Yes! Book a private, door-to-door airport transfer with a local English-speaking driver. Enjoy fixed and transparent pricing, no hidden fees, and the option to pay in advance without the hassle of exchanging cash at a foreign airport.
You will receive the vehicle that best fits the number of travelers in your group, ranging from a sedan to a van for groups of up to 7. Depending where you travel, you can book anything from a sedan comparable to a Toyota Corolla to a Mercedes V-Class to a Classic Cuban Car. While the exact model may vary, we always ensure that the vehicle provided meets your needs in terms of safety, reliability, and comfort. You may be upgraded to a larger vehicle class free of charge depending on availability. Since our largest vehicle seats 7, for groups larger a combination of vehicles will be used. We will send you the exact vehicle details a few days before your trip.
Everywhere except the USA, drivers will supply appropriate child seats (just let us know during booking). In the USA, certain states require you to supply your own child seats.
Puerto Banus is approximately 60 kilometers (37 miles) west of Malaga Airport, and the drive typically takes around 45 to 55 minutes depending on traffic. The AP-7 motorway connects the two directly. Private transfers are a popular and convenient option, especially if you are arriving with luggage and want a stress-free start to your Costa del Sol trip.
Puerto Banus is generally considered safe. It attracts a large international crowd, and during the summer the area has increased police presence. As with any busy resort, keep an eye on your belongings in crowded areas, particularly along the marina and at beach clubs. The main promenade and beach areas are well-patrolled and feel comfortable to explore day and night.
Strolling the marina to admire the superyachts and people-watch is a classic Puerto Banus pastime. The beaches on either side of the port are excellent for sunbathing. The area is also a shopper's paradise, with designer boutiques and a large department store. Nearby Marbella's Old Town, the Golden Mile, and several championship golf courses are popular add-ons.
Spain uses the euro (EUR). Credit and debit cards are accepted almost everywhere in Puerto Banus, from high-end restaurants to beach clubs. ATMs are readily available in the marina area and along the main promenade. It is handy to carry a small amount of cash for tips, market purchases, and smaller street-side cafes.
Puerto Banus has a reputation for glamour, and while there is no strict citywide dress code, smarter casual attire is appreciated at upscale bars, restaurants, and beach clubs. Many venues enforce a dress code at night, so smart shoes and well-presented clothing are recommended for evenings out. During the day, beach and resort wear is perfectly acceptable along the shore.
Spanish (Castilian) is the official language of Spain. In Puerto Banus, English is very widely spoken given the area's international clientele, and you will also hear French, Arabic, Russian, and many other languages around the marina. You are unlikely to face a language barrier in shops, restaurants, or hotels here.
The Costa del Sol is a fantastic destination for seafood lovers. Try fresh grilled fish (pescado a la plancha), fried anchovies (boquerones fritos), and the iconic cold tomato soup known as gazpacho. Tapas are a must, and the Marbella area has several Michelin-starred restaurants alongside more casual spots serving excellent Andalusian cuisine.
Puerto Banus is enjoyable year-round thanks to its mild Mediterranean climate. Summer brings hot, sunny days ideal for beach and boat life, though the marina gets very busy with long lines and full parking lots. Late spring (May to June) and early fall (September to October) offer warm weather, a lively atmosphere, and smaller crowds, making them popular among repeat visitors.
2+ million travelers like you. Moments they'll never forget.
So, so happy I stumbled upon this website to book two private transports while visiting Lima, Peru. They were both one-way trips approximately 3 hours in length. Great communication as soon as everything was booked via email and I then downloaded their app. I had a few issues with the app and the customer service was awesome trying to assist me in getting it corrected. Honestly impressive customer service which gave you a positive feeling that you made the right choice. Both drivers were right on time - No issues whatsoever! Can't say enough about the service and ease of everything when travelling so far away. Great job to the daytrip team! Would strongly recommend.
