Where do I take a taxi from?

Convenience

A Verona Airport to Malcesine taxi is one of the most convenient options for leaving the airport and reaching your hotel or apartment directly. It’s much faster than using public transport as you can simply walk up to the rank, hop in a taxi from the rank, and get where you need to go. However, keep in mind that long queues during the summer can slow you down if you’re in a hurry.

Editor’s Note

Taxis are ideal for travelers looking for cheaper door-to-door transportation and don't mind waiting a bit at the taxi rank.

Useful Tips

Avoid drivers offering "cheap" rides to tourists in the parking lot, and only take a taxi from the official taxi rank.

Most sedan taxis can usually accommodate up to 4 passengers and 4 pieces of luggage.

Standard taxis at the rank aren't equipped with accessibility ramps; plan your transportation with a specialized operator if you're traveling in a wheelchair.

Card payment is usually not an option, so make sure to carry cash in euros or ask the driver if they have a working card machine installed in the taxi.

Tipping your driver isn't expected in Italy, but you can round up the total fare if you want to add a small tip.
