Transfer to Defne
Landing at Çukurova, Heading for Defne
Defne lies just south of Antakya and takes its name from the ancient legend of Daphne; the green, waterfall-rich area of Harbiye is part of this district. Besides local residents, visitors include people working in Antakya who stay in Defne, or travellers pausing here before heading towards Samandağ. Çukurova Airport VIP Transfer treats the trip as one seamless line from the flight to the front door or hotel.
Addresses in the region may have changed since the 2023 earthquakes, so sharing the current neighbourhood and street when you book makes the meeting easier.
