Getting Around Antalya: Walkability, Public Transit & Biking

Walkability

78
Excellent

Antalya's central areas, particularly the Kaleiçi old town, are very walkable with numerous amenities such as restaurants, shops, and tourist attractions within a short distance. The city center is well-structured for pedestrians, making it easy for travelers to complete daily errands on foot. However, the city's vastness means some areas are better accessed by public transit, and the tourist-heavy zones can feel crowded at times.

Public Transit

72
Excellent

Antalya has a reliable public transit system including buses, trams, and dolmuş that effectively connect different parts of the city. The Antray tram line is especially favored for its route from the airport to the city center, which is convenient for travelers. While there isn’t a metro system, the combination of existing public transit options provides comprehensive coverage. The AntalyaKart system simplifies fare payments, making travel around the city straightforward.

Bikeability

Okay

Antalya is gradually enhancing its bike-friendliness, featuring some dedicated bike lanes that are particularly appealing along coastal areas. However, the bike infrastructure still has room for improvement, with gaps in the network. Traffic and uneven terrain can pose challenges, so it's not universally accommodating for cycling. Despite this, there are enjoyable cycling routes for those interested in exploring the coast and beyond, especially in areas with established bike lanes.
