By car to Alanya

Planning a self-drive trip from Antalya to Alanya and wondering how to get the car? Rent-Trip offers car rental in Antalya for a trip to Alanya with 65 cars available, from ₺1,893 a day, and we deliver the vehicle to any address in Antalya and to Antalya Airport (AYT).

Car rental in Antalya for a trip to Alanya and what it covers

We keep 65 cars on this page, from ₺1,893 to ₺7,714 a day, VAT included, and the car is brought to your address rather than collected from a counter. That is the practical shape of car rental in Antalya for a trip to Alanya: you land, we hand over the keys where you are staying, and the delivery address, date and time are agreed with a manager before the booking is fixed. The rest of this page walks through the route itself, the classes worth choosing, the paperwork, what the rate includes and the rules that apply on the road east.

How far the drive is and how long it takes

The D400 is the main road from the city to Alanya, and the run of 137.1 km takes about 1 hour 50 minutes without stops. The distance sits in the region of 130–140 km depending on where you start, and the road alternates between dual carriageway and two-lane sections as it passes Serik and Manavgat. A new Antalya–Alanya Otoyolu of 122 km between Serik and Konaklı is under construction, around 30% ready as of August 2026, so for now every route uses the D400. In our experience the single biggest factor is departure time: leaving before 9:00 keeps you ahead of the traffic building up on the eastern edge of the city and puts you in Alanya before the afternoon heat.

Which car suits the drive

Automatic is the default here — 60 of the 65 cars on this page have it, and the cheapest class starts at ₺1,893 a day.

For a late or night drive on the D400, an automatic diesel is the calmer choice: an automatic gearbox saves effort, though diesel costs more per litre than petrol. Diesel models on the page include the Dacia Duster at ₺2,677 and the Renault Megane Sedan at ₺2,956, both automatic.

What the page answers next

The sections below follow the order a booking actually takes, so you can read only the part you need.

• Route and timing: the D400, the Otoyolu under construction, and why an early start matters more than a fast car.
• Classes and models: Comfort, Crossover, SUV and Minivans broken down by seats, fuel and gearbox, with the 46 five-seat and 13 nine-seat cars counted separately.
• Booking with a manager: passport, entry stamp, home licence and an IDP if your licence is not in Latin script, plus delivery and the full-to-full fuel rule.
• What the rate covers: VAT included pricing, compulsory traffic insurance on every registered vehicle, and the weekly rate at ₺11,358 against ₺39,753 for a month.
• Rules on the road: speed limits, the absence of tolled motorways in the province on 2026 data, fuel at about ₺79 a litre and the 15 November–15 April winter tyre window.
• Stops worth making: Side and Manavgat on the way, and how a single day differs from a multi-day loop.

Pick the class by the number of people and bags, not by the badge — a nine-seat minibus carrying two people costs more per day and parks worse than a Crossover that does the same journey in the same time.

Picking a car for car rental in Antalya for a trip to Alanya

Sixty-five vehicles sit on this page, spread across four classes, and the right one for the D400 depends on how many people travel with you and how much luggage goes in the boot. Comfort and Crossover cover the everyday case; SUV and Minivans carry families, groups and gear. We keep 60 of the 65 cars on automatic, so the drive east stays relaxed whatever you pick.

Comfort and Crossover — the everyday choice

Comfort holds 16 cars starting at ₺1,893 a day, Crossover 15 cars from ₺2,183, and between them they cover the bulk of what travellers ask us for. The Kia XCeed is the cheapest car on the page at ₺1,893 daily — a 1.5-litre petrol hatchback with 140 hp, automatic, five seats. The Fiat Egea Cross follows at ₺1,937 with a 1.0-litre 100 hp manual, and the Volkswagen Taigo at ₺2,183 with a 1.0-litre 110 hp automatic. Higher up, the SEAT Leon (₺2,616), Škoda Octavia (₺2,794) and Renault Megane Sedan (₺2,956) add more choice in Comfort, all automatic. On the climb out of the city towards Serik compare engine size and power across the models on this page — worth the small step up if you plan to overtake on single-carriageway stretches.

