Travelling from Bergamo Airport to Lugano, Switzerland

Lugano lies in the Swiss canton of Ticino, close to the Italian border and on the shore of Lake Lugano. Its combination of lakeside hotels, business activity and surrounding residential areas makes it a frequent destination for both leisure and corporate travellers arriving through airports in northern Italy.
