Milan Malpensa → Lake Garda: key facts

Getting from Milan Malpensa Airport (MXP) to Lake Garda takes about 2h 5min by car on an empty road (2h 5min – 2h 40min in heavy traffic) over 172 km via A4 and A8. Our private transfer costs €420 for a car with 1–3 passengers or €510 for a van with 4–8 — the vehicle price you see is the price you pay at booking.

On arrival: The driver waits in the arrivals hall of the terminal your flight lands at (Terminal 1 or Terminal 2), after the baggage reclaim, holding a sign with your name. If the flight is late, the driver adjusts to the real landing time; 60 minutes of waiting are included and help with the luggage is part of the service.

Lake Garda is Italy's largest lake, shared between Lombardy, Veneto and Trentino, with towns such as Sirmione, Desenzano and Peschiera on the southern shore. The drive from Malpensa uses the A4 motorway east through Milan and Brescia, exiting at Sirmione or Desenzano. Weekend and August traffic on the A4 is heavy, and the Gardesana road around the lake is slow. The medieval centre of Sirmione is a ZTL, open only to residents and guests with access.

On the southern shore, Sirmione occupies a narrow peninsula with the Scaliger Castle at its entrance and the Roman ruins known as the Grotte di Catullo at the tip. Desenzano has a harbour and a square, Piazza Malvezzi, beside the lake, while Peschiera is a fortified town with Venetian walls listed by UNESCO. The theme park Gardaland is near Peschiera and opens from spring to autumn. Boats connect the towns from spring, and the lake is busiest in July and August.

Public transport instead: Trenitalia train Malpensa Express + Regionale Veloce from Malpensa Aeroporto (change at Milano Centrale) to Desenzano del Garda / Peschiera del Garda — about 2h 10min – 2h 40min, regular, 1 change.
