Bus schedule from Lugano to Menaggio and back
Shahed is planning a day trip from Lugano to Menaggio on Saturday, June 1st, and wants to confirm the bus schedule for public holidays. They believe the first bus leaves at 9:25 AM and the last one returns at 5:35 PM, and are seeking confirmation of their understanding.
- Double-check the schedule specific to June 1st, as it's not a public holiday; the last bus to Lugano departs at 5:35 PM.
- If you need information on ferry schedules for Lake Como, look for forums focused on Italian travel, as this forum is primarily for Switzerland.

I want to do a day trip from Lugano to Menaggio and back on Saturday, June 1st. Since it’s on Saturday, I believe I should be looking at the schedule for PUBLIC HOLIDAYS (FESTIVO ESTIVO). If my assumption is correct, the earliest bus from Lugano to Menaggio is at 9:25 AM and the last bus from Menaggio to Lugano is at 5:35 PM. Can someone please confirm my understanding? Thank you.

Hi Shahed,
The timetable you have found is for summer 2023. (See the note “AREA LAGO – ESTIVO 2023” at the bottom of each page.)
The relevant timetable for 1 June 2024 is here: Timetable Winter 2023/24 valid from 12/09/2023 to 08/06/2024

For my understanding of what the various abbreviations mean, please see this post from some years ago:
Saturdays are included in Fer6, unless the Saturday is a public holiday. Saturday 1 Jun 2024 is not a public holiday – but the following day, Sunday 2 Jun, is in fact a public holiday: Festa della Repubblica (Republic Day).
Hope this helps!

Alpenrose555: Thank you for the correct bus schedule link and explanation about Fer6. The schedule now makes total sense.
May I ask a related question about Mid Lake Como ferry schedule? I came across two schedule for passenger/car ferries but they only go out to May 26th. How can I get the schedules for June 1st and beyond?

Hi Shahed,
Our forum and website is geared towards travel within Switzerland. You’ll need to post your question elsewhere I am afraid. Perhaps there is an Italian equivalent – I am not sure.
Good luck.
Kind regards,
Yolanda
