transportation from Stresa to Milan
Hi, can anyone recommend a good, reliable transportation company to transfer 5 people and bags from Stresa to the airport in Milan? I'm also looking for a transfer company for the start of our trip......from airport in Rome to Rome hotel. Thanks!

I'm bringing missmissy's post to the top again, in the hopes (selfishly) that more posters can contribute to her question.
My husband and I will also be traveling from Stresa to Malpensa in May, and would appreciate references for reliable transportation.

06.30 - 09.30 - 13.30 - 16.30 - 19.30
Journey time: 50 mins.
Must be booked 24 hrs in advance.

Hi Missy, for you transportation from Stresa to Milan airport I suggest to use a car rental with driver, is going to be cheaper than a taxi and with a more professional service.
I will personally recommend Majoli, is very reliable, friendy and has a Mercedes Viano that can easily accomodate the 5 people, you can find information at:

Hope this helps and wish you a nice trip.

missmissy,
I noticed this is the first, and only, posting by mark289 recommending the "car-rental with driver company."
Have you made e-mail contact with the company he recommended and, if you did, have you received a quote from them?
I will be departing Stresa on May 13th in the morning for Malpensa so I am more than casually curious about the rates this company charges.
If you would be so kind as to post a quote if you receive one, I would be very appreciative.

Hi there 
Yes, I did email them, but have not received a response. I also contacted our hotel and inquired and they said they forwarded my email to some transportation company they use for their guests. I haven't heard from them yet either. I'll be away this weekend, but will be following up on this early next week. I'll for sure post any info for you, at well. Take care Melissa

I'm bumping this Q back up. Has anyone else had luck receiving a reply from a transportation company???? I'm also STILL emailing a few of the major companies that everyone says are great in Rome......and have not received a reply. ODD. We still have time, so I guess I'll just worry with this when we're about 3 weeks out.

missmissy,
I did receive a reply from Majoli, and the original price quoted was 95 euro. I replied and said that the price was too high. This is the second response I received:
"I understand that the change of the dollar with euro is not favorable,
but my price is already good for the service. But for your sympathy I make a special price of 90 euro. Make me to
know if it goes, many thanks. Sincerrilly your"

I just felt the cost was too high, and contacted the concierge at the Hotel Astoria. They can get a driver for the two of us for 80 euro. I'm going with the lower price.

I don't blame you, I think 95 or 90 Euros is too high. We're staying at the Regina Palace in Stresa. I emailed them and they said they forwarded my request to a company they use ( I'm forgetting the name now ) and I emailed them myself twice. I've heard nothing. I'm going to just wait till it gets a tad closer. I've also emailed two of the rome transfer companies that everyone recommends and haven't heard back from one. The other one wanted me to pay a deposit with Paypal and that seems odd to me. So, I'm not going with them. The ONLY transporation I've managed to secure is for our quick stay in Paris. I figure in Rome.....worst case we get in the taxi line and ask for a van and hope we don't get ripped off. haha Thanks for sharing your info! Melissa

missmissy,
Actually, we wouldn't have had any problem taking the bus as Steve_James suggested, especially when you consider the price for a (relatively) short bus ride, but the departure times from Stresa aren't good for us...8:30 a.m. would have been perfect. But, when is anything perfect when you are traveling?
BTW, what dates will you be in Stresa? Our dates are May 7 - May 12, and we are keeping our fingers crossed for good weather.
Enjoy your trip.
