Crystal-clear, emerald-green water, smooth granite boulders and the famous double-arched stone bridge Ponte dei Salti at Lavertezzo: the Verzasca Valley is one of the most photogenic corners of Italian-speaking Ticino. Stretching about 25 kilometres north of Lake Maggiore, it strings together rustic stone villages, old rustici and natural swimming pools — a slice of the south that feels like Italy yet sits firmly in Switzerland. You can walk a stretch of the riverside Sentierone trail or simply take in the view from the bridge.
The catch: from Zurich it is a solid two-and-a-half to three hours over the Gotthard, followed by narrow, steep mountain roads into the valley — and on a busy weekend, parking in tiny Lavertezzo is nearly impossible. That is exactly what we remove. In the morning you settle into your Mercedes V-Class, relax, and arrive at the bridge directly — no traffic, no parking hunt, no public-transport connections.
SWIVON is your private chauffeur service at a fixed price. No one in your party has to drive, so an apéro along the way is no problem at all. We bring you there and take you home again. Any entrances, food or a boat trip on the lake you pay locally — we are your private driver, not a tour agency.
