Common questions
How much is a taxi from Naples airport to the centre?
Licensed taxis have fixed fares from the airport to set zones of the city, roughly €19–30 depending on whether you go to the station, the port or the seafront hotels. Ask for the fixed fare ("tariffa predeterminata") before departing; the tariffs are shown inside the car. Use the official rank outside Arrivals.
How do I get from Naples airport to the ferry for Capri?
Take the Alibus to its Molo Beverello stop, the main port for fast ferries to Capri, Ischia and Procida. It takes about 30–40 minutes depending on traffic and costs around €5. A taxi on the fixed fare is quicker if you are in a hurry or carrying lots of luggage.
Is there a bus from Naples airport to Sorrento?
Yes, a direct coach runs from the airport to Sorrento several times a day, taking about 75–90 minutes. Alternatively, take the Alibus to Napoli Centrale and the Circumvesuviana train to Sorrento, which is cheaper but slower and often crowded. A private transfer is easiest with luggage.
Does the Alibus run at night?
The Alibus runs roughly from early morning until around midnight. Check last departures on the timetable at the stop if you land late. After that, licensed taxis at the rank outside Arrivals are the practical option, with fixed fares to the centre still applying.
