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.

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

The slower ferries to Procida (Caremar, Medmar) leave from Calata Porta di Massa, the Alibus stop before Beverello; no fare for them is shown here.

The fare changes with the departure and the day; EUR 23.80 is the lowest SNAV showed for a Wednesday in October.
