Answer 3

There are a couple of options without renting a car. Either way, you want to take the shuttle bus from Treviso airport to the Mestre train station. The bus goes on into Venice, but if you catch a train there, you'll have to go through the Mestre station anyway.

From Mestre take a train to Verona and get the bus to Malcesine. The bus station is just outside the exit from the train station. The bus is line 62-64.

Another option is to take the train to Descenzano (two stops further than Verona), walk down the hill to the lake, and catch a boat to Malcesine.

You could also go to Verona and catch a train from there to Rovereto, transfer to a bus to Torbole, and change there for a bus to Malcesine, but that's more complicated.

Malcesine is one of my favorite places on the lake, have a great time!
