Public transport
The guide was updated:The simplest, cheapest and most popular way to go around is to take a so-called dolmus. You can also take a minibus or a large taxi. They depart when they are full and stop wherever you want. The dolmus often depart outside supermarkets and from central Marmaris. From the Otogar bus station, buses set off for other destinations in Turkey. It is a good idea to book a seat in advance. Many bus companies run services along the same routes. You can also take a taxi boat if you want to go to one of the nearby villages, like Icmeler.
