All taxis in Turkey are equipped with taximeters but after midnight (for example you stayed late in Oludeniz and missed last dolmus, in this case Oludeniz taxi is your chance to come back to Hisaronu, Ovacik and Fethiye) we recommend to ask driver the cost before the trip as the cost may be higher in comparison to day time.
