Can it be done? I can't work out how to arrange a transfer independently. Any suggestions?
Thanks! Liam

Bergamo is the usual airport for Livigno, but it's a long way.
I don't think there are any scheduled bus services, as it's so remote.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

That would be WITH a car then
Actually, car hire at Bergamo is very cheap in comparison to other airports. Try easyautos.com (not easyjet car hire) they are very good.

Thanks everyone for your advice. Yes I'd love a rental car, but I can't drive! L

lrx28, SkiHoppa http://ski.resorthoppa.com/ is the place to try. There is a bus but you'll need to wait for next year's schedule to be posted. Some of the TO's used to take transfer bus bookings, you'll need to contact those TOs directly. And lastly, going back a few years, it used to be possible (but very risky) to bung the transfer rep a wedge to put you on a bus with their crowd . . . but it's not something I'd recommend you count on.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Monarch fly into Friedrichafen in S Germany and have rentals in Livigno, (200km) that's what I am doing.
May be worth a look and try and scrounge a transfer off them - I went to St Anton with them last year via Friedrichafen and the bus was half empty (½ term week !)
Getting this year's holiday sorted involved quite a bit of e-mail ping pong and they were spot on.
Zurich 195km
Milan 220 km
