Contact us to arrange the best payment option for the service. We accept the following payment methods: cash, bank transfer and credit card.

DO YOU NEED AN INVOICE OR A RECEIPT?

We can issue both invoices and receipts. We work reliably and professionally, and all our services comply with the current legislation on private driver and taxi hire. Unlike taxi services, which are not required by law to issue any kind of receipt, private chauffeur companies are legally obliged to issue proper documentation.

HOW AND WHEN TO PAY THE DRIVER?

It is possible for you to pay a private car or minivan driver in cash. We also accept all credit cards, as well as bank transfers. When preparing your free quote, we can select the best payment method and offers for you, according to the type of service required.

CAN I CANCEL THE SERVICE?

For any changes that cannot be accommodated (such as departure time, destination, or number of passengers) or cancellations made between 7 days and 72 hours before the start of the service, a 50% refund of the total amount will be issued. For changes or cancellations made less than 72 hours before the service begins, no refund will be provided.

TAX DEDUCTIONS

When using one of Como Driver Services’ private chauffeurs, you may deduct the cost of the service in your personal or company tax declaration, if your tax system allows it. Upon payment, our driver will issue a receipt or an invoice, that you can then use for your tax deduction. Please check with your accountant to learn more about tax deductions for private transfers.

COMMUNICATION AND WAITING TIMES

All our drivers are native Italian speakers, but they also speak good English, so chatting and getting around won’t be a problem. Your driver will take you wherever you need to go and wait for you for the whole duration of your booking. They’re there to help with anything you need and to take you anywhere around Lake Como.

PRIVATE DRIVER SERVICE IN LUGANO

Como Driver Services is based in the province of Como, and our main focus is to serve international customers who travel here either for work or pleasure. We work in all the nearest towns, both in Italy and in Switzerland. Lugano, with its luxury boutiques, colonnades and cafés overlooking Piazza della Riforma, is especially popular with our customers.

The lakefront is the perfect spot to enjoy Lugano’s more relaxed and romantic atmosphere, thanks to the beautifully kept gardens and stunning views of the surrounding mountains. Lovers of the outdoors can reach Monte Bré or Monte San Salvatore to admire spectacular views of the lake and the Alps. Lugano has plenty of luxury hotels such as the Splendide Royal Hotel or the Grand Hotel Villa Castagnola, but there are also more affordable options, like the many B&Bs and holiday rentals nestled in the old centre.

Lugano is very well connected thanks to its train station, where high-speed trains regularly depart for Zurich, Milan and other European destinations. If you are travelling by car, there are a few paid car parks but the rush hour traffic makes it difficult to get around and to find a free space – our private driver service helps you to avoid these issues when visiting Lugano.

Thanks to our private driver service, you can travel safely, with professional drivers who will be more than happy to recommend the best places to visit during your stay. We also organise transfers and private chauffeur services in the rest of Canton Ticino – please contact us for a free quote.
