Bus from Antalya to Fethiye

[trainer]

Its probably been asked before but how long does the bus take and what's the journey like this time of year IE snow
Thanks 

[KKOB]

Depends on which company you're travelling with and whether they have a rest stop and how long for. You should allow at least 3 and a half hours. Unless there's been an extremely heavy snowfall you shouldn't have any delays along the route.

Does anyone know how i could find a timetable of buses going from Antalya otogar to Fethiye or is it pretty much 24 hours?
I have done Fethiye to Antalya before but not the other way round and am thinking ogf booking a flight for next month, this is the better option for me then going via Istanbul, but I dont want to find myself waiting at a bus station maybe half the night!
Thanks for any help

Easyjet flights start at the end of March if you can wait till then.

You can get the timetable for the Bati Antalya buses from their website at http://batiantalyatur.com.tr/ They're every couple of hours thoughout the day.

Pamukkale and Metro also run between Fethiye and Antalya and you can get times from their respective websites.

There's a gap between about 1am and 6am when there are no departures. The last time I did the trip I arrived at the Otogar at around 2.30am, had a meal in one of the Lokantas and then got my head down on a bench for a couple of hours before catching the first bus out to Fethiye.

Is it better to buy a ticket the day before or just before traveling

[KKOB]

If you're going to travel on an official Turkish holiday day, it's best to book a few days in advance. Most other times you can just turn-up and buy a ticket.
