Malaga Airport to City Centre: Transfers and Taxi

Transfers from Malaga Airport to Malaga Centre

Situated in the Southern Andalucia region, Malaga offers a nice Mediterranean climate. The city is a perfect destination for the lovers of art museums, architectural sites, hiking, beaches, cuisine, and excellent shopping. You will also find lots of facilities and hotels designed for tourists.

Other than preparing the things you will bring on your trip, make sure to book a transfer. That is to ensure nothing will interrupt your vacation like delays upon arrival, expensive taxi, or lost luggage.

When you book a transfer with Kiwitaxi, rest assured that you do not think of how much is the cost of a taxi to the city centre. Before you arrive at the airport, the transfer driver with a nameplate will already be waiting for you. In other words, you can immediately go to your destination. The driver will kindly take care of your luggage and walk you to the car. On the way, you can have a nap or enjoy the views of the beautiful city.

The cost of a transfer starts at 24 Euro with one hour of waiting and free cancellation service. You can choose a vehicle out of 10 transfer classes that will best meet your needs. The journey will take about 30 minutes of travel time.

Taxi from Malaga Airport to City Centre

The price of a taxi from Malaga Airport to the city center is 20 euro. Outside the arrivals hall of Terminal 2, you can get a taxi at the taxi rank. There are plenty of taxis available but the amount of tourists willing to take one is also high. Thus, you will have to queue. Not to mention that during summer days, that is the peak season, the queues can be very long. In case you want to avoid the long lines, then you can pre-book our service. 

At the taxi rank, do not forget to ask for a taxi quote or try to look for a cheap taxi fare heading from Malaga Airport to the city centre.

If you are traveling to Malaga with children, do not hope to find a vehicle with installed child seats: they are not very popular at the air hub as they limit the number of passengers the driver can take.

Although the taxi is metered, the rate will also depend on the time and day when you take a taxi. Festival days or holidays affect the fare rate as much as nighttime does. The nighttime rate is in effect from 10 to 6 am and makes around 22 Euro.

Be aware that you may encounter some deceitful taxi drivers. If you are not careful, they will try to overcharge you.

So, if you do not want to experience long queues or an increased taxi rate, it’s better to book the Kiwitaxi service.

As an alternative, you can try to call Uber, but it is not very popular in Spain. Besides, you will have to wait until their cab arrives at the air hub to pick you up. 

Public Transport from Malaga Airport to City

There are some public transport options, including buses and trains. 

The bus station is located outside the Departures. Linea Express A will take you to the city with 10 stops along the route. It will take 15 to 25 minutes to reach your destination if the traffic is not very congested. A single ticket costs 3 euro.

The train Line C1 will take you from the air hub to the city centre. The train departs every 20 minutes. You can purchase the tickets at the ticket office in Terminal 3 which cost from 1.8 euro.

Although the train and bus are cheap options, they take much longer than our service. Besides, if you have a lot of luggage with you, the bus r train rides will not seem pleasant for you especially under the hot Spanish sun.
