BookaTaxiHow to book a taxi in Cuneo
Updated: July 11, 2026 · Province of CN
To book a taxi in Cuneo, call the radio taxi at 0171 692113 or use the InTaxi app. Taxis don't stop on the street: you book them or catch one at a taxi rank.
In Cuneo, the simplest way to find a taxi is to call the single radiotaxi number 0171 692113, active for immediate calls: the first available taxi circulating in the city will answer. The service is regulated by the Comune di Cuneo, which sets metered fares and night or holiday surcharges; there is no municipal online booking platform, so phoning remains the main channel for calling a ride. Alternatively, the inTaxi app lets you recall the same city radiotaxi service from your smartphone, while major international players such as Uber, FreeNow or itTaxi are not yet operating in the provincial capital. A convenient reference point for finding a taxi "on sight" is the taxi rank in front of the railway station at Piazzale della Libertà, just outside the historic center. For those arriving from Cuneo-Levaldigi airport, about 16 km from the center, taxis are available on call but without a fixed agreed fare, so it's best to ask for an estimate at the time of booking.

Apps to call a taxi in Cuneo
| Uber — Uber does not operate in Cuneo: the official list of covered cities in Piemonte includes only Torino and the towns in its metropolitan area (e.g. Moncalieri, Collegno, Rivoli), not the provincial capital of Cuneo.

Taxi from the airport
Aeroporto di Cuneo-Levaldigi (CUF) · ~16 km from the center
Levaldigi airport has no fixed agreed taxi fare: the ride (about 16 km, 20-25 minutes) is calculated on the meter according to Cuneo's municipal fares. Flight connections from Levaldigi are limited (Ryanair to Cagliari and Palermo, Aeroitalia to Cagliari and Olbia, Air Arabia to Casablanca), so for many international destinations it's worth considering Torino Caselle airport, about 100 km and over an hour's drive from Cuneo. An Aerobus service is also available from Levaldigi to the railway stations of Cuneo and Fossano.
Limited Traffic Zone (ZTL)
The historic center has a nighttime ZTL (Limited Traffic Zone) from 20:30 to 7:00 every day (including holidays), in the area bounded by corso Kennedy, lungo Stura Giovanni XXIII, via Nota/via Leutrum, and via Bonelli/via Seminario; between 7:00 and 20:30 traffic is unrestricted for everyone. On via Roma and contrada Mondovì, the pedestrian axis of the center, private cars are banned 24 hours a day, seven days a week: taxis, as an authorized category, may still access it to pick up and drop off passengers.
Practical tips
- Cuneo's historic center stretches along a long plateau between the Stura and Gesso rivers: the via Roma-contrada Mondovì axis is almost entirely pedestrian and off-limits to private cars 24 hours a day, so for hotels or restaurants in this area a taxi can only drop you at the edge of the ZTL.
- Cuneo's railway station (Piazzale della Libertà) is the main reference point for finding a taxi 'on sight' without calling the single number.
- For the alpine valleys (Valle Stura, Valle Gesso, Valle Grana) or to reach the Terme di Valdieri and the Parco delle Alpi Marittime, it's best to agree on the fare and waiting time with the driver when you call, since these trips fall outside the city's 'altipiano' fare zone.
- To reach Alba and le Langhe (wine tastings, Fiera del Tartufo) the ride exceeds 50 km: it's advisable to ask for a phone quote before getting in, since the extra-urban per-kilometer fare applies.
- Levaldigi airport has limited flights to just a few destinations: for most international connections, many locals from Cuneo prefer Torino Caselle airport, reachable in about an hour and a quarter by car.

Does Uber work in Cuneo?
No. In Uber's official list of covered Italian cities, only Torino and the towns in its metropolitan belt appear in Piemonte: Cuneo is not among the cities served, so it's best to use the local radiotaxi or the inTaxi app.
How much does a taxi ride cost from Levaldigi airport to central Cuneo?
There is no fixed agreed fare for this route: the roughly 16 km ride (20-25 minutes) is calculated on the meter according to the current municipal fares; it's advisable to ask for an estimate when you call.
How much does a taxi ride cost in central Cuneo?
According to municipal fares, a daytime ride on the altipiano with luggage costs 9 €, a nighttime or holiday ride costs 10 €; outside the altipiano a fixed starting fee of 4 € applies plus the per-kilometer fare (0,85 €/km round trip, 1,70 €/km one way), with surcharges for bulky luggage (0,55 € each) and medium/large-sized animals (2 €).
Where are the taxi ranks in the city?
The main reference point is the taxi rank in front of Cuneo's railway station, in Piazzale della Libertà. In the rest of the center, most of the via Roma-contrada Mondovì axis is pedestrian and closed to traffic 24 hours a day, so it's best to call the single number rather than look for a taxi 'on sight'.
