The journey from Lyon to Avoriaz

Avoriaz and its ski area
Avoriaz is known for its wooden architecture that follows the cliff and for its ski-in, ski-out access. It is part of the Portes du Soleil, linked to Morzine, Châtel and the Swiss resorts.
Skis, luggage and families
Our vans carry up to 8 passengers with their skis and suitcases. For larger groups, several vehicles travel together.

Beyond skiing
As a pedestrian resort, Avoriaz is ideal for families: you get around on skis, by sleigh or on foot. Its Aquariaz water park rounds off the days on the slopes.
Holiday Saturdays and late arrivals
On school-holiday Saturdays, Alpine roads are very busy, especially near the resorts. We plan your departure accordingly and your chauffeur takes the smoothest route. Landing late in the evening? Your chauffeur waits whatever the time, and you reach Avoriaz without driving at night on a snowy road.
The return to Lyon and the airport
For the return, your chauffeur picks you up at your chalet or hotel in Avoriaz. We set the departure time based on your flight or train, with a margin for Saturday traffic. You can book the outbound and return together, with a fixed price for each journey.
