Diyarbakır Airport (DIY) → Konuk Evi Hotel, Suriçi district
💡 Negotiate the price before you get in – official taxis from the rank usually charge a flat rate, but drivers may try to add extra for luggage or late hours. Hail one from the arrivals hall exit.
Diyarbakır Airport (DIY) → Şehirlerarası Otogar (city bus terminal)
💡 The shuttle drops you at the otogar, not near Suriçi. From there, take a short taxi (20 TL) to Konuk Evi. This works best if you're not carrying heavy bags – the walk from the otogar to the hotel is through narrow streets.
Diyarbakır Airport (DIY) → Dağkapı Square (nearest stop to Konuk Evi)
💡 Catch bus line 121 from the airport stop. It runs along the main boulevard – get off at Dağkapı, then walk five minutes east into Suriçi. Pay by contactless card or cash on board; exact change only. Buses get crowded during rush hours.
Diyarbakır Airport (DIY) → Dağkapı Tram Stop
💡 The tram is the most efficient public option. From the airport, follow signs to the tram station (it's a short walk from the terminal). Alight at Dağkapı, then cut through the Suriçi bazaar – Konuk Evi is a three-minute walk from the tram stop. Buy a transit card at the station.
