Three times a day there is a direct bus from Malpensa
airport to Como:
Dep 8:30 & Arrive 9:42
Dep 13:00 & Arrive 14:12

Lake Como can also be approached from Switzerland through
San Bernadino or Splugenplass and then along the lake
roads, or can be approached through Chiasso, after going
through the San Gotthard tunnel. This Swiss border is
only a couple of miles from Como city.
We suggest you study the map carefully, the route is
very simple and Como city is just before the Swiss border.
There are tolls however and a few Euros may be necessary
to navigate them. Italian drivers are famous for their
casual approach, this combined with the narrow dual
carriageways and link roads means care needs taking
at all times.
