From Geneva airport to Tignes in about three hours. A private chauffeur, a car equipped for the high mountains and a rate fixed before you travel.
Tignes is one of the highest resorts in the Alps, with Tignes le Lac at 2,100 metres and skiing up to the Grande Motte glacier. From Geneva airport it is about 205 kilometres, three hours on a clear day, by Annecy, Albertville and Bourg-Saint-Maurice.
Together with Val d'Isère it forms the Espace Killy. The last part of the drive climbs above Bourg-Saint-Maurice and past the Chevril dam, a road where winter equipment and an experienced driver make the difference on snowy days.
Motorway to Albertville, the Tarentaise valley, then the climb past the Chevril dam.
From the airport past Annecy to Albertville, about an hour and a quarter of motorway.
Through Moûtiers to Bourg-Saint-Maurice, the valley road that slows on in-season Saturdays.
Above Bourg, through Sainte-Foy and past the Chevril dam to Tignes les Brévières, Le Lac or Val Claret.

A name board on the Swiss or French side of the airport, as agreed.

Dropped at your chalet or hotel in Le Lac, Val Claret, Le Lavachet or Les Brévières.
Tignes is spread across several levels: Les Brévières at 1,550 metres, Tignes 1800, then Le Lac, Le Lavachet and Val Claret above 2,000 metres. We need the exact village to plan the time and the drop-off.
From November to the end of March, the French mountain law requires four 3PMSF winter tyres or chains in the boot in the listed communes of Haute-Savoie and Savoie, with a 135 euro fine otherwise. Our cars are equipped for the whole season.

A Geneva to Tignes transfer with My Private Service is a private car for your party only, a chauffeur waiting in the arrivals hall, on the Swiss or the French side as you prefer with your name, and a rate fixed in writing before you travel. Tignes is one of the longest Geneva ski transfers, about three hours via Annecy, Albertville and Bourg-Saint-Maurice, then the climb past the Chevril dam to Le Lac or Val Claret.
A taxi from Geneva airport to Tignes runs on the meter and is rarely equipped for the mountain. Shared coach and shuttle transfers leave on a timetable, stop at other resorts and wait for other flights. The train from Geneva reaches Bourg-Saint-Maurice, 30 kilometres and 700 metres of climb below the resort, so a car is needed anyway. A private airport transfer leaves when you land and drops you at the door, which on a Saturday in February makes the difference.
For a family or a group of friends, the Mercedes V-Class takes seven passengers with skis and luggage; larger groups travel in two or three vehicles leaving together. The same private ski transfer serves the hotels, the chalets and Tignes le Lac, Val Claret, Le Lavachet, Tignes 1800 and Les Brévières.
We run the Tignes to Geneva transfer in both directions. For the return, your chauffeur sets the pick-up time from the road conditions and your flight, so the transfer time from Tignes to Geneva airport is never a gamble. Ask for a return quote and both legs are confirmed together.
