How to book a taxi in Gubbio
Updated: July 8, 2026 · Province of PG
To book a taxi in Gubbio, call the radio taxi at 339 2488193 or use the itTaxi app. Taxis don't stop on the street: you book them or catch one at a taxi rank.
Gubbio doesn't have a proper radio-taxi cooperative: the service is provided by a handful of license holders, the main one being Gubbio Taxi run by Giorgio Fiorucci, based in Piazza 40 Martiri and bookable by phone 24 hours a day at 339 2488193. Alternatively, there's the itTaxi app, which also covers Gubbio, but since this is a small town it's still worth having the driver's direct number on hand.

Taxi from the airport
Aeroporto di Perugia "San Francesco d'Assisi" (PEG) · ~42 km from the center
There is no fixed fare from the airport to Gubbio: the ride (about 42 km, 45-50 minutes) is charged by the meter. Perugia airport's flat rates only apply to Perugia, Assisi, and Bastia Umbra, so for Gubbio it's best to book the local taxi directly in advance.
Limited Traffic Zone (ZTL)
The historic center of Gubbio (enclosed within the walls, with the exception of Piazza 40 Martiri) is a ZTL, a Limited Traffic Zone monitored by electronic gates. Taxis with a municipal license are on the permanent whitelist and can enter at any time; private cars, however, must comply with the gates' opening and closing hours.
Practical tips
- The reference point for finding a taxi without booking is Piazza 40 Martiri, the large open square at the base of the historic center where taxis usually wait and shuttle buses arrive.
- The historic center of Gubbio is protected by a ZTL with electronic gates, but authorized taxis are on the Comune's permanent whitelist and can pass through and enter at any time, unlike private cars.
- During high season (Corsa dei Ceri in May, Palio della Balestra in May, the living nativity scene and Christmas luminaria in December) demand for taxis rises sharply: booking a bit in advance avoids waiting around in the square.
