Looking for a Milan to FoxTown Outlet transfer? Here you can compare every way to make the trip by travel time, price and comfort.
FoxTown is in the Swiss town of Mendrisio, about 60 km from Milan. The trip is short, but it is another country, so bring your documents and check the rules for bringing purchases back.
How Long It Takes and What You Need at the Border
By car the trip takes around 1 hour. Switzerland is in the Schengen Area but not the EU, so customs checks are possible at the border. Bring your passport and any visa you need.
Transportation: What to Choose?
Trains from Milan take roughly 1–1.3 hours. There is also a Mendrisio San Martino stop near the outlet; check the current stop and walking route before you travel.
Swiss motorways require a vignette: CHF 40 for the whole year, with no short-term option. Check in advance that your rental company allows travel to Switzerland.
Convenient for shopping: the driver collects you from your door, and your purchases go in the trunk. An economy car starts from €131 per vehicle, one way. It is best to arrange waiting and a return trip when you book.
- Fixed price agreed in advance
- Pickup at your address
- Choice of vehicle, from Economy to V-Class
- No changes and no hauling luggage
How to Plan Your FoxTown Trip
Check opening hours on the official website before you go. Prices in Switzerland are usually in francs, so check the exchange rate and card terms in advance. Ask at the outlet whether you qualify for a tax refund.
Switzerland is outside the EU customs union, so import limits apply when you return with purchases. Check the rules in advance, especially for expensive watches or bags. EU and EFTA citizens need only a passport or ID, and others should check Schengen requirements.
How to Choose Transport to FoxTown
The train suits you if you are traveling light and plan to buy a little: the journey takes about an hour, and you then need to walk to the outlet. Returning with large bags is less convenient, so it helps to check return train times in advance.
A car is good value for a group, since the price covers the whole vehicle. Your purchases also stay in the trunk, and your return time depends only on you if you have arranged waiting in advance. Customs checks are possible at the border, so keep receipts for expensive items handy.
