What to expect on the journey from AYT to Kargicak
Kargicak sits approximately 140 km east of Antalya Airport, past Alanya. The drive typically takes around 125 minutes along the main D400 coastal highway. Your driver will collect you directly from the arrivals terminal, assist with your luggage, and drive you straight to your resort or private accommodation without any stops for other passengers.
The route passes through several major coastal districts along the Turkish Riviera, including Belek, Side, and central Alanya. For most of the trip, you will travel on a smooth dual carriageway running parallel to the Mediterranean coast, offering pleasant views of the sea on one side and the Taurus Mountains on the other.
Travel times and traffic throughout the day
While the average transfer time is 125 minutes, the exact duration varies depending on the time of day you land. Early morning and late night transfers often take closer to 115 minutes because traffic through Antalya city and central Alanya is very light.
During peak daytime hours, particularly between 12:00 and 17:00 in midsummer, traffic can build up near busy junctions around Manavgat and central Alanya. In these conditions, the drive can take around 135 to 140 minutes. Because we track your flight in real time, your driver adjusts to any schedule changes and will be waiting in the arrivals area regardless of landing delays.
About Kargicak
Kargicak is situated on the far eastern edge of the Alanya region, just beyond Mahmutlar. Known for its tranquil atmosphere, extensive banana groves, and backdrop of pine-covered hills, it offers a distinctly quieter setting than the bustling centre of Alanya. The area features long stretches of pebble beach, exceptionally clear water, and modern residential developments alongside luxury seaside resorts.
