A9 · A2 Milan – Mendrisio – LuganoAirportsPossible stops Frequently Asked Questions## FoxTown Day Trip from Milan — FAQ How far is FoxTown from Milan? About 60 km. By car it takes around an hour on the A9 motorway through Como and the border at Chiasso, a little more at rush hour or on busy weekends. Lugano is about 20 minutes further north. How much does a private FoxTown day trip from Milan cost? From €600 per car with a Mercedes E-Class (up to 2 passengers) and from €680 with a V-Class (up to 6), for 8 hours with 150 km included. Weekends are +20%, major holidays +50%, extra hours €75 or €85. Do we need a passport? Yes. FoxTown is in Switzerland, so every passenger needs a passport or an ID card valid for travel. Switzerland is in the Schengen area, but customs checks at the border are possible, especially on goods. Can we get the Swiss VAT back, and what about Italian customs? Visitors who live outside Switzerland can ask the stores for a tax-free form on larger purchases (the minimum spend is around CHF 300) and have it stamped at Swiss customs when leaving. Coming back into Italy, EU duty-free allowances apply: for travellers arriving by land the limit is €300 per adult, and goods above it should be declared. Rules change, so check them before you shop. Is FoxTown open every day? Almost. It is open every day including public holidays, except 1 January, Easter Sunday, 1 August, and 25 and 26 December. Weekends are the busiest days; a weekday visit is calmer. Is a guide included? No. Your driver is not a licensed tour guide or personal shopper, but after years on this road can recommend the best stops, places and restaurants in Lugano and Como and give practical tips. A licensed local guide can be booked on request. ### FoxTown by private car or by train? From Milan you can take a train to Mendrisio and walk or take a bus to the outlet, but the return trip with shopping bags is not much fun, and the border adds time. With a private car you leave from your hotel, your purchases stay in the boot all day, and Lugano or Como can be added without any timetable. ### What to know about shopping at FoxTown The currency in Switzerland is the Swiss franc, and cards are widely accepted. Keep receipts together: you may need them at Swiss customs for a VAT refund and at Italian customs on the way back. Many travellers combine FoxTown with Lugano, a lake city with an elegant waterfront and its own shopping street, so the day is not only about the outlet. ### How much is a FoxTown day trip? MilanobyCar charges a fixed price per car: from €600 for two passengers in a Mercedes E-Class and from €680 for up to six in a V-Class, for 8 hours including driver, fuel, tolls and parking. The exact price for your date appears in the booking form.
