Understand the strict Spanish transport laws and why booking a fully licensed VTC operator is crucial.
In southern Spain, the scourge of 'pirate' (unlicensed) taxis often targets tourists near the airport or border areas.
A legitimate private transport operator possesses a VTC (Vehículo de Transporte con Conductor) license. These vehicles are strictly inspected for mechanical safety, possess massive passenger liability insurance, and the drivers undergo criminal background checks by the Policia Nacional.
Never step into an unmarked car offering you a 'deal'. Look for the blue regional VTC stickers. We operate 100% legally to ensure your absolute protection.
