🚖 Where to Get a Taxi in Benidorm
There are taxi ranks all over Benidorm – too many to list – and you can also flag down a taxi if it’s showing a green light.
✅ Important:
-
All taxis must clearly display current tariffs and supplements, usually stuck to rear windows or behind the front seats.
-
The taximeter must always be visible to passengers.
-
You have a legal right to request a receipt – essential if you need to claim for overcharging. The receipt must include the taxi license number.
Before leaving the taxi, note down:
✔️ License number
✔️ Date and time
✔️ Route taken
Also, every driver must carry official claims forms if needed.
♿ Transport for People with Disabilities

Radio Taxi Benidorm is pet-friendly. If you’re travelling with a pet, call a few minutes in advance to inform them of the animal type and how you will transport it.
👨👩👧👦 Travelling with Children
Children can travel in the rear of a taxi without a child seat within urban areas. For travel on motorways or non-urban routes, a car seat is legally required.
How Much Do Taxis Cost in Benidorm?
Taxi meters charge based on distance, not speed. However, they also tick over during traffic jams, at traffic lights, or while waiting for passengers.
⚠️ Tip: If you book a taxi to collect you from home or your hotel, don’t keep the driver waiting, as waiting time is chargeable.
-
Night tariffs are more expensive.
-
For longer journeys between towns, fares are fixed by regional authorities and cover the round trip for the driver.
-
Trips to or from the airport, train station, or similar destinations may include a supplement, which must be clearly indicated in the taxi.
