Since taxi prices in Europe cannot be called democratic, the question of alternative travel options is always very pressing. Before the trip, I collected information on public transport from Malaga airport to the city center and back into a single block; I think that it will be useful not only to me.

There are three options:
- taxi (the most expensive, in terms of time - depends on the time of day depending on your luck);
- buses (the cheapest and slowest);
- electric train (the best in my opinion both in price and speed).


Option 1. Taxi
Everything is clear about the taxi, I followed the signs, stood in line, got in and drove off. The taxis are honest, the meters are navigators, they give change.
The prices are as follows:
Tariff No. 1.(working days from 06:00 to 22:00): per kilometer €0.84, waiting (per hour) €18.47; minimum cost from the airport is €15.21. I must say that if you estimate the cost per kilometer and the distance to the center of Malaga, this is approximately what you will get, about 15-16 euros, just the minimum cost.

Tariff No. 2.(working days from 22:00 to 06:00, Saturdays and holidays): per kilometer €1.03; waiting (per hour) €23.09; minimum cost from the airport is €19.01. Considering that we arrived at 22:30, we were supposed to pay 20 euros. It doesn’t seem like much, but why pay more?

Moreover, there is still additions to tariffs:
Travel to/from the airport €5.50;
Travel at night (0:00 to 6:00): €2;
To/from Levante port: €1;
Luggage over 60 cm (which is the same as almost any suitcase): €0.45.
During the August holidays and Easter week - everything is at tariff No. 2. So, taking into account suitcases (2 pieces) and airport transport, a taxi would cost us at least €25.41. So I started looking at other options.

Option 2. Buses.
Main website with buses: http://www.emtmalaga.es

The main bus for us: Airport Express, No. 75

His schedule:

Route 75 bus:

For understanding: Festivos - holidays, Sabados - Saturdays, Laborables - weekdays, Salidas - stops. Centro and Aeropuerto are clear, I think, without translation. As you can see, the last bus leaves the airport at 24:00.

At convenient stops.
Near the Maria Zambrano train station there are two stops on the way from the airport: the first is Avenida de Expladana de la Estacion and the next is the bus station near the station (Estacion de Aurobuses). If you need to go to the station, you need to get off at the first one (it will be right in front of the station). Then the bus turns left and drops off at Estacion de Aurobuses (behind the station), after which it returns to the main road towards the center. You can go back to the airport from Estacion de Aurobuses (there is also a stop in this direction), in addition, there is a stop at Hero de Sostoe - this is the street immediately south of the railway station.

If you are going to the very center, then the Paseo del Parque (Plaza Marina) stop is at the beginning of a long promenade park (two parallel lines of greenery in the city center, it is impossible not to recognize on the map), and Paseo del Parque (Plaza General Torrijos) - at the very far end. From a tourist point of view, the center is Plaza Marina, it is also full of hotels, you can easily walk there even with a suitcase (on wheels).

Price pleases: Billete Ordinario Aeropuerto Express - only €2.00. Therefore, if you live somewhere near the station or in the center along the bus route, then it’s generally good.

Second bus: L 19.

When he goes to the airport, he goes through exactly the same stop Hero de Sostoe (Estacion) as the 75th, and when he goes from the airport, he goes along the second street to the south from the station (see map) - Calle de Ayala. If you are coming from the airport, then for the railway station you need to get off at either Ayala (Los Arcos) or Engeniero Garnica.

Price: only €1.20, but it's a city bus, more stops, more people. If you have a lot of luggage, it will be inconvenient.

Option 3. Electric train.

The schedule for each specific day can be found here: http://www.renfe.com/EN/viajeros/cercanias/malaga/index.html Schedules vary slightly from day to day (or by season), so look specifically at your dates, especially if you are interested in the first or last trains. The station is located directly opposite the arrivals hall, so when you get out, you will immediately see it. Walk 3 minutes maximum.

Tickets are sold in vending machines at the entrance, the system is like in the subway. We bought a ticket, went through the turnstile with it, nothing complicated. There are several stops along the way: Gualdalhorce, Victoria Kent, Maria Zambrano - station, and the center - Malaga-Centro Alameda is halfway between the station and Plaza Marina). Drive to the center 15 minutes.

Price: from the airport €1.35, to the airport €1.45.

Line diagram:

In short: taxi minimum 20-25 euros (depending on the day of the week, time of day, etc., plus an additional fee for luggage); bus - 2 euros express, 1.20 euros - regular city; 1.35-1.45 euros - train.

I posted a file for Google Earth with points in Malaga, there are stops there, you can download: malaga.kmz. I highly recommend it, the stop in the center (on Alameda) is not so easy to find, at first I thought it was closer to Plaza Marina.

If Seville is the administrative capital of the autonomous community, then Malaga is its resort center, uniting dozens of holiday destinations on the 150-kilometer Mediterranean coast of the Costa del Sol or “Sunny Coast”.
