Makam Otel Transfer
Makam Otel transfer: door-to-door private cars from this Şehitkerim city hotel in old Tarsus to the airport, Adana, Mersin and the town's historic sights.
Transfer to Makam Otel
Makam Otel is a city hotel in the Şehitkerim neighbourhood of Tarsus, close to the mosques and bazaar streets of the old town. Most people who ask us about a Makam Otel transfer want the same thing: to get from the airport, the bus station or another city straight to the hotel entrance without hauling luggage onto a bus. Here is where the hotel sits, where you can go from it, and how to get to Makam Otel without fuss.
A Bed in the Old Town
Booking sites place the hotel just steps from the Tarsus Grand Mosque and the Old Mosque, with the Kırkkaşık Bedesten and St. Paul's Church within walking distance. That changes how you use the town. You walk to breakfast, to the bazaar, to the churches and mosques. A car is only needed when you leave the centre.
The streets in the historic core are narrow. Late afternoons and Sundays can be slow going. You do not need to explain the way: the hotel name in your booking is enough, and the car pulls up at the door or at the nearest point the street allows.
Who Stays Here
This is not a resort. It is a practical base for a night or two, and its guests usually arrive with a specific purpose.
- Families visiting relatives in Tarsus for a short stay
- Visitors who want to see the old town on foot
- Business travellers with meetings at the Tarsus Organised Industrial Zone or nearby factories
- Guests in town for a wedding, an engagement or a funeral, often on a tight schedule
They share three needs: arriving on time, not dragging bags through transfers, and knowing the return time in advance. A private transfer covers all three.
Adana, Mersin and the Waterfall
Tarsus sits between two large cities. Adana lies to the east and Mersin to the west, and we drive door to door to both. Within Tarsus, the waterfall, Cleopatra's Gate and the excavated Roman road are short hops, and many visitors simply walk. For a longer day, think of the Mersin seafront, the castle town of Kızkalesi, or hospitals and offices in Adana.
If your day has several stops, book each leg as its own point-to-point transfer and add the return with the "Add return" option in the booking form. Arriving by air? Our page on the transfer from Çukurova Airport to Makam Otel walks through the arrivals meeting, the drive into the old town and the right car for your party.
Short Arrival, Planned Departure
The airport is close to Tarsus, so arrival day rarely involves a long drive. The thing to watch is check-in. On a morning flight, ask the hotel in advance whether a room will be ready. On departure day, work the pickup time back from your flight and allow for slow traffic in the old town.
Choose the car by passengers and luggage. A solo traveller or a couple is fine in a Business Sedan or Comfort Class. A family with children visiting relatives will be comfortable in a VIP Vito. A wedding party travelling together fits in the eight-seat Mercedes Vito or the fifteen-seat Mercedes Sprinter. Prices are per vehicle, not per person. Select Makam Otel in the booking form, enter your date and compare the vehicle classes.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where exactly is Makam Otel?
The hotel is in the Şehitkerim neighbourhood, inside the historic centre of Tarsus in Mersin province. Booking sites list it very close to the Tarsus Grand Mosque and the Old Mosque, and within walking distance of the Kırkkaşık Bedesten and St. Paul's Church. Please confirm the exact address with the hotel before you travel.
Can you take us from the hotel to a hospital in Adana and back?
Yes. Book a point-to-point transfer from the hotel to the hospital in Adana and add the journey back with the "Add return" option, so both legs sit in one reservation. Pick a pickup time that leaves room before your appointment. The booking form shows the price for each vehicle class, charged per vehicle.
Can a large wedding party travel in one vehicle?
Pick the vehicle to match the group. The Mercedes Vito seats up to eight and the Mercedes Sprinter up to fifteen, so most families travel together. For a group of seven wanting more comfort, there is the Ultra VIP Sprinter. With plenty of luggage, moving up a class keeps the cabin from getting cramped.
Do you drive from the Tarsus bus station to the hotel?
Yes, we also run door-to-door transfers between points within Tarsus. In the booking form, choose the bus station or your current location as pickup and Makam Otel as drop-off. If your coach time changes, send a change request through the My Reservation page and we will update the booking.
