Hello,

I'm planning a short trip to Albox hopefully next month. Is there a bus or train from Almeria airport to Albox which does not take hours to get there?? We do not drive abroad, my husband has some health issues where long bus/train journey's are not good. Is there a shuttle bus or similar? I understand a taxi would cost about £200 ???!!!.....so don't want to do that...Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi, try looking at this website, they run a regular shuttle bus from Almeria Airport.

Hi, many thanks for that. I've only just joined this forum & so glad I did as I found that another post had mentioned this too. When I did a Google search .....I read a bus takes 8 hours!!!!!! LOL. x

Hi,

I am not sure if the service with Exclusive runs all  the.way to Albox but the www should tell.you. There used to be a service but was underused so became non-viable. If you e mail Exclusive they can /'may be able to,  offer a link to your destination. They do this for San Juan, etc.

Wife used recently and so convenient and way cheaper than a return in the L 200.

Best of luck & have a safe & pleasant trip & stay.

I think they drop off at the Overa Hotel at the motorway junction. Albox is a 10 minute taxi ride from there and I believe the shuttle bus company can organise the taxi for you.

Good luck and enjoy your visit

Hi There, just to say the price you were quoted from Almeria airport to Albox seems a lot, my sister and her husband got a taxi from airport (Murcia international) just 3 weeks ago to Arboleas, which is a greater distance and they paid 310 euro, there and back,  It might be worthwhile to try other taxi companies.

Good luck enjoy your trip
