On foot, city-side berths connect efficiently to the historic centre, waterfront promenade and main shopping streets. This is the lowest-risk independent option when your call is short or you prefer urban exploring.
Taxis bridge the gap when berths are less central or when you need a one-way transfer to a meeting point. Agree destinations and approximate fares before departing; keep the return buffer in mind on regional days.
Trains from Salerno station link to the wider Campania network. Independent Pompeii or Herculaneum days are possible for confident travellers who understand Italian rail timing and accept missed-connection risk.
Ferries and organised excursions handle Amalfi Coast access differently — ferries may suit some schedules; road excursions remain the default. Paestum and Vesuvius routes are almost always road-based on cruise days.
Highlights
- Walking suits city berths and city-focused days
- Taxis for less central berths and one-off transfers
- Trains possible for independent archaeology days

Tips
- Identify Salerno station on a map before choosing a rail day