SUV and Minivans for families and groups

• SUV class: 17 cars from ₺2,523, including the MG HS with a 1.5-litre 170 hp petrol engine and the Dacia Duster with a 1.5-litre 115 hp diesel.
• Minivans class: 17 cars from ₺2,240, the widest spread on the page and the only class that reaches nine seats.
• Nine-seat options: the Toyota Proace Verso at ₺2,240 a day with a 2.0-litre 150 hp diesel, plus the Citroën SpaceTourer, Hyundai Staria and Peugeot Expert Combi further up.
• Seven seats: the Dacia Jogger at ₺4,081 a day and the Mercedes-Benz V-Class at ₺7,714, the most expensive vehicle here.
• Hybrid: five cars run hybrid, among them the Opel Frontera at ₺2,661 and the Toyota Corolla at ₺3,339, both automatic.

Seats, fuel and gearbox across the fleet

Manual gearboxes number just five across the whole fleet, so if you specifically want to change gear yourself, say so when the booking is agreed — the automatic pool is what most travellers end up with. Petrol dominates at 41 cars, which suits the route: filling stations along the D400 are frequent, and diesel at 19 cars is the minority choice and costs more per litre. For a group of seven or more, book the Minivans class early — only 19 cars here carry more than five people, and the nine-seaters go first in summer.

Booking car rental in Antalya for a trip to Alanya with a manager

We keep the booking simple: you tell us the dates, the car class and where the car should be brought, and a manager confirms the details before anything is fixed. Our fleet on this page runs to 65 cars from ₺1,893 to ₺7,714 a day, VAT included, and the whole arrangement is settled in one conversation rather than a queue at a desk.

Documents a foreign renter needs

• Passport: the main driver's passport, plus the entry stamp showing when you entered the country — the six-month clock for a foreign licence starts from that date.
• Home driving licence: the licence issued in your own country, valid and carried by the person who will actually drive.
• International Driving Permit: required if your licence is not in Latin script; carry it alongside the original, not instead of it.
• Credit card in the main driver's name: needed for the security hold, with the amount set out in the rental agreement.
• Age and experience: the requirements rise with the class of car, so a Minivan or SUV is not booked on the same terms as a Comfort hatchback.

A foreigner may drive in Turkey on a licence issued abroad for no longer than six months from the date of entry; after that the licence must be exchanged for a Turkish one at any nüfus müdürlüğü. In our experience the six-month line catches people who arrive on a long stay and only think about it in month five — check the entry stamp before you plan a second long rental.

Delivery, hand-over and return

We bring the car to any address in the city and to Antalya Airport (AYT) and Gazipaşa-Alanya Airport (GZP). There is no counter to find and no shuttle to wait for: the vehicle arrives where you are, clean and with a full tank. The delivery address, the date and the time are agreed with a manager before the booking is fixed, and delivery outside the places we list is arranged case by case and not promised on the site.

Fuel works full-to-full. The car leaves with a full tank and comes back with one; if it does not, the missing fuel and a refuelling service fee are charged as set out in the rental agreement. We do not offer a pre-paid tank or a full-to-empty option, so the simplest habit is to fill up on the D400 approach before you turn back into the city. Return goes to the same delivery point at the date and time in the contract — a different drop-off point may carry an additional fee, again set out in the agreement.

What the manager settles before the keys change hands

Booking with Rent-Trip means one person owns your case from the first message to the return. The manager confirms the class and the exact model, checks that the dates work against the 65 cars available, and writes the delivery point into the contract. Anything the site does not state as a figure — the security hold, the excess, a fee for returning elsewhere — is agreed when booking and written into the rental agreement, so you see it before you commit rather than at hand-over.

Two practical notes from our own bookings. First, automatic cars are 60 of the 65 on this page, but the five manual ones go early in peak weeks — if you specifically want a manual, say so in the first message. Second, the delivery slot is the part people underestimate: name the hour you actually land or check in, not the hour you hope to, because the car is scheduled around the time written in the contract.

What is included in car rental in Antalya for a trip to Alanya

Every rate on this page already includes VAT, the Turkish VAT of 20%, so the figure you see against a car is the figure the booking is built on. The plan for this section is simple: what the rate covers, what the law adds on top of it, and where the line sits between the price and the conditions that are set out in the agreement.

