NAP → Naples · head to head

Pre-booked private transferorAlibus and NLG hydrofoil to Capri?

The short answer

These do not go to the same place, so price is not the comparison. The Pre-booked private transfer reaches Napoli Centrale (Piazza Garibaldi), the old town, and the port at Molo Beverello and Piazza Municipio; the Alibus and NLG hydrofoil to Capri does not. This goes on by hydrofoil to Capri, landing at Marina Grande below the town. It does not stop in Naples on the way.

The Pre-booked private transfer is quicker: 20 min against 2 h.

Pre-booked private transfer: Runs all night. Alibus and NLG hydrofoil to Capri: 08:35–17:40, Daily, 1 April to 3 November 2026.

The Capri landing contribution of EUR 5.00 (April to October) is added to NLG's ticket price, so the EUR 23.00 and EUR 25.00 fares become EUR 28.00 and EUR 30.00.

A suitcase is not free on NLG: one piece up to 50x30x15 cm and 5 kg travels without charge, and larger luggage is checked in at EUR 5.00 a piece.

The Alibus stops at Porta di Massa first and Molo Beverello last. NLG's hydrofoils leave from Molo Beverello, so ride to the end.

NLG's timetable runs to 3 November 2026; check its site for a later date.

The slower ferries to Capri leave from Calata Porta di Massa, the Alibus stop before Beverello, and no fare for them is shown here.

NLG refunds the ticket if it cancels a sailing for technical reasons or sea conditions.
