Taxi & Public Transport vs Car Rental

Taxis are convenient for one-off trips, but frequent use makes them the most expensive option. Public transport is cheaper but limited by fixed routes and schedules. With Fethiye rent a car and Dalaman rent a car, you get the best of both worlds: predictable costs and complete autonomy.

When Taxis Cost More

Airport–hotel transfers plus daily sightseeing can surpass a one-day rental. Instead, reserve a practical model: Hyundai i20 or Renault Clio for city routes, and keep your daily transport cost under control.

  • Lower daily rates: Weekly bookings are priced below single-day rentals.
  • Flexible mileage: Unlimited mileage options keep route planning simple.
  • Right size, right price: Choose compact for city days, upgrade to SUV for mountain/coastal roads.
