Naples Travel Guide

Getting Around Naples

Naples has a public transport network consisting of buses, trolleys and a subway, which is complicated to use but preferable to taking on the city''s notorious traffic jams in a hired car or taxi. Tickets for all forms of transport are uniform, and can be obtained at stations and kiosks that advertise the ''Gira Napoli'' (Naples Pass). The city''s ANM buses are fairly frequent, most departing from the Piazza Garibaldi. There are two metro lines, the ''Metropolitana'' line being the one that serves downtown (where most sights are located). Funicular railways run up the Vomero from stations at Piazza Montesanto, Amadeo and Augusto. There are taxi ranks in most piazzas, but using a taxi can prove expensive because of traffic congestion.
