How to book a taxi in Enna
Updated: July 12, 2026 · Province of EN
To book a taxi in Enna, call the radio taxi at 0935 530525. Taxis don't stop on the street: you book them or catch one at a taxi rank.
Enna, the highest of Italy's provincial capitals, has no widespread taxi ranks or active ride-hailing platforms: the most reliable way to get around is to call a local operator directly, such as taxi Autonoleggio Bevilacqua, or to book an NCC (private hire) service in advance. This is especially true for anyone arriving at the train station, about 5 km from the historic centre with a considerable climb to cover, or for anyone needing to reach Catania-Fontanarossa airport, roughly 85 km away. Since there is no fixed fare table for out-of-town routes, it's always best to agree on the price or ask for a quote when calling. Rides within town, for the short hop around the historic centre near Castello di Lombardia and Torre di Federico II, remain quick and inexpensive.

Taxi from the airport
Aeroporto di Catania-Fontanarossa (CTA) · ~85 km from the center
There is no fixed taxi fare for the Enna-Catania airport route: the ride, about 85 km and over an hour's drive, is calculated on the meter or agreed as a quote with the operator at the time of booking. Palermo (Falcone-Borsellino airport) is farther away and a less practical alternative.
Limited Traffic Zone (ZTL)
A seasonal ZTL (restricted traffic zone) is active in Enna's historic centre (via Roma alta, between piazza Alessi/"Balata" and piazza Coppola), introduced by the Comune on summer weekends and for special events, with a ban on transit and parking generally in force from 19:30 to midnight. Vehicles providing public transport service (taxis) are among the categories exempt from the ban.
Practical tips
- Enna's train station is about 5 km from the historic centre, up a steep climb: it's better to book a taxi in advance rather than hope to hail one on the spot.
- On summer weekends and during events, the Comune activates a seasonal ZTL in via Roma alta, between piazza Alessi and piazza Coppola: vehicles providing public transport service (taxis) are among the categories exempt from the ban.
- For the Villa Romana del Casale in Piazza Armerina (UNESCO mosaics), about 30 km away, or for Lago di Pergusa, always agree on the round-trip fare before setting off: there is no fixed fare table for out-of-town rides.
- None of the main ride-hailing apps (Uber, FreeNow, itTaxi...) appear to be operating in Enna: it's best to save the number of a local operator or radio taxi service in your phone.
- In winter, the town, which sits at 930 metres above sea level, can be shrouded in fog or buffeted by wind: allow a few extra minutes for trips to the historic centre.
