The historic centre of Perugia (the Acropoli area and surrounding districts) is a ZTL (limited traffic zone) from midnight to 1pm on weekdays and from midnight to 7am on Saturdays and public holidays; taxis are among the authorized vehicles and can enter even when transit is banned for non-resident private cars.
Practical tips
- There are staffed taxi ranks in Piazza Italia, in Piazza Matteotti (near the escalator and the minimetrò to the historic centre), and in front of the Fontivegge railway station.
- During Umbria Jazz (mid-July) and other major city events, demand for taxis rises sharply: it's best to book ahead by phone or app.
- For some frequent routes within the city (e.g. centre-station, centre-hospital) fixed fares set by the Comune apply; for other destinations the meter is used.
