Transfer to Çamlıyayla
Climbing into the Taurus: Çamlıyayla
Çamlıyayla, long known as Namrun, is Mersin's highland district in the Taurus Mountains. People go there to escape the summer heat of the coast, to hike through forest and plateau scenery, to see historic traces such as Namrun Castle, or to visit family in the mountain villages. Çukurova Airport is in Tarsus, so the way up is a winding road rising from the plain. Çukurova Airport VIP Transfer greets you at arrivals with a name sign and sends a driver who knows mountain roads straight to your plateau stay.
How to Get to Çamlıyayla
Because it is a mountain road, travel time depends on traffic, weather and conditions, and winter can bring ice and fog at higher altitudes. Your options:
- VIP transfer – no changes between the terminal and a plateau house, with a driver used to the bends.
- Shuttle plus minibus – you get off at a stop near Tarsus and continue up the mountain road by minibus or taxi; plateau services can be limited.
- Taxi – on mountain roads the metered fare depends on distance and conditions.
- Rental car – possible for plateau trips, but the bends and gradients call for experience.
Leave the Steering to Someone Else on the Bends
Planning departures and connections for the mountain road to Çamlıyayla is hard. Choose a VIP transfer instead of Havamaş and relax: a driver who knows the road takes you right to your plateau house while you enjoy the view. A private car also copes with picnic and camping gear, and you can agree on a rest stop together.
Mountain Road: Shuttle or Private Car?

|---|---|---|
| Greeting | Find the pick-up yourself | Name sign at arrivals |

Why a Private Transfer Fits the Highlands
- Winding road: leave the driving to someone else and enjoy the scenery.
- Picnic and camping gear: bags, blankets and food for a group fit in one vehicle.
- Sparse transport: services to mountain settlements can be few; you choose the time.
- Delays: flights are tracked, the driver waits for the real landing, and the price stays the same.
Preparing for Çamlıyayla
The plateau can be noticeably cooler than the coast, even in summer evenings. In winter, road conditions at altitude can change, so check the situation before travelling and put your lodging address and phone number in the booking. Some highland houses may not be on paved roads; agree the drop-off point with the driver beforehand. Enter your flight number and passenger count, and pay in the vehicle by cash or card, or by bank transfer.
