BookaTaxiHow to book a taxi in Larino
Updated: July 12, 2026 · Province of CB
Larino doesn't have a dedicated radio taxi: head to a taxi rank (station, main squares) or book a private transfer.
In Larino, a town of about 6,500 residents in the province of Campobasso, there is no radio-taxi service with a local dispatch office: neither the Comune's website nor regional operators list a dedicated local taxi. Anyone needing a ride must therefore turn to a driver or NCC (chauffeur service) in the area, or to a taxi based in nearby Termoli (about 22 km) or Campobasso (about 30 km), booking well in advance, especially during events such as the Festa di San Pardo. The most practical option remains asking your hotel, B&B, or agriturismo for a direct contact, as they usually have the number of a trusted driver. The main ride-hailing apps and national taxi apps (Uber, FreeNow, itTaxi, Wetaxi, appTaxi, BTaxi, InTaxi) do not currently appear to be active in Larino or elsewhere in lower Molise. For getting around the historic center, among the Roman amphitheater, Cattedrale di San Pardo, and Palazzo Ducale, a taxi is in any case rarely needed: the old town is easily explored on foot.

Taxi from the airport
Aeroporto Internazionale d'Abruzzo (Pescara) (PSR) · ~115 km from the center
There is no published fixed fare for the Larino-airport route: agree on the price with the driver when booking, or ask for a phone quote in advance, since the journey (about 115 km, 1h30 by car) crosses several municipalities and runs along the Bifernina (SS 87).
Practical tips
- Larino's historic center, with the Roman amphitheater, Cattedrale di San Pardo, and Palazzo Ducale, is small and easily explored on foot: a taxi is mainly useful for reaching the railway station (Termoli-Campobasso line), the Vietri hospital, or nearby towns.
- Since there is no radio-taxi dispatch office based in Larino, book your ride a day in advance through your accommodation, which often has the contact of a trusted local driver or NCC.
- During the Festa di San Pardo (May 25-27), with its parade of decorated carts pulled by oxen, the historic center is closed to traffic: plan to be dropped off outside the parade area and book your return trip well in advance, as demand for rides increases significantly.
- For the nearest airport (Abruzzo-Pescara, about 115 km away), it's best to agree on a flat rate with the driver before setting off, since there is no published fixed fare for the route.
- If you're getting around to visit the local olive mills and olive-growing estates, ask in advance about return times: outside the town center, rides need to be arranged ahead of time, since there are no taxis on fixed standby.
