Milan Malpensa (MXP) do Florence

A long-distance transfer from MXP to Florence via the A1 (Autostrada del Sole) through Bologna. It is close to 4 hours of driving, but for guests with heavy luggage, families with children or travellers with a tight schedule it is often more practical than a domestic connecting flight. The driver plans a break on the Apennine stretch between Bologna and Florence, where the route passes through mountain tunnels.

Milan Malpensa (MXP) do Lugano (Switzerland)

Lugano in the canton of Ticino is closer to MXP than central Milan and is one of the most frequently booked international destinations from this airport. The route takes the A8 to Varese, then the E35 to the border crossing at Chiasso/Brogeda. Switzerland is not in the EU but is in the Schengen Area — passport checks are rare, though we factor in a buffer for possible customs inspection. In Lugano we serve lakeside hotels, central residences and addresses in surrounding municipalities (Paradiso, Melide, Morcote).

Milan Malpensa (MXP) do Venice

Milan Malpensa (MXP) do Genoa

The route from MXP to Genoa runs via the A26 (Voltri) and A7 (dei Giovi) motorways through the Apennine pass. It is a mountainous road with numerous tunnels and viaducts — the driver knows the specifics of the route, especially the descent into Genoa where sudden weather changes and tunnel fog can affect visibility. Genoa stretches along the coast — a hotel at the old port (Porto Antico) and a hotel in Nervi are entirely different destinations.

Milan Malpensa (MXP) do Stresa / Lake Maggiore

Stresa also serves as a base for reaching Verbania, Baveno and the ferry crossing to the islands.
