How to get there

 

Marbella Malaga driving

 

To go out partying in Malaga from Marbella, your best choice would be by taxi cab, even though it will cost you close to 60 euros. Taxis are the most advisable choice for two reasons: first, you’ll be able to drink without having to worrying about driving later, and second, you won’t have to worry about where to park.

Malaga’s taxi services operate quite well and, if you intend to go out and about downtown, you’ll have no trouble finding this service available 24-hours a day, as you’ll find a taxi station on the corner of Larios street and Alameda Principal. Furthermore, if you don’t feel like walking, you can call any of the following taxi services and they’ll send a cab to wherever you are.
