Ground Transportation

Last updated: Jul 24, 2025
Taxis

Taxis are readily available 24/7 at the taxi stand located directly outside the domestic terminal arrivals exit. The ride to Van city center is short, typically taking 15-20 minutes depending on traffic. Fares are calculated using a taximeter.

Rental Cars

Several car rental agencies have desks inside the domestic arrivals terminal. Options include both international brands like Avis, Sixt, and Enterprise, as well as local Turkish companies. It is advisable to book a car in advance, especially during peak tourist seasons, to secure a vehicle and potentially better rates.

Public Transportation

The main public transport option is the municipal bus (Belediye Otobüsü) line 351. This bus route connects the airport with key points in the city center and the Yüzüncü Yıl University campus. Bus schedules are generally aligned with flight arrival and departure times. Shared vans, known as 'dolmuş' or 'minibüs', also operate on main roads near the airport, providing another inexpensive way to get to the city.
