Antalya is one of the few destinations in Europe where open-top driving makes sense for the majority of the year. With over 300 days of sunshine, a coastal road that stretches from Lara and Kundu in the east to Konyaalt\u0131 in the west, and mountain scenery that opens up the moment you leave the city, hiring a convertible in Antalya is not an indulgence \u2014 it is simply the best way to see the region.<\/p>\n
Most visitors to Antalya spend their first day by the pool and their second day wishing they had a car. The resort zones of Lara, Kundu and Belek are well-serviced by taxis and shuttles, but the moment you decide to drive to Aspendos, Side, the K\u00f6pr\u00fcl\u00fc Canyon or the old city walls of Antalya itself, having your own vehicle changes everything.<\/p>\n
A convertible adds a layer to that experience that a standard economy car simply cannot. The coastal road between Antalya city and Side \u2014 particularly the stretch passing through Serik and Manavgat \u2014 is one of the most scenic drives in Turkey. In an open-top car, with the Taurus Mountains to the north and the Mediterranean to the south, it becomes genuinely memorable.<\/p>\n
Antalya Car Hire operates a carefully maintained premium fleet available for hire across Antalya, Lara, Kundu, Konyaalt\u0131, Belek, Side and Alanya. Current models available include:<\/p>\n
Convertible hire:<\/strong> Fiat 500 Cabrio \u2014 compact, easy to park in the old city, and ideal for coastal driving.<\/p>\n Executive saloon hire:<\/strong> Audi A3, BMW 520, Mercedes E-Class \u2014 suited to business travellers, airport arrivals and guests who prefer a quieter, more private drive.<\/p>\n All vehicles are delivered to your hotel or to Antalya Airport (AYT) Terminal 1 or Terminal 2.

The road rises sharply after Serik and opens into pine forest \u2014 one of the most rewarding drives in the region for those who want something beyond the coast.<\/p>\n Konyaalt\u0131 to Antalya Old Town:<\/strong> Only 8 kilometres but worth doing slowly. The Atat\u00fcrk Boulevard runs parallel to the sea and connects the western beach to the old harbour \u2014 Kalei\u00e7i \u2014 where narrow Ottoman streets make parking a challenge and foot exploration a pleasure.<\/p>\n Lara Beach to D\u00fcden Waterfalls:<\/strong> A short 15-kilometre drive through the Muratpa\u015fa district. The upper D\u00fcden Falls are accessible by car and make an easy afternoon trip from any Lara or Kundu hotel.<\/p>\n Minimum age:<\/strong> Drivers must be at least 21 years old.
