BookaTaxiHow to book a taxi in Venafro
Updated: July 12, 2026 · Province of IS
To book a taxi in Venafro, call the radio taxi at 368 348 7036. Taxis don't stop on the street: you book them or catch one at a taxi rank.
Venafro does not have a genuine municipal radio-taxi hub with several cars permanently stationed: the most reliable way to get around is to call a local operator directly, such as Cuzzi Viaggi (Autonoleggio e Servizio Taxi Umberto Cuzzi), available 24 hours a day at 368 348 7036. It's advisable to book well in advance, especially for longer routes to Napoli Capodichino airport, the A1 motorway exit at Caianello, or the railway station on the Roma-Campobasso line, given the limited number of cars available in a town of around 10,000 inhabitants. The main ride-hailing apps such as Uber and FreeNow are not active in the town, so booking by phone remains the only viable option. Hotels and B&Bs in the area, often close to the historic center and Castello Pandone, can also help arrange a taxi or a trusted NCC (chauffeur-driven car hire) service.

Taxi from the airport
Aeroporto di Napoli Capodichino (NAP) · ~85 km from the center
There is no fixed fare for the Venafro–Napoli Capodichino Airport route: it's an out-of-town transfer of about 85 km (over an hour's drive via the A1), so it's always best to ask the driver or the NCC operator for a quote at the time of booking.
Practical tips
- Book in advance, especially for Napoli Capodichino airport or the A1 exit at Caianello: there are only a few cars available in Venafro.
- Venafro railway station, on the Roma-Campobasso line, has a limited number of trains per day: call your taxi ahead of time so it's waiting when your train arrives.
- To visit the Verlasce Roman amphitheater, the remains of the Rivus Venafranus aqueduct, and Castello Pandone in the historic center, a taxi avoids parking problems in the narrow streets of the old town.
- Since there is no fixed urban fare, always ask for a cost estimate when booking, especially for out-of-town routes to Isernia, Caserta or Napoli.
- Venafro is a strategic crossroads between Molise and Campania: if you arrive by car and leave your vehicle near the A1 tollgate, a local taxi can be handy for the last stretch into the town center.
