A private Como to Lugano transfer is the most comfortable, door-to-door way to make this international journey. Instead of juggling trains, connections and luggage across the border, a professional English-speaking chauffeur collects you at your chosen address and drives you the whole way — a fixed-price, ~40 min ride across roughly ~35 km.

Como to Lugano is a short lake-to-lake hop across the Swiss border into Ticino. The crossing at Chiasso is quick, making it an easy day-trip or onward-connection transfer.

Border Crossing Information

Switzerland is part of the Schengen Area, so there are normally no passport checks at the border — but carry a valid passport or national ID, as spot checks can happen.

Switzerland is outside the EU customs union, so occasional customs checks apply; simply declare any goods above the duty-free allowance.

Swiss motorways use an annual vignette (motorway sticker) rather than toll booths. Our vehicles already carry a valid vignette, so there is nothing for you to buy or arrange. Our drivers make this route regularly and handle the crossing and any formalities so you can simply relax.
