Private chauffeur in Lugano

Italian-speaking Switzerland, between lake and palm trees, by private chauffeur

Lugano is Switzerland's Italian-speaking metropolis and its third financial centre, after Zurich and Geneva. Set on the shores of Lake Lugano (Ceresio), between Monte San Salvatore and Monte Brè, it offers a setting found nowhere else in Switzerland: palm trees, lively piazzas and an Italian way of living, at the crossroads of Ticino, Lombardy and Graubünden.

Swiss Limo serves Lugano from Agno airport (LUG), Milan Malpensa (MXP) and Zurich via the Gotthard tunnel. Our chauffeurs know the Centro banking district as well as the lakeside roads to Ascona, Locarno or St. Moritz via the Maloja Pass (see also /destinations/st-moritz), for business and leisure clients alike.

Why a chauffeur — Lugano

Gateway to Ticino

Lugano is the natural launch point for Ascona, Locarno and Morcote: a chauffeur who knows these lakeside roads saves valuable time.

A southern financial centre

Private banks, wealth managers and Italian-Swiss corporate headquarters expect punctuality and discretion, all the way to the Palazzo dei Congressi.

Two borders within reach

Milan and Lake Como are just over an hour's drive away: ideal for a shopping trip or an international flight connection.
