Getting around Naples

How to get around Naples by bus, tram, subway, funicular, and taxi

The most useful form of transportation in Naples for the tourist is the bus and tram system. That and your feet.

There is a Metro (subway) in Naples, but it's really more of a commuter line. Though it is handy for getting to a few outlying sights—and if you happen to decide to get a hotel in a neighborhood other than the center—you otherwise will probably not use it all that much.

Whatever you do, do not attempt to drive in Naples. It has the worst traffic in all of Europe. I kid you not. If you happen to arrive by car, stick it in a garage as soon as humanly possible and don't get it out again until you're ready to leave.

Here is how the various forms of public transportation in Naples work:

• Getting around Naples by bus/tram/funicular
• Getting around Naples by taxi
• Getting around by car (hint: don't park it)
• Tours of Naples
