There are some legally registered licensed Spanish Taxi drivers who speak English reasonably well - We use them regularly in my area.

Hopefully someone can recommend one in Finestrat.

Most taxis have meters on to show the price, although some will offer a 'special" price if booked in advance.

When using a Spanish taxi its always worth taking a note of the destination place or address to show the driver anyway just in case they don't understand the Spanglish.

Most Ayutamientos /Town halls will have taxi numbers.

I wonder how many taxi companies in the UK would be able to answer a telephone enquiry from a Spanish national speaking Spanish.