VAT included and compulsory insurance

All our prices are VAT included, and every vehicle in the fleet carries compulsory traffic insurance — compulsory third-party liability cover that Turkish law requires on every registered car. A vehicle without a valid policy cannot legally be on the road, so the cover travels with the car rather than being an optional extra you add at the counter. What the rate does not settle is the security hold: a credit card in the main driver's name is required for it, and the amount is set out in the rental agreement. On a longer trip that detail matters more than it looks — a hold tied to a debit card can stall the hand-over, so bring a credit card in the main driver's name and confirm the hold when you book.

Longer bookings and what the rate covers

• Weekly rate: from ₺11,358 for seven days, which is the daily rate multiplied by six — the same car, a lower cost per day.
• Monthly rate: from ₺39,753 for thirty days, calculated as the daily rate multiplied by twenty-one.
• Per-day pricing: stays in force for shorter trips, and the class you pick sets the starting figure — Comfort from ₺1,893, Crossover from ₺2,183, SUV from ₺2,523, Minivans from ₺2,240.
• Fuel: the car comes clean with a full tank and goes back full — full-to-full; anything missing is charged with a refuelling service fee as set out in the rental agreement.

The weekly and monthly rates are lower per day than the daily rate, and the arithmetic is worth doing before you fix dates: six days at the daily figure cost the same as a weekly booking, and for 25 days or more the monthly calculation comes out cheaper. In our experience the travellers who overpay are the ones who book four or five separate days without ever asking what a week costs.

What sits outside the rate

Documents are the renter's side of the deal: a passport, an entry stamp, your home driving licence and an International Driving Permit if that licence is not in Latin script. Age and driving-experience requirements rise with the class of car, so a Minivan or an SUV asks more of the driver than a Comfort hatchback. Anything beyond that — the deposit, mileage, what the insurance covers past the compulsory policy — is agreed when booking and written into the agreement, not quoted here. Ask about it before the dates are fixed, because those are the terms that decide whether a cheap week stays cheap.

Driving car rental in Antalya for a trip to Alanya on the D400

The D400 is the road that makes car rental in Antalya for a trip to Alanya practical: 137.1 km along the coast, about 1 hour 50 minutes without stops. The Antalya–Alanya Otoyolu under construction (122 km, Serik to Konaklı) was about 30% ready in August 2026, so for now every route runs on the D400 and the older coastal road through Side and Manavgat.

Speed limits and tolls on the route

Signs on the spot override the table, and speeding fines climb steeply on this drive: under article 51 of law 2918, as amended by law 7574 of 12.02.2026, exceeding the limit by 6–10 km/h inside a town costs 2,000 TL, while 66 km/h and more over costs 30,000 TL plus a 90-day licence suspension. There are no tolled motorways (otoyol) in the province as of 2026 — the KGM inventory lists none for TR611 — so no HGS gate stands between the city and Alanya, though HGS is still needed for bridges and motorway gates elsewhere. A radar detector in the car is fined at 185,000 TL to the owner, so leave it at home.

Fuel, fines and winter tyres

• Fuel: petrol (V/Max Kurşunsuz 95, Petrol Ofisi) was about 78.6 TL a litre on 30.10.2026, diesel 99.3 TL and LPG 41.4 TL; diesel costs more than petrol, which matters when you pick a class.
• Phones: using a mobile phone while moving is 5,000 TL under article 73, 10,000 TL for a second offence within a year and 20,000 TL plus 30 days without a licence from the third.
• Seat belts: 2,500 TL to the driver or passenger, and 5,000 TL to the driver for a child under 15 without the proper restraint, per article 78.
• Winter tyres: compulsory from 15 November to 15 April for vehicles used in intercity passenger and freight transport, foreign-registered ones included; a private car is not named in that list, and the provincial governor decides whether to apply the rule locally.
• Alcohol: above 0.50 promille in a private car means 25,000 TL and a six-month suspension, doubling to 50,000 TL and two years on a repeat within five years.

