Most people heading to Balıkesir (with both Marmara and Aegean shores) are bound for summer homes in Ayvalık, Cunda or around the Gulf of Edremit. A VIP transfer from Çukurova Airport to Balıkesir suits families holidaying at the foot of the Kaz Mountains, people working in the olive oil and dairy trades, and those visiting military units. It is a very long drive from the south to the northwest, and the route is set for either the gulf coast or the city centre.
Balıkesir is a large province, so passengers' destinations vary widely. On the Marmara coast, Erdek and Bandırma stand out for island crossings and port trade; ferries to Avşa and Marmara islands depart from this shore. In the south, Akçay and Altınoluk at the foot of the Kaz Mountains are loved by families for their fresh air and seaside promenades. Gönen is a thermal town known for its spas. The provincial centre is a busy city of farming, livestock and dairy trade, with a university and military institutions. Local cuisine is known for höşmerim, Susurluk ayran and dishes cooked in olive oil. In summer the coastal towns host a large holiday-home population, while out of season they become very quiet. The climate is mild on the coast and colder and wetter inland in winter. The olive harvest begins in autumn, bringing a busy period to the villages around the gulf. The hiking trails of the Kaz Mountains are popular with nature lovers in spring and autumn.
The drive from Çukurova Airport to Balıkesir is about 1090 km by road and takes 715–845 minutes in normal traffic. This is a long intercity journey: rest stops and driver breaks are planned together when you book.
Seaside complexes along the Gulf of Edremit are very busy in summer; adding the complex name and the nearest main road helps the driver find the right entrance.
The route heads north from the airport, crosses the Taurus at Pozantı on the motorway and continues west across the Konya plain. After the Afyon area it enters the rolling land of inner Aegean, where wheat fields give way to olive groves and wooded hills. Depending on your destination, the route bends either towards the Marmara coast or the Gulf of Edremit. As it is a very long journey from one end of the country to the other, regular breaks are taken and an overnight stop can be arranged on request. On summer weekends traffic can build near the coast, and the driver suggests a departure time accordingly. Water, blankets and charging are always ready on board.
On a long drive, boot space and legroom matter most: the E-Class for 1–3 people, the Vito VIP for 4–6, and the Vito or Sprinter for larger families and groups. Current prices for each vehicle class are in the table on this page, where you can pick a vehicle and book directly.
