Minibus is another option you can take if you don’t have too much luggage. You should arrive at Diyarbakır Kapı, which is the entrance gate of Old Mardin that is also known as Yenişehir part of Mardin, by taking a minibus on Kızıltepe-Mardin highway after walking about 100 meters from the airport. There you can get on a minibus to the city center. Moreover, the cost you need to pay will be less.
