Your transfer from Marbella back to Malaga Airport

The return journey is half the trip, and it is the half that goes wrong most often. We collect you from your hotel, villa or apartment in Marbella and take you straight to the terminal, working backwards from your departure time so you are not rushing and not sitting in the airport for four hours either. Early flights are not a problem: we run transfers from Marbella to Malaga Airport at any hour. Book the outbound and the return together and we will hold both in the same reservation, with the same contact for any change to your plans.

Marbella airport transfers to every area

Marbella is thirty kilometres of coastline, and the word Marbella on a booking form can mean very different drives. We cover all of it.

Marbella centre and the old town

Around 55 km from the airport, 40 to 50 minutes.

Puerto Banús

Around 60 km, 45 to 55 minutes. The marina, the surrounding hotels and the beach clubs.

Nueva Andalucía

Around 60 km, 45 to 55 minutes. Golf Valley and the residential areas behind the marina.

San Pedro de Alcántara

Around 65 km, 50 to 60 minutes.

The Golden Mile and Sierra Blanca

Between the centre and Puerto Banús, with the hotels and villas along the way.

Travelling somewhere else on the coast? We also run transfers to Estepona, Benalmádena and Sotogrande.

How to get from Malaga Airport to Marbella

There are three realistic ways of making this journey, and a private transfer is not always the cheapest one. It is worth knowing the difference before you book.

The public bus

A coach service runs from the airport to Marbella bus station for a few euros. It is the cheapest option by a distance. It also runs to a timetable, stops on the way, leaves you at the station rather than at your door, and becomes awkward with large luggage, golf bags or a group. If you are travelling light, alone and not in a hurry, it does the job.

A taxi

Available on arrival, metered, and fine for one to four passengers. You queue at the rank, the fare depends on traffic and time of day, and a group needs several cars that arrive separately.

A private transfer

Booked in advance for a fixed price, with a vehicle sized for your party, straight to your address. It makes most sense when you are travelling as a group, landing late, carrying equipment or simply want the journey settled before you fly.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long is the transfer from Malaga Airport to Marbella?+
Between 40 and 50 minutes to the centre of Marbella in normal traffic. Puerto Banús and San Pedro add another five to ten minutes. Summer weekends and rush hour can stretch it, and we plan your pick-up with that in mind.
How far is Marbella from Malaga Airport?+
Around 55 km by road, mostly on the AP-7 and A-7 along the coast.
Where does the bus from Malaga Airport arrive in Marbella?+
The public coach arrives at Marbella bus station, north of the centre. From there you still need a taxi to most hotels and villas. A private transfer takes you to the address itself.
Can you transfer large groups in one go?+
Yes. Our minibuses carry up to 21 passengers and our coaches up to 60, so a group travels together in a single vehicle instead of splitting across several cars.
Can you collect us from Marbella and take us back to the airport?+
Yes. We run the route in both directions and you can book the outbound and the return in the same reservation.
Do you cover Puerto Banús, San Pedro and Nueva Andalucía?+
Yes, along with the Golden Mile and the rest of the municipality.

In October 2024 you looked after our group of 12 friends, 6 nationalities, for airport pickup and three days of guided excursions in Andalucia. The transport was excellent as were the drivers and guides. Special thanks for organising everything go to Maria and Begoña.

From the first communication all the way through to the last drop off at the airport, the team was fantastic! We'll be using them again for our private charters and airport transfers, and can highly recommend them for anyone looking for reliable, friendly and professional services on the Costa del Sol.
