How the shopping trip works
An outlet trip is an exercise in logistics. Hauling heavy shopping bags onto a crowded public bus ruins the luxury experience. We provide a seamless, secure, and private alternative.
Hotel Pickup in Milan
No need to navigate to Milano Centrale early in the morning. Your chauffeur collects you directly from your hotel or residence in a pristine Mercedes.
Secure Trunk Space
Your driver remains on standby in the VIP parking area. Drop off your heavy bags at the car midway through the day so you can continue shopping unburdened.
Flexible Departure
Unlike the shuttle bus which leaves at fixed times, you leave when you are ready. Finish early? We go back. Want to stay for dinner? We wait.
The Private Transport Advantage
Skip the Bus Queues
The standard shuttle buses are notorious for massive queues and overcrowding. A private driver guarantees luxury, privacy, and immediate departure.
Dedicated Trunk Space
Shop without limits. Knowing you have the spacious trunk of a Mercedes V-Class waiting for you changes how you approach the outlet.
Tax-Free Assistance
Our drivers understand the global shopper. We can advise you on the tax-free process and ensure you have your passport and documents ready.
Control Your Schedule
If you finish shopping in 4 hours, there is no need to wait for a 6 PM bus. If you want to stay until closing time, your driver waits for you.

Shopping Tour FAQs
How to get to Serravalle Outlet from Milan?
While shuttle buses depart from Milano Centrale, they operate on strict schedules and get very crowded. A private driver provides direct hotel pickup, guaranteed luggage space for your shopping bags, and allows you to leave whenever you are ready.
Do drivers wait for us while we shop at Serravalle?
Yes, our service operates on hourly disposal. Your chauffeur remains at the outlet, keeping your purchases completely secure in the trunk. You can even walk out mid-day, drop off heavy bags at the car, and go back in.
Can we visit both Serravalle and another city in one day?
Absolutely. Because you hire the vehicle on hourly disposal, you dictate the itinerary. Many clients choose to shop in the morning and stop for dinner in a nearby town, or even combine a half-day at the outlet with a transfer to Genoa or Portofino.
Do I need my passport for tax-free shopping?
Yes. If you reside outside the EU, you must bring your physical passport to claim the VAT refund (Detaxe) in the boutiques.
