Private Driver
in Courchevel
Courchevel is a resort where the useful distances are vertical. A private driver kept for the stay means the evenings between 1850 and Le Praz, the dinners over in Méribel and the day down the valley stop depending on whether a taxi answers.
My Private Service provides a private chauffeur service in Courchevel, airport transfers from Geneva GVA, Lyon LYS and Chambéry CMF, executive car hire and VIP transportation available 24/7 across Courchevel and the French Alps.
Four villages,
one road between them
Courchevel is not one place but four, stacked up a single road from Le Praz at the bottom to 1850 at the top. In high season that road carries the whole resort's traffic, the chalet driveways are steep and often unmade, and an evening in Méribel means crossing the valley in the dark.
A car that knows the driveway
Keeping a driver in resort buys the evenings more than the days. The chauffeur knows which chalet approaches can be driven in fresh snow, waits outside dinner, and takes the group in two runs rather than leaving half of it behind.
- From four hours, with the same chauffeur through the stay where you want continuity
- Winter tyres from November and chains carried, with chauffeurs used to the Tarentaise
- Chalet approaches assessed in advance, since not all of them can be driven after a snowfall
- Unlimited stops inside the agreed area, across all four villages and over to Méribel
- Ski and boot luggage accounted for when the vehicle is assigned
Courchevel and the Three Valleys
The top villages, the hotels and the chalet roads above the main street.
The lower villages, and the road that connects all four.
Dinners and days across the Three Valleys, in the dark and often in snow.
Light aircraft arrivals when the weather allows, timed on the actual landing.
The valley railhead for the ski train from Paris or London.
The three airports at either end of the stay, with the departure timed against the road.
What is the minimum booking?
Four hours. For a single Geneva transfer the point to point rate is better value and we will say so.
Can the car reach my chalet?
Usually yes, and we check before the day. Some approaches in 1850 and above Moriond become impassable after heavy snow, in which case the chauffeur agrees a meeting point with the chalet staff.
Do you drive over to Méribel in the evening?
Yes, regularly. It is the most common evening run, and the chauffeur waits rather than being re-booked for the return.
Are the cars equipped for snow?
Yes. Winter tyres from November and chains carried through the season, with chauffeurs who drive the Tarentaise regularly.
Can the same driver stay for the week?
Yes, and most clients ask for it. By the second evening the driveway, the timings and the group are known.
Which vehicles are available?
Mercedes E-Class and S-Class, and V-Class when there are skis and boots as well as people. Four-wheel drive on request for the upper roads.
