed before pickup for the correct final approach in Side.
Side has two distinct drop-off zones with different access routes. Old Town guests are taken to the closest permitted access point on the peninsula — vehicle access is restricted inside the old town, and the walking distance from the drop-off point is confirmed by your driver before arrival. Sorgun resort guests get full door-to-door hotel entrance handover.
Taxis from Antalya Airport run to Side. For the Sorgun hotel zone, most standard vehicles reach the entrance without issue. For Side Old Town, the picture changes - vehicle access restrictions and narrow streets mean not every driver knows where to stop and how far they can go inside the peninsula.
A pre-booked private transfer gives you one fixed price and a driver whose routing is confirmed for your specific zone. Sorgun guests get hotel-entrance drop-off. Old Town guests get the closest permitted access point, with the walking route from there confirmed. No assumptions on the day - your driver knows where you are going before the vehicle moves.
Side is a split destination and the transfer should reflect that. If your accommodation is in Manavgat, Titreyengol, or one of the resort zones east of Old Town, the access route differs again. Confirm your address at booking and the right approach is confirmed back to you before departure.
The Side transfer zone extends to nine nearby destinations - including Manavgat transfer, Kumkoy transfer, Sorgun transfer, Titreyengol transfer, Colakli transfer, Evrenseki transfer, Gundogdu transfer, Kizilagac transfer, and Kizilot transfer. For connected routes, see also the Belek transfer to the west and the Alanya transfer to the east.

The same door-to-door service applies in both directions - your driver collects from your Old Town accommodation or Sorgun hotel entrance and gets you to the terminal in time.

The journey takes around 52-60 minutes in normal conditions. In peak season - June through September - allow up to 75 minutes, particularly for afternoon arrivals when the Manavgat bypass slows. The final approach into Side adds a few minutes depending on your zone - Old Town perimeter access and the Sorgun hotel approach are both straightforward but not identical, so your confirmed destination is factored into the timing.
Your driver monitors your actual landing time for your Side arrival, not your scheduled arrival. If your flight runs late, the driver adjusts and is still inside the arrivals hall when you come through baggage claim. There is no extra charge for delays, regardless of how long the flight runs over.
