If you will be arriving at Alicante but have no intention to stay in the capital city of the province and want to move to another destination in Spain’s Costa Blanca region as soon as possible, you can take a taxi from Alicante to other towns (Benidorm, etc.). Let’s see what Alicante taxi price for such trips is.
During our latest trip to Alicante, we were taking a train to the main railway station of the city, where we’ve found a pricelist of one company clearly displaying Alicante taxi fares for the journey from Alicante to various popular destinations in the region such as Benidorm, Torrevieja, Calpe, and others.
While not all companies might be offering the same fare for your trip, this pricelist can help you get a better idea what taxi fare for your trip can be expected.
Alicante Taxi Prices
Alicante taxi price depends not only on your chosen destination and the distance between it and Alicante city but also the time of traveling as standard taxi fare is applied only when traveling on working days Monday to Friday, from 7:00 to 21:00.
At night, on weekends and during public holidays, the taxi fare in Alicante is increased by around 17% (at least by this service provider).
