Use your travel day wisely
The journey from Göreme to Antalya is not short, but you can ensure you maximize your travel time by turning simple intercity transit into a sightseeing tour of the Turkish countryside. Stop along the way and explore the countryâs heritage in places such as the Saratli Underground City, a complex of over 40 rooms constructed in the Byzantine area and sheltering citizens during the Crusades and Arab raids.
### Be mindful of appropriate dress
With the exception of beaches, pools, and nightclubs, dress in Antalya is generally more modest.

Things to do when you get to Antalya
After you cross the distance from Göreme to Antalya, you are spoiled for choice of activities. From historical treasures to natural splendor, Antalya has something for every traveler.
Visit Hadrianâs Gate
This grand entrance to Antalyaâs old city is a remarkably preserved relic, erected in 130 AD to welcome Emperor Hadrian's visit. It is located right off of AtatĂŒrk Boulevard and offers a view of the port cityâs Roman past.
### Stroll around the Antalya Museum
Explore the largest museum in the country for a rewarding walk through the history and art of the region, complete with 13 exhibition halls featuring archeological relics and art created through the ages.
### Hike near the Lower Duden Waterfalls
If you have had your fill of luxuriating at one of Antalyaâs many golden sand beaches, hike to a viewpoint of the thundering Duden waterfalls as they cascade off of the cliffs into the sea below. Or, for a more leisurely option, take a boat tour to view the falls from the water with ample photo opportunities.
When is the best time to visit Antalya?
Antalya boasts a warm Mediterranean climate that draws most of its tourism during the sun-soaked summer months (temperatures around 90°F/32°C). To find lower prices, fewer crowds, and less sweltering sun, consider a trip during the spring or autumn shoulder seasons (temperatures around 75°F/23.8°C).
The sea stays warm enough in this region that you can still enjoy the beaches into October. However, it is important to keep in mind that easing into the winter months from November onward can be quite rainy despite their mild temperatures (around 61°F/16°C).

âI used this service for a transfer from Split in Croatia to Perast Montenegro. My experience was exceptional. My driver Bojan was helpful, informative and ensured my journey was comfortable and enjoyable. I highly recommend the service.â
âWe were extremely satisfied with the quality of service we received from Day Trip. We had two Day Trip rides on August 31 from Athens to Lefkada and September 7 from Lefkada back to Athens. Both trips included stops at scenic sites in Greece. Both drivers were excellent and accommodating. However, weâd especially like to recognize Panos Peppas, who was our driver from Lefkada to Athens. Panos was incredibly nice & pleasant and delivered outstanding customer service, which included handling all of luggage, providing us with cold waters throughout the trip, providing us protein bars, providing us with printed materials on the Corinth Canal (one of scenic stops), looking up and providing us with terminal & gate info for our flight back home and providing us with a recipe for tzatziki.â

âWe absolutely love this company and have used it many times over the years to get from A to B without the hassle of hiring a car ourselves. Excellent drivers every time. Efficient and professional. Itâs worth every penny and we can honestly recommend Day Trip to everyone. Itâs 5 star rating is well deserved.â
âWe traveled from Nuremberg to Munich in a beautiful Audi. Driver picked us at our hotel at the exact time requested. Got us to Munich in plenty of time for our next tour. Driver made sure we were comfortableâ
âGonzalo from daytrip was our driver and he was absolutely amazing. He went over and beyond trying to locate us as our service wasn't so good on our phones. He patiently awaited our arrival to the lobby so he could take us from Tulum Dreams Resort to our other hotel in cancun an hour and a half away near the airport prior to our departure flight home. He was polite, respectful and kind. Made sure we were comfortable during our long ride. Fast and to the point. I recommend this company as finding a one way ride from Tulum to Cancun isn't easy or cheap and this company provides a great service for a great price. I will definitely be using them again whenever I'm in the Cancun/Tulum area. Thank you DayTrip and Gonzola.â
âWe were picked up by Marianna to drive us from Heraklion to Chania. The weather was terrible & due to this Marianna arrived a few minutes late. She contacted me to advise of this. Marianna lives in Chana and she made our trip very interesting by informing us of local things to do and see in Chania. Marianna is a safe driver and we all felt comfortable with the speed she drove at and how good her driving was in heavy rain. She is a lovely person with fluent English. We highly recommend Daytrips and if you are in Heraklion or Chania please make sure you ask for Marianna.â
âUsed the service to go from Luxor to Hurghada, Egypt. Ahmed H was our driver and he was perfect. The car was new, clean, he had water and snacks for us, and accommodated our stops. Great service from him and would recommend it.â
âUsed Daytrip for two rides in Mexico, which were both great. So comfortable, and we arrived at each of our destinations at a great time. Both were incredible drivers, and we felt so safe. One of our drivers, Miguel, also played the best music! Will definitely use Daytrip on our next trip to Mexico.â
âWe did not know what to expect with this trip and booked from Australia. We were initially looking for an easy way to travel from Granada to Malaga. We decided not to waste the opportunity to see something additional on our way. Miguel certainly exceeded our expectations. His English was excellent (unfortunately we speak very little Spanish), and he was very friendly and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed hearing about the regions as we passed through and also discussing some of the local ways. Miguel took us to Antequera as planned and ensured we were able to easily get our tickets to the attractions without any sense of rushing us. We were picked up and dropped off punctually and really enjoyed our trip. Hopefully we will return to Spain and we can use this service again sometime.â
âWe used the service twice while in Thailand. Extremely prompt and efficient customer service. Best rate being offered in Chiang Mai for the travels. Polite, punctual, professional and English speaking drivers. Clean, comfortable vehicles. Being a regular visitor to Thailand, this was hands down the best service. Most pleased with the company. I hope it sustains the excellence of service that was rendered to us.â
