Malaga Airport to Torremolinos

My daughter (17) and I are arriving at the airport at 23.20 on the 19th and I am trying to make my mind up whether to pre-book a taxi or shuttle bus to the hotel or get a taxi from the airport when we arrive as I have been reading several 'blogs' about whether this is safe or not and what price to expect to pay-I was coming to the conclusion this would be about 15-20 Euros-is this right? Given the time of night do you think a taxi is still the best, and maybe, cheapest option? Due to all the good info on your site, I was considering using public transport to go back to the airport as we need to be there for 9.00am and I am all for the experience of thisyour advice would be appreciatedthanks Alyson C

HI Torremolinos is really really close to the airport. 10 to 15 minutes. The taxis have a minimum charge of about 12€uros so it wont cost much although they will add a couple of euros for night charge. Taxis are outside and as long as you queue up and get in the white proper taxis you should be fine. http://www.renfe.es/ is the website for the trains. You need to go to cercanias - malaga which is local lines for malaga airport. You shouldnt pay more that 15 or 20 euros so if you find a shuttle or private transfers from Malaga the same or cheaper then book them. Its entitirly up to you.
