How do I get from Naples airport to Naples city center?
For one traveler the cheapest way is the Alibus at €5, 13–23 min, and it is also the fastest. From 6 travelers the Taxi works out cheaper, because its fare is per vehicle rather than per person. Every option below is priced as a total for your party and says where it leaves you.
3 listed options
Not everything runs around the clock: the Alibus runs 05:30–00:00. Outside those hours, the Taxi, fixed fare to Stazione Centrale and the old town and the Taxi, fixed fare to the port and Piazza Municipio are what remain.

Going somewhere specific?
"The center" is not one place, and the answer changes
The Alibus leaves from its own stop right outside the terminal, at the arrivals exit.
Tickets
Ticket machines are at the arrivals exit, on the ground floor, and the driver sells tickets on board too. Ask for the integrated version — the same EUR 5.00 also covers 90 minutes on the metro.
The taxi rank
The taxi rank is directly opposite the arrivals hall. Ask for the tariffa predeterminata as you set off — the driver must accept it and show 'F0.00' on the meter.
Uber and Bolt
Uber operates at Naples airport with no single named pickup point. Request a ride and follow the app's own directions to the meeting spot.

It does not go into the old town. The stops are Piazza Garibaldi, Porta di Massa and Molo Beverello, in that order; for Toledo, the Spanish Quarter or Spaccanapoli you change to Metro Line 1 at Garibaldi, which the EUR 5 integrated ticket covers.
Four of you pay EUR 20 and five pay EUR 25; the fixed taxi fare to the station is EUR 21 and EUR 26. From six people the taxi is cheaper.
ANM's own page says 15 minutes to the station and 35 to the port; ANM's own timetable schedules 18 to 23 and 40 to 50 by day. Plan on the timetable.
If ANM's luggage rule is applied on this bus, a large suitcase needs a second EUR 5 ticket, and with a bag each the taxi wins from three people. The Alibus page does not say either way.
Last bus from the airport is at midnight. The airport itself is closed 22:30 to 03:30 except for delayed flights.
Validate the ticket as you board and keep it; the ordinary EUR 1.30 ticket and every pass are invalid on this bus.

The fixed fare from the airport to Centro Direzionale, Gianturco, Stazione Centrale, Piazza Garibaldi, and any address in the ZTL Centro Storico, is EUR 21.00 per car, 24 hours a day, with every supplement included except motorway tolls. A 7- to 9-seat car adds EUR 5.00, so eight passengers pay EUR 26.00.

Say "tariffa predeterminata" before the car moves. The driver must accept, give you a receipt with the route and amount before departure, and show "F0.00" on the meter. A running meter means the ordinary tariff, with a EUR 5.00 airport supplement and EUR 0.50 a bag on top.
Ask for a larger car if there are more than four of you. The tariff adds EUR 5.00 for a 7- to 9-seat taxi, which is EUR 26.00 for five to eight — still cheaper than six Alibus tickets, and a family of eight rides for EUR 3.25 each.
The fare is a zone, not an address list. Stazione Centrale, Piazza Garibaldi and the ZTL Centro Storico are EUR 21.00; the port and Piazza Municipio are EUR 24.00; the seafront hotels, Mergellina and Vomero are EUR 28.50. For anywhere else the meter runs.
No authority publishes a taxi journey time. The figure here is the Alibus's scheduled time over the same road; Naples traffic decides the rest.
A shared "taxi collettivo" at EUR 6.00 a head, luggage included, leaves from near the Viale Ruffo di Calabria roundabout once three passengers have gathered, for the station and the port. It is voluntary for drivers and has no fixed hours, so do not plan a late arrival around it.
It is the only option here that certainly runs all night, and the price does not change at night.

Request the fixed fare before departure and check the meter shows "F0.00"; the driver must issue a receipt first.
From six people this beats the Alibus to the port: EUR 29.00 in a larger taxi against EUR 30.00 in tickets, and it takes you to the pier rather than the bus stop.
No authority publishes a taxi journey time. The figure here is scaled from the Alibus's scheduled 40 to 50 minutes to the port, which stops twice on the way; the taxi does not.
The old town is a cheaper zone. If you are staying in the centro storico rather than by the port, the EUR 21.00 fare applies.

