How to reach Vietri sul Mare
You
will probably arrive by airplane either at Rome, Fiumicino Airport
(FCO) (named "Leonardo
Da Vinci"),
or at Naples, "Capodichino Airport".
In both cases you will find here
after the instructions (A or B, respectively) to reach by train the
Salerno Railway Station (Salerno), unless you arrive in Capodichino
and can profit from the direct bus Capodichino-Salerno (see B*
below). If you arrive by bus in Naples, you can directly read
instruction B2.
Once in Salerno you may reach Vietri by bus.
Take bus n. 4 or bus n. 9 from Salerno Railway Station to the first
stop in Vietri. You should buy the ticket ("UNICO Salerno",
also called "urbano") at the railway station's newsagent or
at the CSTP office, and stamp it on the bus. Remember that the ticket
is valid for 90 minutes.
Another possibility is to take a taxi at
the cost of about euros 10,00 from Salerno Railway Station Square
directly to Vietri.
A.
From Rome Airport (Leonardo da Vinci) to Salerno.
You have the following two steps.
A1:
From Rome Airport (Leonardo da Vinci) to Rome Railway Station (Roma
Termini).
You may reach Rome Railway Station ("Roma Termini") from Rome Airport
("Leonardo da Vinci") by train;
taxi is not advisable because of distance
and cost.
Once at the Arrival Exit follow the signs to the Railway Station
inside the Airport ("Fiumicino Aeroporto") and take the train to Rome
Railway Station (Roma Termini): the ticket must be bought at the FS
office (euros 14,00) and stamped at the yellow machines before
getting on the train. At the same office you can also buy the ticket
from Rome Railway Station ("Roma Termini") to Salerno Railway Station
(Salerno).
(Remember to stamp the ticket at the yellow machines before getting
on the train.)
A2:
From Rome Railway Station (Roma Termini) to Salerno Railway Station
(Salerno).
Once in Rome Railway Station ("Roma Termini") get a train to Salerno
Railway Station (Salerno) (we suggest Alta Velocita - TAV
trains).
(Remember to stamp the ticket at the yellow machines before getting
on the train.)
There
is an on-line official timetable of the Italian
Railways (FS)
and
you can use the names of the railway stations we quoted above in
parentheses ("Fiumicino Aeroporto", "Roma Termini", "Salerno") as departure
or arrival stations. Tickets
can be purchased online at the same URL.
B.
From Naples Airport (Capodichino) to Salerno Railway Station
(Salerno) by train
You
have the following two steps, unless you can profit from the direct
bus Capodichino-Salerno, or you want to take
a taxi directly from Capodichino airport to Vietri (see B* below).
B1:
From Naples Airport (Capodichino) to Naples Railway Station (Napoli
Centrale). At Naples Airport (Capodichino) you may take the bus 3S
(orange bus) just in front of the Airport entrance (every 15
minutes): the tickets are sold inside the Airport at the newsagents
and should be stamped on the bus. You have to get down at "Piazza
Garibaldi" (Garibaldi Square) and walk a little bit through the
square towards Naples Railway Station ("Napoli Centrale"). There's
also a direct bus departing from the parking lot just on the right
of the Airport Arrival gate ("Alibus" - ticket on board).
Another possibility is to take a taxi (predetermined fare euros
15,50).
B2:
From Naples Railway Station (Napoli Centrale) to Salerno Railway
Station (Salerno). Once in Naples Railway Station ("Napoli Centrale") get a train to
Salerno Railway Station (Salerno). (Remember
to stamp the ticket at the yellow machines before getting on the
train.)
There
is an on-line official timetable of the Italian
Railways (FS)
and
you can use the names of the railway stations we quoted above in
parentheses ("Napoli Centrale", "Salerno") as departure or arrival
stations. For the sake of completeness, you should consider also
departures from "Napoli Piazza Garibaldi", which is another
railway station, exactly under Napoli Centrale (there is a direct
stairway). Tickets
can be purchased online at the same URL.
B*.
From Naples Airport (Capodichino) to Salerno Railway Station
(Salerno) by bus.
At Naples Airport (Capodichino)
You
may take the SITA bus running directly to Salerno (euros 7,00).
This bus runs only 4 times a day (at
9:30 am, 1:30 pm, 3:30 pm and 7:30 pm),
and not on Sunday, therefore you must check carefully the timetable.
The
bus is leaving from the street ahead of the Airport, but you have to
walk some 300 meters to reach the bus-stop (it is not evident from
indications).
In
alternative, you can take a taxi directly from the Capodichino
airport to Vietri sul Mare at a predetermined fare of € 80,00 for
IWCV. To this purpose you must call the number 0815515421 and ask for
a radio taxi to Vietri for IWCV. Note that taxi drivers outside the
arrivals hall may not be aware of the above predetermined fare. Thus,
calling the radio taxi number is necessary to have that fare.
