How much does a taxi cost in Bodrum, Turkey?

To estimate your fare, check the distance on a map and apply the standard rate: 150 TRY flag fall plus 50 TRY per km. Convert the total to your currency as needed.

If you ask your hotel for a 'transfer', they'll arrange an expensive private transfer. Instead, ask them to call a regular yellow taxi — it will arrive at the standard metered rate.

Many hotels keep a printed price list at reception showing fixed yellow taxi fares to popular destinations. Drivers carry the same list in their car — prices are consistent.

The official yellow taxi stand at Bodrum Airport is located opposite the domestic arrivals terminal, next to the bus stop. The fixed fare to Bodrum city centre is 270 TRY, regardless of time of day or traffic.

Near the airport bus stop there is a private taxi kiosk advertising a fare of €18 to the airport. These are unofficial operators, so the actual price may differ.

The official yellow taxi rate is the same throughout Bodrum and surrounding villages: 150 TRY flag fall, then 50 TRY per km. Always specify that you want to go by the meter to avoid being quoted a higher fixed price.
