Taxi, fixed airport fareorCaronna coach to Florence?

The short answer

These do not go to the same place, so price is not the comparison. The Taxi, fixed airport fare reaches Pisa Centrale station and the old city; the Caronna coach to Florence does not. This goes to Florence, not Pisa. The day coach terminates at Guidoni, on the T2 tram, about 15 minutes and EUR 2.00 short of the centre; the dearer night service runs all the way to Santa Maria Novella.

The Taxi, fixed airport fare is quicker: 10 min against 1 h 10.

Taxi, fixed airport fare: hours not recorded. Caronna coach to Florence: Runs all night.

At two people this is probably cheaper than the shuttle — EUR 10.60 against EUR 13.00.

But ask first. The published supplements for night, luggage and the fourth passenger onwards do not say whether they apply to this fixed fare, so agree the price before you set off.

It may legally carry up to eight passengers, so a family or a group should compare it against eight shuttle tickets at EUR 52.00.

Piazza del Duomo — for the Leaning Tower — has its own fixed fare of EUR 14.20.

Between midnight and 06:00 this is the only way into Pisa at all.

By day it stops at Guidoni, not in Florence. Add a tram ride of about 15 minutes and EUR 2.00, and count that before comparing it with anything.

The night service is dearer and goes further — all the way to Santa Maria Novella.

Both fares are starting prices, not fixed ones.
