About Car Rental at Diyarbakir Airport
Diyarbakir Airport (DIY) is the main airport of the upper Tigris region, open to passengers since 1952. It sits southwest of the city, about 10 km from the centre according to the airport authority, and shares its site with a military air base. The large terminal handles domestic and international flights.
People fly into Diyarbakir to visit family, for work, for the city's university and hospitals, and as tourists: the black basalt walls and the Hevsel Gardens below them form a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and Mardin, Hasankeyf and the Roman fortress of Zerzevan are within a day's drive. Diyarbakir Airport car rental is the easiest way to link these places, since many of them have limited public transport for a visitor on a tight schedule.
With Otorento you compare offers from independent rental suppliers at Diyarbakir Airport in one search, including each supplier's deposit, mileage and fuel conditions. Prices depend on dates, car group and supplier, and holiday periods, when many families visit, tend to be busy. Free cancellation and 24/7 support are included with every supplier.
For city stays and trips to Mardin or Zerzevan, a compact or mid-size car is usually enough. If you are travelling with family, carrying a lot of luggage or planning long days on the road, a larger saloon or minivan is more comfortable in the heat. Diyarbakir Airport car rental is available with manual and automatic gearboxes, and the search results show which suppliers offer each.
Location and getting around
The old walled city (Sur) is a short drive northeast of the airport. Main highways lead southeast to Mardin, east to Batman and Hasankeyf, and west to Sanliurfa. There is no motorway around Diyarbakir; the nearest tolled motorway, paid through the HGS tag that rental cars normally carry, starts at Sanliurfa and runs west to Gaziantep.
Destination | Road distance (approx.) | Drive time (traffic permitting) |
|---|---|---|
Old city walls (Dagkapi) | 6 km | 10-20 min |
Hevsel Gardens | 8 km | 15-25 min |
Diyarbakir intercity bus terminal | 11 km | 15-25 min |
Zerzevan Castle | 49 km | 45-55 min |
Mardin old town | 96 km | about 1.5 hours |
Batman | 111 km | about 1.5-2 hours |
Hasankeyf | 130 km | about 1.75-2 hours |
Municipal buses and taxis link the airport with the city, which works well for a stay inside the walls. For anything beyond Diyarbakir itself, a car gives you far more flexibility than intercity buses.
Picking up your car
The airport authority lists more than ten rental companies serving the airport, so handover arrangements vary: a desk or meeting point in the arrivals area, a representative waiting with a name board, or an office close to the airport. Your booking confirmation shows the exact meeting point and the supplier's contact number.
Driving licence: under Turkish traffic rules, a licence issued abroad can be used for up to six months after you enter Turkey. Have your passport with you and check your supplier's requirements, especially for licences not written in Latin script.
Deposit and card: most suppliers block a deposit on a credit card in the main driver's name. The conditions are shown with each offer before you book.
Flight number: include it so the supplier can follow any delay.
One-way trips: if you plan to fly home from Mardin, Batman or Sanliurfa, compare one-way options by changing the return location in the search form.
Diyarbakir Airport car hire handovers are quicker with documents ready. Check the car with the supplier's representative, note existing damage on the form and photograph the fuel level and mileage before you drive off.
Places to visit by car
Diyarbakir walls and Hevsel Gardens: the city's basalt fortifications and the riverside gardens between the walls and the Tigris, inscribed together as a UNESCO World Heritage Site; approx. 6-8 km.
Old Diyarbakir: the Great Mosque (Ulu Cami), historic caravanserais and courtyard houses inside the walls; park outside and explore on foot.
Ten-Eyed Bridge (On Gozlu Kopru): an 11th-century stone bridge with ten arches spanning the Tigris just south of the old city, a favourite spot at sunset; a short drive from the walls.
Zerzevan Castle: a late Roman frontier fortress on a hill above the Mardin road, with an underground Mithras temple; approx. 49 km.
