The Complete Guide to Coach Hire in Turkey
All the essential details for a safe, legal, and comfortable group holiday or corporate trip.
Did You Know?
Turkey boasts one of the youngest and most modern coach fleets in Europe. Most of our fleet consists of domestically manufactured Mercedes and MAN vehicles, equipped with the latest safety technology.
1. Determine Your Vehicle Needs
Your group size, itinerary, and luggage capacity are key factors. Choosing the right vehicle, from a 16-seater VIP minibus to a 54-seater luxury coach, ensures comfort and cost-efficiency.
2. Legal Checks (D2 Licence)
In Turkey, it is a strict legal requirement for operators to hold a 'D2 Authorisation Certificate' from the Ministry of Transport for tourism passenger transport. Hiring unlicensed (pirate) vehicles can lead to your journey being halted by authorities. All our vehicles are fully D2 certified.
3. Pricing and Contracts
Prices are calculated based on total mileage (km), duration of hire (days), and peak holiday seasons. Ensure your contract specifies whether fuel, driver expenses, and motorway tolls are included. We provide transparent, all-inclusive quotes.
4. Booking and Payment
To avoid availability issues, especially during the peak summer holiday season (May-September) and public holidays, we highly recommend booking at least 2-3 weeks in advance. Early booking secures your vehicle and locks in the best rates.