Fuel is one Petrol Ofisi price across the province, and the full-to-full rule on our cars means the tank you return is the tank you took. Who pays tolls, congestion charges and penalty notices is agreed when booking, not assumed.

Our advice from practice: leave before 09:00. The westward commuter traffic around the city clears by then, and you reach Alanya before the afternoon heat and the tour buses at the roadside stops.

Stops that make car rental in Antalya for a trip to Alanya worth it

The drive to Alanya is short enough to be a straight run, yet the D400 puts three good stops directly on your way, and a car turns each of them into a decision you make on the spot rather than a bus timetable you plan around.

Side and Manavgat on the way

Side and Manavgat sit almost exactly halfway along the D400, roughly 75 km east of the city, which makes them the natural first break of the drive. Side's ruins — the theatre, the colonnaded street, the Temple of Apollo on the point — are reached by a short turn off the highway, and Manavgat's waterfall is a short drive inland. Both are busy by midday in season. In our experience, an early arrival at Side gives more choice of parking and cooler air; the heat builds towards noon. Fuel up at Manavgat rather than waiting for Alanya — the Petrol Ofisi price is the same across the province, so pick any convenient station.

A day trip versus a multi-day route

• One day, Alanya and back: a Comfort car is enough — 16 of them from ₺1,893, with the Kia XCeed at ₺1,893 a day the cheapest on this page.
• Two or three days with luggage: a Crossover such as the Volkswagen Taigo at ₺2,183 or the Nissan Juke at ₺2,466 gives you five seats and an automatic gearbox for the D400.
• A group of six or seven: the seven-seat Dacia Jogger at ₺4,081 a day, or the Peugeot 5008 at ₺4,690 if you want SUV height with the third row.
• Eight or nine people: the Minivans class starts at ₺2,240 with the nine-seat Toyota Proace Verso, and the eight-seat Fiat Ulysse is ₺4,281 a day.

Making the stops work with the booking

The delivery address, date and time are agreed with a manager before the booking is fixed, so if you want the car at your hotel in Lara at 07:30 to be past Side before the coaches, say so at that stage rather than on the morning. We bring the car with a full tank and it goes back full — fill up before you re-enter the city, since the tank you return is the tank you took. Anything beyond that — returning to a different point, an extra day mid-trip — is set out in the rental agreement, and the manager can talk it through when you book.

Why travellers choose car rental in Antalya for a trip to Alanya with us

Rent-Trip hands over a self-drive car for the drive to Alanya with the keys already at your address: 65 vehicles from ₺1,893 to ₺7,714 a day, VAT included. Delivery and collection happen at the address, date and time agreed with a manager before the booking is fixed, so the first hour of your trip is not spent hunting for a counter.

What travellers tend to notice first is the fleet itself. Of the 65 cars, 60 come with an automatic gearbox and only 5 with a manual, which matters on the 137 km, roughly two-hour run east along the D400. Fuel splits 41 petrol, 19 diesel and 5 hybrid, and the hybrid option — Toyota Corolla at ₺3,339 or Renault Austral at ₺4,348 a day — suits drivers who prefer it over a return leg of roughly 275 km. Seats run from 5 up to 9, so the same booking works for a couple and for a group of nine. In our experience the request that decides the class is luggage, not headcount: tell the manager how many large cases you carry before the class is fixed.

Three habits make a booking run smoothly:

• Book the class, not the model: the exact car is confirmed when the booking is agreed, so state seats, gearbox and fuel rather than a single model name.
• Agree the delivery point early: the address, date and time are settled with a manager before the booking is fixed, and returning to a different point carries a fee set out in the rental agreement.
• Bring a card in the main driver's name: the security hold is taken on it, and the amount is written into the rental agreement rather than quoted on this page.

A foreign renter needs a passport, an entry stamp, a home driving licence and an International Driving Permit if the licence is not in Latin script; a licence issued abroad is valid for driving here for no more than six months from the date of entry. Longer trips price better per day — a week from ₺11,358 against seven daily rates, a month from ₺39,753 — and every car leaves with a full tank and comes back full. Where a condition is not on this page, it is agreed when booking.
