Spread along both banks of the Orontes (Asi) River, Antakya is Hatay's administrative centre and a crossroads of cultures going back millennia. A VIP transfer from Çukurova Airport to Hatay city centre is a long intercity drive via İskenderun and the Belen pass. Arrivals include visitors heading to the mosaic museum and the Church of St Peter, technical teams working on reconstruction projects and families visiting relatives. At the end of the road, a cuisine famous for künefe awaits.
Antakya's old town consists of narrow streets on the east bank of the Asi River, leaning against the foot of Mount Habib-i Neccar, where mosques, churches and a synagogue have stood close together for centuries. The Long Bazaar is the city's commercial heart, bringing together coppersmiths, soap makers, spice sellers and künefe masters. The reconstruction that began after the earthquake has changed the city centre considerably; new roads, bridges and public buildings are being completed one after another, while work continues to preserve the old fabric. As a result, some historic buildings may be closed to visitors, so checking the current situation before you come is useful. The cuisine is not limited to künefe and tray kebab; hummus, muhammara, oruk and wild thyme salad enrich every table. Accommodation in the city keeps reopening. Summers are hot and humid, and spring and autumn are the most comfortable times to visit. In the evening, the walkways along the Asi become the centre of the city's social life. For a Çukurova Airport Hatay city centre transfer, giving your accommodation address and any institution you will visit makes planning easier.
The drive from Çukurova Airport to Hatay City Center is about 254 km by road and takes 250–300 minutes in normal traffic. At this distance your driver plans a short rest stop; for the long drive the roomy Vito VIP is the most comfortable choice.
Because of ongoing reconstruction, some streets and bridge crossings in the centre change from time to time; the driver follows the current route, so just share a clear address or location pin.
The vehicle heading to Hatay city centre leaves the airport eastwards, passes Adana on the motorway and reaches the Osmaniye junction. From there it turns south onto a long motorway stretch along the Gulf of İskenderun, with port cranes, factories and sea views passing one after another. After İskenderun, the winding climb of the Belen pass begins, and beyond the summit the Amik plain spreads out before you as a broad flatland. Running across the plain, the road enters Antakya from the north. As the route is long, a break at one of the rest areas on the gulf is recommended. Because reconstruction can cause diversions in the city, the driver uses up-to-date navigation.
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.
