We have created this link to give our clients some information and options on a number of the local travel services available to help you enjoy your stay more at Sakli Vadi. You will find information on …..
However, many of our clients like to simply book and rent the cottages from us. They then wish to make their other travel arrangements themselves. This we are naturally more than happy for people to do. Whichever way you wish to make your arrangements, we hope the information in this link proves helpful. Airport Transfers If clients wish us to, we can arrange airport transfers, from either Dalaman or Antalya Airports. We normally arrange small air conditioned saloon cars that can carry up to three persons. But, for larger parties, we can arrange mini buses that carry up to seven persons. Our regular drivers speak a little English and they will deliver you directly to the door of your cottage, where our Manager will be waiting to greet you and to show you around. The journey from Dalaman to the cottages takes between 45 and 50 minutes. Just e mail Sandy or Jon at info@sakli-vadi.com and we will quote you the prevailing transfer rate and make all the arrangements for you. Car Hire Our cottages are located in the farming village of Kinali, at the western end of the Kaya Valley. We do recommend our clients to hire a car during their stays with us. It gives maximum flexibility and convenience and allows you to explore the area at your leisure and to come and go as you please. For the last eight years we have recommended………. Explora Travel & Car Hire ......... to all our clients. Explora is owned and operated by Cath from the UK and her husband Can (pronounced Jan) who is Turkish. Their base of operations is in the next village to us in the valley. We can thoroughly recommend them for their high levels of service and the excellent quality of their fleet of cars and jeeps. As well as car hire, Explora travel can book excursions and local tours to places of interest for our clients during their stays at the cottages. We can make all the arrangements on your behalf prior to your arrival. We can arrange for the vehicle to be waiting for you when you arrive at your cottage. You can rent for the full duration of your holiday or just by the day, if you prefer. We can make these arrangements for you or if you wish, you can contact Explora directly. Their contact details are ……. Contact : Cath or Can Inanir
Local Bus Services And Taxis If you prefer not to hire a car, then there are local buses and taxis available. Turkey operates a very cheap and efficient bus service that links all the villages and local towns together. The buses are called Dolmus (pronounced dolemush, which literally means stuffed in Turkish !). The dolmus service operates in the valley and the buses run roughly every half an hour through the village. You can get on and off wherever you like and it is a fixed price charge. They are great fun and extremely cost effective. In the village there are several taxis. Just ask our Manager to make the arrangements for you or to help you with the Dolmus. Pedal Power The
Kaya Valley is a beautiful place to bicycle around. For those of our
clients who wish to be a little more active during their stay, we have
mountain bikes available for hire, at the nominal rate of Gbp. 5.00
a day, per bike. We store the bikes away from the cottages when they
are not in use, so all you have to do is ask our Manager and the bikes
will be delivered to your cottage ready to go ! Dalaman Airport has recently been expanded and now operates both charter and schedule services all year round. There are an ever increasing number of airlines using the airport. Please find listed below the charter operators with the largest number of flights into Dalaman, from many UK regional airports, as well as from London.
There are a number of smaller charter operators flying into Dalaman. It is not possible to list them all as they change their operations from time to time, as do the larger companies listed above. Turkish
Airlines have daily scheduled flights to Istanbul from London Heathrow
and Manchester airports. You can then connect with their daily domestic
service to Dalaman. The flight time is approximately 50 minutes from
Istanbul. |
