Alicante taxi costs
Most taxi companies in Alicante use meters, which means you’ll pay a base charge plus a rate per kilometre. The rates are usually different for day and night journeys, as well as weekends and public holidays.
Most taxis accept card or contactless payment these days, but it’s always worth double-checking with your driver before you start your trip to avoid any awkward moments at the end!
Alicante taxi airport transfers
All of the taxi services listed above can take you to and from Alicante Airport. You can book this directly with them, though I’d recommend calling ahead to secure your ride.
A standard taxi from Alicante city centre to the airport typically costs around €25-30, depending on the time of day and your exact pickup location. The journey takes about 20-25 minutes in normal traffic.
If you’re heading to Benidorm or other towns along the Costa Blanca, expect to pay more – a taxi to Benidorm will cost around €60+ and take about 45 minutes.
