Transport:
I have 15 years experience teaching and guiding paragliding. This experience
has demonstrated that the 8-seat VW minibus is the best vehicle to use.It has
the space and comfort , but
most
surprisingly it handles both the rough mountain tracks and the normal roads
equally well. These minibuses are available for clients' personal use, in the
evenings, to visit restaurants ("tapas"), etc, at no extra cost.However,
you are welcome to make your own arrangements with car-hire from Málaga
airport, if you wish. In this case, fuel purchase is your responsibility.
