Reach the historic mansions of Ayvalık, boutique hotels of Cunda, and the beaches of Sarımsaklı from Izmir Adnan Menderes Airport with luxury Mercedes Vito comfort.
Booking & QuoteIf you are new to this part of Turkey, Ayvalık and Cunda Island sit on the North Aegean coast, well north of the resort towns most first-time visitors know, which is exactly why the drive from Izmir Airport (ADB) runs longer than a typical İzmir-district transfer. Guests arriving on domestic and international flights are met at the terminal exit with a name board; our driver tracks your flight number from the moment you book, so if your inbound flight runs late, the car simply waits at no extra charge. We run this route 24/7, including late-night arrivals, so an evening landing is never a problem.
Handling your luggage is part of the job. Our air-conditioned Mercedes Vito vehicles have generous space for suitcases, a pushchair or bulky sports gear, and we confirm the right vehicle size with you before booking if you are travelling as a larger family or group.
Pricing is straightforward: the fare we confirm on WhatsApp at booking is the fare you pay at the end of the trip. Traffic, a late-night arrival or fuel costs are never used as an excuse for a surprise add-on, our fixed-price guarantee holds regardless. Share your hotel name and flight details and we send back a clear, all-inclusive quote.
Whether you are heading to one of Ayvalık's restored stone mansions, a boutique hotel on Cunda Island, or a beachfront resort in Sarımsaklı, we cover one of the longest coastal routes out of İzmir in comfort. Our drivers know the region well, are happy to make a short stop if you need one, and put guest comfort first on what is a longer but genuinely scenic drive.

Message Us, Get Price FastAyvalık is one of the North Aegean's most distinctive coastal towns, built up from Ottoman-era stone houses along narrow lanes, with olive-covered hillsides rising behind it. The drive out from the airport runs through Bergama and Dikili, with olive groves and coastline for company most of the way, which is why an Ayvalık transfer runs longer than trips to nearer İzmir districts but rewards you with a genuinely scenic route.
Cunda Island (also called Alibey Island) is connected to the mainland by a causeway, so our vehicle drives straight across; no ferry or boat is needed. The tavernas around its old fishing harbour, its stone mansions and the walking trails inside Ortunç National Park make Cunda a draw for history lovers and nature walkers alike.
Local cooking here leans on olive oil: artichokes, broad bean paste, stuffed mussels and fresh fish are regional staples, and the toasted kaşar-cheese sandwich known as Ayvalık tostu is a local classic worth trying while you are in town.
Sarımsaklı, with its long sandy beach and shallow water, is a popular base for families with children, and its location close to both central Ayvalık and Cunda makes both easy to reach for a day out.
Summer brings the busiest crowds along with boat trips and island excursions, while the cooler months let you explore Ayvalık's historic streets at a quieter pace; our VIP transfer runs to the same standard whichever season you travel in. We see a wide range of guests on this route, from honeymooners and heritage travellers to gastronomy groups and families after a beach holiday, and whichever hotel you have booked in Ayvalık, Cunda or Sarımsaklı, we take you there in comfort straight from the airport.
