Should I hire a car or is it easy enough to get a direct bus from airport. Alternatively how much would a cab be?
Best Answer
There is no train or direct bus from the airport to Roquetas, but there is a choice of transfer.
Roquetas is between 14-18 miles away and an airport taxi, from outside arrivals, will get you there in less than 30 mins. for a price of 38euros (£25.70).
Shuttledirect will charge you 43.54euros (£29.60) for two persons, and must be booked on-line.
Transferstore can also be booked on-line, at a cost of £46.03 for 2 persons in a taxi. Alternatively, a standard transfer with them will cost £21.58 for 2 persons. With this, the cheapest option, you will not know until you arrive at the airport whether you are travelling in a taxi, mini-bus or coach.
All the airport information, including booking with transferstore, can be found on website.
