About us
Three
generations
on the
same road
From a livestock farmer in Dossena who sold his cattle to buy a coach, to today's fourth generation.
In the 1950s, Giovanbattista Zani (son of Evaristo), a native of Dossena, sold his livestock to take his first steps into the passenger transport business.
That gamble gave rise to Autoservizi f.lli Zani s.n.c. in 1961, by which time it already had six coaches for hire: a Fiat 626, two Fiat 642s, a Fiat 680, a Visconteo and a Tigre OM.
When the founder died, the company passed to his sons Evaristo, Rocco, Felice and Giacomo, who kept expanding the business through hard work until it had a large fleet of its own.
In the 1990s the Zani group split, and Giacomo took over Autoservizi Monti.
Today, Autoservizi Monti Tours s.r.l. is led by his children—Alessandro, Evaristo, Simone, and Giovanna—who follow in the footsteps of their father and grandfather with passion, dedication, and an entrepreneurial spirit.
What this means today
It means the drivers have been with us for years and know the routes inside out. It means Grandfather's vintage bus is still in the fleet and is used for weddings. And it means the person answering the phone belongs to the same family that has run the company for 75 years.
