I have used Jose from the Urb La Marina to a nearby Tapas Bar. He was brilliant, arrived on time and came back to pick us up on time. I got his card and have seen that there are two other mobile numbers for taxis (mentioned on this forum) which seem to operate from Avenida Londres. Does this mean that there are only 3 legal taxis serving the urb? I am coming over in October with a party of 6 so need to know if I need to co-opt two thirds of the taxis available!! Are there any altenatives? Are there larger taxis available? I'm not interested in the cheap option of illegal taxis, should such a thing exist. It's not worth it for the sake of a few euros.

Thanks,

Brian

Good morning Brian.

Very sensible to avoid illegal taxis, as the police are doing random checks looking for them, and the passengers get fined, along with the driver, and the vehicle is confiscated. Meanwhile, of course, you are not insured in an illegal car.

I agree that José is excellent, I always use him. There is one other who is good, but sadly there is one who sometimes turns up late, or not at all, and has overcharged me in the past. He has a habit of giving customers the impression that he controls all the taxis, which is not the case. If you would like to send me a pm, I will give you his details, so that (if you take my advice) you can avoid him!

I believe that José has more than one car.

Geoff.
