Antalya's single tram
line starts
on the shore to the west of the center
at the Antalya
Museum near Konyaalti
Plaji (Beach) and Antalya
Beach Park (the Sheraton
Voyager and Falez hotels
are here as well).
The tram runs eastward
along the main seaside boulevard to the city center
at Kalekapisi,
a convenient gateway to Kaleiçi (Old
Antalya).
It then continues east and south and
passes Hadrian's
Gate and Karaalioglu
Park before passing near the deluxe Divan
Antalya Hotel Talya and ending
on the way to Lara
Plaji (Beach)
to the east.
There are only two trams. They run
along a single track, passing one another
at a short length of double track near Kalekapisi.
Both trams depart on the hour
and half-hour, 07:00 am to 21:00
(9:00 pm) from the termini (east
and west), and
reach
Kalekapisi between
10 and 15 minutes later (so if you
want to catch the tram at
Kalekapisi,
be there at 10 minutes past the hour
or 20 minutes before the hour). The
one-way fare is TL1.20.
The tram is comfortable and useful,
but not as frequent or fast as Antalya's dolmush
minibuses, and the tram won't help you get
to or
from the airport.
