One of the most common questions we receive through our customer support service is: how do I get from Trapani Airport to San Vito Lo Capo?
San Vito Lo Capo is located about 60 km from Trapani–Birgi Airport (Vincenzo Florio) and is accessible by various means. This updated guide presents the 4 main options to reach your destination, with pros, cons, and useful links for booking and further info.
First tip: if you haven’t chosen where to stay yet, check out our list of B&Bs in San Vito Lo Capo.
There are 7 car rental companies operating at Trapani Airport. We’ve covered this in detail in this article.
You can compare prices and availability using our car rental comparison tool.
Pros: full freedom of movement, ideal for exploring the surrounding area.
Cons: make sure to check reviews of the rental companies; also consider parking costs in San Vito Lo Capo.
Taxi stands are located immediately to the right as you exit the airport. However, we generally do not recommend this option due to the high cost.
Average taxi fares are around €1.50 per km. Given the 60 km distance, the total cost can exceed €90 one way.
You can book a private transfer through the companies advertised on our site (check the banners on the right column). Prices vary depending on the number of passengers.
On average: for a group of 6–8 people, the cost is about €20 per person.
This is a comfortable option for families or small groups, especially if arriving in the evening.
The AST bus company operates connections from Trapani Airport to the Trapani bus terminal, and from there to San Vito Lo Capo. During summer, a direct route may be available, but it’s not guaranteed every year.
Year-round route: Airport <-> Trapani and Trapani <-> San Vito Lo Capo.
Tickets: €4.90 from the airport to Trapani, and €4.60 from Trapani to San Vito Lo Capo. A round trip ticket costs €7.50.
For updated schedules, check the official AST website or visit our dedicated bus schedule page.
Bus connections are not always guaranteed, especially in the evening. If you're arriving late, you may need to spend the night in Trapani or consider other transport options.
We suggest renting a car, which offers the most flexibility. Public transport in the province is limited, and you might miss out on beautiful places worth visiting.
If you rent a car, consider booking a B&B or hotel with private parking to avoid paying for public spaces (blue lines).

There are also some more “adventurous” ways to reach San Vito Lo Capo from the airport – walking, biking, or even paragliding. But after all, this is a holiday, not a survival course.
