Getting Around Modena
If your programme in Modena includes the motor industry, plan for Maranello, 17 km south of the centre, usually 25–35 minutes by car. Ferrari runs two museums: the Museo Ferrari in Maranello and the Museo Enzo Ferrari in Modena. For a day of visits in Modena and Maranello, booked by the hour, one chauffeur and one vehicle stay with you for the time you reserve.
Modena station is on Piazza Dante, about 1.5 km from Piazza Grande. Frecciarossa and Italo high-speed trains also stop at Reggio Emilia AV Mediopadana, 31 km from Modena, usually 35–45 minutes by car. Check which of the two stations your ticket shows. Add the train and its arrival time to the booking, and the car is scheduled for that arrival.
The historic centre is a ZTL. Cameras at its entry points record every vehicle going in and out, 24 hours a day. Send the full address with your booking; we will then let you know the closest point a car can reach.
Airport Transfers in Modena
Modena has no airport of its own. Bologna Airport is the nearest, 40 km away on the A1, usually 40–55 minutes by car. Verona Airport is 103 km north on the A22, 1 hour 20 minutes to 1 hour 50 minutes, and Milan Linate 173 km on the A1, 2 hours to 2 hours 40 minutes. Your airline and route decide the airport; book the car to the one on your ticket.
Most of each journey is motorway, so the time depends mainly on the A1 around Bologna and on the A22 towards Verona. Journey times vary with traffic and weather.
For arrivals, your chauffeur checks the flight status and times the pickup to when you actually land, and your booking confirmation shows where to meet the chauffeur. For a departure from Modena, what counts is the length of the drive, not the time on the clock: 40–55 minutes to Bologna Airport, 1 hour 20 minutes to 1 hour 50 minutes to Verona, 2 hours to 2 hours 40 minutes to Linate, longer in heavy traffic. You set the pickup time yourself, and the confirmation shows it.
Long-Distance & Multi-City Travel from Modena
Modena sits on the A1 between Bologna and Milan, so a business trip here can link several cities. Parma is 60 km away, Verona 104 km on the A22, Florence 135 km and Milan 173 km. On the road, count on 1 hour 20 minutes to 1 hour 50 minutes to Verona, 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours 20 minutes to Florence and 2 hours to 2 hours 40 minutes to Milan.
When a visit to Maranello is followed by meetings in Milan the next morning, the car can take you from your hotel in Modena to your hotel in Milan in one booking, and your luggage stays in the same vehicle. For a trip that continues south, Florence is reached over the Apennines on the A1, and the chauffeur who collects you in Modena drives you all the way to the address in Florence.
Ferrara is 87 km away via the A1 and the A13, 1 hour 10 minutes to 1 hour 35 minutes. For a meeting in Ferrara, book a Round-Trip and set the time back to Modena when you reserve.
When the flight home is from Florence Airport, the car goes straight to the terminal: 126 km on the A1, 1 hour 35 minutes to 2 hours 10 minutes. Give the flight when you book.
Groups & Congress Travel in Modena
Group programmes in Modena can centre on the motor industry. When, for example, a club or a company team visits the Ferrari museums, the Museo Enzo Ferrari offers guided and private visits for groups, and the second museum is in Maranello, 17 km away. Plan the transfer between the two as part of the same day.
When you book for other people, all their transfers can be kept in one account, each with its own booking and confirmation; when a team flies into Bologna and Verona on different flights, every arrival gets a transfer of its own. A Sprinter van carries up to 12 people with their bags, and bigger groups go by coach, with up to 56 seats; we choose the vehicle to fit the passengers and the luggage.
Reserve group dates well ahead: local vehicles and drivers are booked up early. If your plans go beyond a standard booking, write to support with the dates, addresses, number of passengers, flights and luggage, and the team will arrange it.
