MIJAS BURRO TAXI
  • Tip Rating:
  • A fun, but stinky way to get around Mijas is the MIJAS BURRO TAXI. I asked what the cost was and it was 10 Euros on a burro and 15 Euros for the burro & cart, for about a 20 minute tour through town. The burros were so cute, but like I said "STINKY". I'd rather walk.
    Horario invierno de 10 a 5:30

    Car Hire
  • Tip Rating:
  • There is so much to see in Andalucia, that we found having a car was a big plus. While we did take the train to Sevilla and Cordoba, the car got us to the Malaga train station, Granada, Marbella, and back and forth to Mijas from our rented villa. We booked a car through Auto Flores (Leamington Cars) in Malaga. It was very simple, the car rental was very reasonable, and there were absolutely no hassles.

    We gave our credit card in advance and reserved a car - we got exactly what we requested. Instructions are posted on their website and in their email confirmation. Be sure to print these out before you leave. You pick up the keys and instructions for returning the car at a window (some tourist office window) (not a car rental window) near the exit to the parking lot. There was no line at window, and we received our keys immediately, along with confirmation that my credit card had been charged. The envelope tells you exactly where the car is located.

    I definitely recommend this company for car rentals if you are flying into Malaga. Pay a little extra for a GPS system if you are planning on driving on the back roads through the mountains and hills. This was a huge help for us, and we never got lost.

    Car Hire versus Public Transport improvement
  • Tip Rating:
  • TOO MANY PRIVATE VEHICLES @ the Costa del Sol

    The new system is aimed at making public transportation more convenient and less expensive, in an effort to increase use. Currently 80 per cent of travelling in the Málaga metropolitan area is done in private vehicles and 20 per cent on public transport, according to the consortium, which was created in September 2003 to co-ordinate and integrate public transportation systems in the area. It is starting with the buses and will later address Cercanías trains and the city's future metro system, and says its objective is to change the private-to-public transportation ratio to 60-40.

    To be honest, I rented a car - from MALAGA airport ---- much better and was happy with the brand new wheels I got :)

    CAR HIRE

    The Donkey Taxis of Mijas
    It seems that most people choose to stroll around Mijas on 2 legs, but if you want a taxi, these ones have 4 legs.

    Even if you don't have a specific place you want to go, the "driver" will take you for a little half-hour ride along the main streets, in a rickshaw pulled by one of these donkeys.

    BUS TO MIJAS
    As is now a tradition with us, we again made the trip to the beautiful village of Mijas. It's so easy to get there by bus from Torremolinos. It only cost 1.25 Euros each way and takes about an hour to get there. Buses usually go there every hour and leave from the bus terminal in downtown Toremolinos.
