Milan to Geneva with a private driver
Take your trip into your own hands with a private driver from Daytrip. You can plan your departure time on your schedule and see the castles and fortified towns hidden among the mountains.
Your Daytrip driver will pick you up from your address in Milan and help with your luggage. While someone else worries about driving the mountainous roads, you can focus on enjoying your trip.
Driving this route takes about half the time of a train or bus. Daytrip can get you to Geneva in under 4 hours, but why rush? You can access places like Fenis Castle and Fort Bard much more easily by car than by public transit, so spend your vacation exploring castles instead of waiting on a regional bus.
After all your sightseeing stops, you’ll be dropped off safely at your address in Geneva. With no rental car to return, you and your family can begin experiencing Geneva right away. Secure a seat in a comfortable sedan for $263 (€245).
