Lugano Transfer · between Switzerland and Italy

We're a Swiss company based in Ticino, so Lugano is home for our chauffeur service. We cross the border several times a week and know the crossings, the timings and the traffic. You think about the journey and we'll take care of the border: all you need is a valid travel document.

Lugano–Malpensa is the journey we're asked for most, about an hour: early flights out, evening returns. Coming back, your private driver is waiting when you land, with fifty minutes of waiting time included from touchdown. The quote comes to you in writing, in francs and in euros, and that is the price you pay.

We cover the whole of Ticino, from Paradiso and Melide to Mendrisio and the Malcantone, and we link Lugano with Milan, Como, Stresa, Verbania and Lake Maggiore, as well as Zurich Airport when the flight leaves from there. If plans change, cancellation is free up to 48 hours before departure.
