Private transfer or shared shuttle?

The 3 Valleys are about 180 to 200 km from Lyon airport. Shared shuttles stop in several resorts, and a metered taxi can become very expensive on a busy Saturday. With a private transfer:

  • A fixed price per vehicle, skis and tolls included
  • Flight tracking and 70 minutes of waiting included
  • A van for up to 8 skiers with all their equipment
  • Direct to your door, with no stops for other passengers

Three valleys, one ski area

From Lyon Saint-Exupéry, the route follows the motorway towards Chambéry and Albertville, then the Tarentaise valley to Moûtiers, the gateway to the 3 Valleys. From there, three roads climb to the three valleys: one to Courchevel and La Tania, one to Brides-les-Bains and Méribel, and one through the Belleville valley to Les Menuires and Val Thorens. Allow 2 to 3 hours depending on your resort.

About Transfert-Lyon

Transfert-Lyon is a private driver company based in Lyon and a brand of La Conciergerie I Carré, a French passenger transport group. Our drivers hold a professional VTC licence, and every booking is confirmed in writing, as required by French regulations.

Choosing your 3 Valleys resort

Courchevel is famous for its luxury hotels and chalets, from Courchevel 1850 to Le Praz. Méribel, in the centre of the ski area, is popular with British skiers for its chalets and lively atmosphere. Val Thorens, at 2,300 metres, is the highest resort in Europe and guarantees snow. Les Menuires offers ski-in ski-out accommodation at more affordable prices. La Tania is a quiet forest village between Courchevel and Méribel, and Brides-les-Bains, a spa town linked to Méribel by gondola, is the most affordable base. Whatever your choice, we drive you to the door.

Late arrivals and early departures

Many flights land in Lyon in the evening, and the first ski day starts early. We operate 24/7, so your transfer is guaranteed even late at night. For the return, we calculate your departure time from your resort based on your flight, with a comfortable margin for the drive down the valley on busy Saturdays.
