Taxis at Paestum
 
Does anyone know if there are taxis available at Paestum? I am taking a group of students there and I want to take them to Vannulo for gelato and I thought the easiest way would be to take a taxis. Thank you in advance for any help or info!

I apologize in advance for what will seem a non-response, but have you thought of taking them for something made with buffalo mozzarella instead? It is a local specialty and is available at the cafes beside the site. Sorry, I don't know whether taxis are available....

BTW, do include time to visit the museum while there -- it has some very unusual pieces and is well laid out.

Enjoy! Paestum is wonderful. Your students are lucky that you are making this option available to them. :-)

yes, I have been to Paestum, and I have been to Vannulo before. It is a buffalo mozzarella farm, the sells, yoghurt, gelato, mozzarella, and other goods. There is also a leather shop. I love the museum there. Tomb of the diver is in all of our art history books. Mainly i need help getting from Paestum to Vannulo. I usually have a car of my own, but since I am taking students, we are using public trans.

The Tomb of the Diver is amazing, isn't it?

Sorry I wasn't of greater assistance.

Good luck!

I would suggest arranging for a driver to meet you at Paestum when the visit is over.

I do not recall seeing a taxi stand at Paestum. Arranging for a driver to meet you would be a better option.

You can almost certainly call a taxi; here is one site reportedly with a 24-hour phone number.

Those dairy snacks at Vannulo are very tasty!

I know you've been, but here is my little report on my visit:
