Autos Bahía Marbella

Moreover, they can offer many extra services such as champagne on board, flowers and balloons, you can't imagine it.

Traditional Taxis
Taxis are one of the most popular and convenient ways to get around Marbella. They can be found at taxi stands located throughout the city, or you can hail one on the street. Traditional taxis in Marbella are metered, meaning the fare is based on the distance traveled. They are also equipped with GPS and can take you to any location in the city.
However, one of the downsides of traditional taxis is the cost. They can be quite expensive, especially during peak tourist season. Additionally, it can be difficult to find a taxi during peak hours, and you may have to wait in line for one. This is especially true during the high seasons, during summer and Christmas, when the demand is high and wait times can be long.
When you are in the centre or in Puerto Banús you will find a taxi very easy, but if you are at your hotel, apartment or Villa it can be very difficult to get a taxi. Sometimes they let you know that it is too far, we don’t pick you up over there. So be aware if you leave your rental and you need to pick it up the next day. Then we advice to try some alternative taxis.
Alternatives to Traditional Taxis
Ride-hailing services such as Uber, Bolt, and Cabify have become increasingly popular alternatives to traditional taxis in Marbella. These services allow you to book a ride through a mobile app and track the location of your driver in real-time.
Bolt
Bolt is another ride-hailing service that is available in Marbella. It is similar to Uber, with the same functionality and features, but it is generally considered to be a more affordable option.
Uber
Uber is one of the most popular ride-hailing services in Marbella. It allows you to book a ride with a simple tap on your phone, and you can track the location of your driver in real-time. Uber is generally less expensive than traditional taxis, and you can choose from a variety of vehicle options. Additionally, Uber can be a more reliable option during peak hours, as they have a larger pool of drivers.
Cabify
Cabify is a Spanish ride-hailing service that is available in Marbella. It offers a variety of vehicle options, from economy cars to luxury cars. The app is available in Spanish and English, and it allows you to book a ride in advance and track the location of your driver in real-time.
Conclusion
Marbella offers a variety of transportation options for tourists, including traditional taxis and ride-hailing services like Uber, Bolt, and Cabify. Each option has its own pros and cons, so it's important to consider your budget, time constraints, and travel preferences when choosing the best way to get around the city. However, traditional taxis can be busy and wait times can be long, especially during high seasons, ride-hailing services can be a great alternative.

What to do in Puerto Banús?
We love Puert Banús, even though Puerto Banús sometimes has a wrong name. We think this is partly due to the many Lamborghinis, huge yachts, Rolex and champagne bottles that are flying around your ears around Puerto Banús.

Wat te doen in Puerto Banús?
Wij houden van Puerto Banús, ook al heeft Puerto Banús soms een verkeerde naam. Wij denken dat dit deels komt door de vele Lamborghini's, enorme jachten, Rolexen en champagneflessen die u in Puerto Banús om de oren vliegen.
