Is Renting a Car in Türkiye from an Airport or a Local Location Cheaper?

Renting a car from a local location in Türkiye is generally cheaper than renting from the airport, with prices averaging about 26% less. For example, if renting a car at an airport costs $50 per day, the same car might be available from a local rental office for around $37 per day. This price difference is because airport rental locations often charge additional fees to cover their higher operating costs and convenience for travellers. Therefore, to save money on your car rental in Türkiye, it's advisable to pick up your vehicle from a local rental office rather than at the airport.