Mardin: honey-coloured stone houses stacked on a hillside overlooking the Mesopotamian plain; approx. 96 km.
Hasankeyf: the old town on the Tigris was largely flooded by a dam reservoir in 2020, and several monuments were moved to a new site nearby; approx. 130 km.
Driving and parking tips
Inside the old city, streets are narrow and often busy with pedestrians and delivery vehicles. Leave the car in a car park near one of the main gates and walk. If you are staying inside the walls, ask your hotel in advance where guests can park.
Summers in Diyarbakir are very hot. Start long drives early, carry water and choose a car with good air conditioning.
Mardin's old town is built on a steep hillside with narrow, sloping lanes; leave the car in a car park on the main road and explore on foot.
Keep your passport, licence and rental agreement in the car at all times; you may be asked for them at routine traffic checks.
Some heritage sites in the region were damaged in the February 2023 earthquakes; check opening hours and access before driving out to a specific monument.

Where do I collect my rental car at Diyarbakir Airport?
It depends on the supplier you book. The airport authority lists more than ten rental companies at Diyarbakir Airport, so handovers vary: a desk or meeting point in the arrivals area, a representative holding a name board, or an office close to the airport. Your booking confirmation gives the exact meeting point and the supplier's phone number, so keep it to hand when you land.
How far is Diyarbakir Airport from the old city walls?
Not far: the airport is about 10 km from the centre, and Dagkapi, the main northern gate of the walled city, is roughly 6 km away, which takes 10-20 minutes. The Hevsel Gardens below the walls are about 8 km. Inside the walls the streets are narrow and busy, so most visitors park near one of the gates and explore on foot.
How long is the drive from Diyarbakir Airport to Mardin?
Allow about 1.5 hours for the 96 km to Mardin's old town, heading southeast. Zerzevan Castle, a late Roman frontier fort with an underground Mithras temple, sits above the same road about 49 km from the airport (45-55 minutes), so it makes an easy stop. Mardin's old town clings to a steep hillside, so leave the car on the main road and walk the lanes.
Can I visit Hasankeyf and Batman by car from Diyarbakir Airport?
Yes, both lie east of Diyarbakir. Batman is about 111 km (1.5-2 hours) and Hasankeyf about 130 km (1.75-2 hours). Be aware that the old town of Hasankeyf was largely flooded by a dam reservoir in 2020, and several monuments were moved to a new site nearby. Some heritage sites in the region were also damaged in the February 2023 earthquakes, so check access before you set out.
Can I pick up at Diyarbakir Airport and drop the car off in Mardin, Batman or Sanliurfa?
Some suppliers allow one-way rentals to other cities and airports in the region. If you plan to fly home from Mardin, Batman or Sanliurfa, change the return location in the search form to see which suppliers offer it and any one-way fee before you pay. On a long regional loop, compare mileage limits too. Free cancellation and 24/7 support apply with every supplier.
What if my flight into Diyarbakir Airport is delayed or lands late at night?
Add your flight number to the booking so the supplier can follow the delay and adjust the handover. Whether a supplier hands over cars late at night or early in the morning varies, and the search results show who does and any out-of-hours charge. The terminal also handles international flights, so on those arrivals allow extra time for passport control and baggage reclaim.
What documents do I need to rent a car at Diyarbakir Airport with a foreign licence?
Bring your driving licence, your passport and a credit card in the main driver's name for the deposit. Under the Turkish Highway Traffic Regulation (art. 88), a licence issued abroad can be used for up to six months after you enter Turkey. Check your supplier's requirements, especially if your licence is not in Latin script, and ask whether it also wants an International Driving Permit.
Any driving tips for a summer trip from Diyarbakir Airport?
Start long drives early in the day: Diyarbakir summers are very hot, so carry water and pick a car with good air conditioning, testing it before you leave the airport. Keep your passport, licence and rental agreement in the car at all times, as you may be asked for them at routine traffic checks on the regional roads.
