  • Alibus Shuttle: The dedicated Alibus airport shuttle is the best way to travel into the city. It departs frequently from the terminal, taking about 20 minutes to reach Napoli Centrale station, and 35 minutes to reach the Molo Beverello ferry port.
  • Taxi: A fixed-rate taxi ride to the central station or port takes roughly 15 minutes.
  • Onward Connections: Once you arrive at Napoli Centrale via the shuttle, you can immediately connect to the Circumvesuviana train to reach Sorrento or Pompeii, or catch a bus to the Amalfi Coast.

Day Trips from Naples: Transport Hub

Naples is the perfect base camp for exploring the surrounding UNESCO heritage sites and coastal towns. Here is how to navigate the most popular routes:

  • Naples to Sorrento: Head to the underground level of Napoli Centrale and take the regional Circumvesuviana train. The journey takes about 1 hour.
  • Naples to Pompeii: Take the same Circumvesuviana train toward Sorrento, but disembark at the Pompei Scavi-Villa dei Misteri stop. The trip takes just 35 minutes.
  • Naples to Capri: Head to the Molo Beverello port and catch a high-speed ferry or hydrofoil. The scenic crossing to Capri takes roughly 50 minutes.
  • Naples to the Amalfi Coast (Amalfi town): You can take a direct ferry from Naples to Amalfi during the summer, or take the train to Sorrento and transfer to the local SITA bus for a stunning coastal drive.

Travelling to Naples & Day Trips FAQs

The absolute best way to travel from Rome or Florence to Naples is by high-speed train (Trenitalia's Frecciarossa or Italo). The journey from Rome takes just 1 hour and 15 minutes, while the trip from Florence takes around 3 hours, arriving directly at Napoli Centrale.

Taking a long-distance bus (like FlixBus or Itabus) is usually the cheapest domestic option. If you are flying, booking budget airlines into Naples Airport (NAP) well in advance can yield massive savings. Advance regional train tickets are also very budget-friendly.

The train (Circumvesuviana) is the cheapest and most reliable year-round option, taking about 1 hour. However, during the summer months, taking a ferry from Naples to Sorrento is highly recommended for its incredible views of the coastline and Mount Vesuvius, taking about 40 minutes.

Naples connects to all these destinations seamlessly. Use the Circumvesuviana train from Napoli Centrale for Pompeii and Sorrento. For Capri, Positano, and the Amalfi Coast, taking a direct ferry from the Naples Molo Beverello port is the fastest and most scenic option during the high season.

The easiest way is to take the official Alibus airport shuttle. It departs from just outside the arrivals terminal and makes dedicated stops at Napoli Centrale train station (20 minutes) and the city's main ferry ports (35 minutes).
