Default Taxi to Alhaurin

Can anyone give me an idea of how much a taxi is likely to cost from Malaga airport to Alhaurin el Grande.

Just ask him for the book of prices then. The prices are very transparent in this part of Spain.

55 euros sounds about right to me, it costs me 25-30 euros from the airport to Benalmádena Pueblo - and AEG is at least twice as far.

People sometimes forget the distances involved here.

Yes, while I agree with you, I do know the quickest way to the airport from my house, my husband commutes, I do the trip twice a week. Our driver went the "very" long way round and very slowly!

In fact if the OP wants a lift and it coinsides with one of my airport runs, I'm happy to do it as a favour

The book of prices will give the price between the airport and where your house is. It will be the same price no matter what route he took.

Maybe he wanted to save petrol? Who knows, but he wouldnt have made any more money from it.

I've never been in a taxi with a meter here! They always had the book of prices. Oh well, shows that you can never be sure about anything

We must use different taxis then LOL. The ones I usually use when I go back to the UK are the white ones that park around the airport. Altho next time I go back I've arranged to put my car in one of those parking places opposite the airport - cheaper than the taxis!
