Taxi Transfers To and From Naples Airport

The taxi rank is located just outside the terminal at Naples International Airport, offering 24-hour transport into the city of Naples and beyond. Within the city, there are more than 100 taxi ranks, outside stations and major tourist attractions and at Metro stations, at the Port of Naples and at Molo Beverello and Mergellina seafronts.

Not all taxi companies accept credit cards, but some do. If you book your taxi in advance online, you can be assured of the fixed fee and avoid a nasty surprise with metered taxis: there are lots of surcharges, for peak travel times, for travelling with more than the basic luggage allowance, with small pets or simply travelling between the hours of 10.00 pm and 6.00 am. All taxis are metered, and are usually white in colour. By law fares, metered and fixed, must be displayed on the back of the taxi's front seat to allow passengers to make a choice.

Surcharges can be baffling. Travelling on Sundays and on public holidays will be surcharged. Starting your journey from Naples Airport will incur an airport fee on top of the regular fare into Naples. Therefore, choosing the flat rate option, if you don't speak Italian for lengthy negotiations, is probably best. Business travelers should note that it is not permitted for Naples' taxi drivers to hand out receipts that do not display the fare accurately.

A guide to flat rates to Naples destinations:

• Naples Airport to Naples Central Train Station – 19.00 to 21.00 euros
• Naples Airport to Piazza Municipo and the Port – 21.00 to 23.00 euros
• Naples International Airport to the National Museum – 21.00 to 23.00 euros
• Naples Airport into historic city center – 19.00 euros

Those are typical fares for one to two passengers. Four people travelling from Naples Airport into central Naples will cost ca. 34.00 euros in a private Economy taxi.

Out of Town Journeys

Travelling out of town to cities like Amalfi, Potenza, Vesuvius or Sorrento can be rather expensive. For example, a one-way trip to Amalfi from Naples Airport or city center locations costs from 96.00 euros to 140.00 euros, depending on the type of vehicle used, for example a Mercedes E-class vehicle or a minibus, and the number of passengers. Amalfi is located 74 km from Naples. The trip takes ca. 1 hour and 30 minutes.

Travelling by taxi to nearby Pompei, a 29-km distance from Naples, takes ca. 40 minutes, costing between 57.00 euros and 100.00 euros, depending on the type of vehicle used, time of day and number of passengers.

A private taxi to Sorrento costs from 77.00 euros to 140.00 euros, depending on time traveled, type of vehicle and number of passengers. For example, an Economy taxi trip might cost only 77.00 euros for 2 travelers, but a business-class taxi will be charged at ca. 110.00 euros for the same trip and number of passengers.

There is also a charge of ca. 21.50 euros for every extra hour's wait that the pre-arranged taxi has to do, when picking up at the airport or at city center locations.