The ordinary ANM single, EUR 1.30, valid for one ride on one ANM vehicle. To carry on by metro at Piazza Cavour, the Museo or Piazza Dante, buy the EUR 1.80 integrated 90-minute ticket instead. A day ticket is EUR 4.50.
It is EUR 1.30 against the Alibus's EUR 5.00 and reaches the historic centre in a scheduled 23 minutes, which the Alibus does not reach at all.
The stop is outside the airport, on Viale Umberto Maddalena. ANM's stop coordinates put it about 430 metres from the Alibus stop; no authority describes the walk.
It does not serve Piazza Garibaldi or the port. For Napoli Centrale or a ferry, this is the wrong bus.
Frequency varies from every 8 minutes at weekday peaks to every 50 on Sunday afternoons; the timetable is on ANM's line page.
Lines 180 and C68 also pass the same stop and neither enters the centre.
The Sunday window at the airport-road stop is the narrowest in the week. Weekdays it runs 05:59 to 23:56, every 8 to 12 minutes at peak and every 27 to 32 off-peak; Saturdays 06:03 to 22:43, every 20 minutes.

The Alibus runs 05:30–00:00. Outside those hours taxi, fixed fare to stazione centrale and the old town and taxi, fixed fare to the port and piazza municipio are what remains, at €21 for the vehicle. 104 departures a day from the airport, every day of the week the same, at intervals of 5, 10 or 15 minutes and never longer, 05:30 to midnight.

Does the ANM bus 182 go to Napoli Centrale (Piazza Garibaldi), the old town, and the port at Molo Beverello and Piazza Municipio?
It reaches the old town — Piazza Cavour, the Museo and Piazza Dante — but never Piazza Garibaldi, Napoli Centrale or the port. It does not leave from the terminal: the stop is on the main road outside the airport, a walk nobody signposts. Right only if you are staying around the museum, Piazza Dante or Toledo and traveling light.
Worth knowing
The taxi is EUR 21.00 per car to Stazione Centrale, Piazza Garibaldi or any address in the old town's ZTL, 24 hours a day, with every supplement included. Five to eight people in a larger taxi pay EUR 26.00. Four people pay EUR 20 on the Alibus and five pay EUR 25; from six the taxi is cheaper, at EUR 3.25 a head for eight.
Ask for the fixed fare before you set off — the driver may not refuse. The driver must hand you a receipt with the route and amount before leaving, and the meter should show "F0.00". If the meter is running instead, you are on the ordinary tariff: EUR 4.00 by day, EUR 7.50 at night, plus a EUR 5.00 airport supplement and EUR 0.50 a bag.
The Alibus is EUR 5 and goes to the station and the port, not the old town. It leaves the airport every 5 to 15 minutes from 05:30 to midnight, stopping at Piazza Garibaldi for Napoli Centrale, then Porta di Massa for the island ferries and Molo Beverello for the hydrofoils. Buy the "UNICO Alibus integrato" version at the same EUR 5: it adds 90 minutes on the metro and city buses, which the plain single does not. No ordinary ticket, pass or Artecard is accepted on board.
Anm line 182 stops on Viale Umberto Maddalena, the main road along the airport's southern edge, about 430 metres from the Alibus stop, and reaches Piazza Cavour, the Archaeological Museum and Piazza Dante in a scheduled 17 to 23 minutes for the EUR 1.30 single. It never goes to Piazza Garibaldi or the port, it is a city bus with city-bus luggage rules, and nobody signposts the walk.
The airport itself is shut from 22:30 to 03:30 except for delayed flights. The Alibus runs until midnight; between midnight and 05:30 the fixed-fare taxi is what remains, at the same EUR 21 or EUR 26 it charges by day.
A shared "taxi collettivo" runs airport to Stazione Centrale to Molo Beverello at EUR 6 a head, from a stand near the Viale Ruffo di Calabria roundabout, about 100 metres from Arrivals, leaving 15 minutes after the first three passengers arrive. Drivers join it voluntarily, so it has no fixed timetable. For three people with suitcases it is EUR 18 against EUR 21 for a car of your own.
ANM's page says 15 minutes to Stazione Centrale and 35 to the port; its own timetable schedules 18 to 23 minutes by day and 40 to 50 to the port, falling to 13 to 17 and 25 to 30 after 21:00. Allow the longer figure, especially with a ferry to catch.
