Public Transport
The forms of local Transport are either by Dolmus or Taxi. Dolmus (which means 'stuffed'or 'filled up') is like a mini-bus and travels a certain route.Most major towns and cities have a Dolmus station,where you just take a seat in the Dolmus that travels to your destination.
There is a main dolmus station in Fethiye where you will find transport to most places you would wish to go.The Dolmus pass through Hisaronu going to either Fethiye or Olu Deniz,recognized by the sign on the windscreen.All you have to do is put your hand out wherever you are and one will stop for you.The Dolmus fare is determined by the Municipality according to distance and is very cheap and reasonable.
Taxis are numerous and are recognised by their yellow colour.They are metered and there are two different rates,Daytime and after 24.00hrs until 06.00hrs when it will probably be about 50% more than the daytime rate.Tipping is not necessary,however leaving the change or rounding up the fare is the norm.
