Hello all, we have just bought our holiday home in torrevieja and are flying over next week, are the taxi’s all reliable? Should I book one or just get one from the airport when we land?
Congratulations.

or search for airport transfers or taxis in the search bar and read through some threads. There are always taxis at the airport but they are quite expensive

You must be very excited!
There’s a very good airport bus which leaves on the hour and is very cheap. If you have bought on the sea front, the bus station is within walking distance. If you have bought on the outskirts of Torrevieja then a taxi might be a better option. Make sure you know your postcode. Some of the Alicante taxi drivers may not actually know how to get to your address so postcode vital for satnav let’s hope the weather has improved. Enjoy. .

There are several great web sites for Airport transfers online which are much cheaper than the Airport taxis - I use Cheap taxis, Torrevieja.for an excellent door 2 door service....or Benniconnect will drop you off at an allocated place & pick u up again for return

I was told just outside the airport there is a bus, which for 11.00 euros gets you to Torrevieja
Much cheaper than a taxi costs.
Hope this helps

The buses are a cheaper option but only if you're prepared to be jostled by Spaniards to try to get aboard!!!....they shout Touristo at you and push in front - as if it's their right to get on first-also while you try to get your case into the storage of the bus tge seats fill up-then when you manage to get in to pay the Driver says sorry -Full....& you need to retrieve your case again
It starts off as a queue at the stop but when the bus arrives they demand to get on first....I've seen mothers with babies being pushed aside

Sounds a scary method then. Unless your use to it.
Cheers
