Private transfer or shared shuttle?
Brides-les-Bains is about 170 km from Lyon airport, in the Tarentaise valley. For a three-week spa stay with luggage, or a ski week with the family, the train followed by a bus quickly becomes complicated. With a private transfer:
- The price is fixed when you book, whatever the journey time
- Your flight is tracked and your driver waits at arrivals with a name sign
- The van carries up to 8 skiers with all their equipment
- You travel directly, with your own group, to your door
The journey from Lyon to Brides-les-Bains
From Lyon Saint-Exupéry, the route follows the motorway towards Chambéry and Albertville, then the Tarentaise valley to Moûtiers. Brides-les-Bains lies just after, in the valley leading up to Méribel, at about 600 metres. Allow 2 hours to 2 hours 15. At this low altitude, the road is less exposed to snow than those to high resorts.
Brides-les-Bains, the Alps’ spa town
Known for its spa treatments, Brides-les-Bains welcomes guests all year round. In winter, the Olympe gondola links the town directly to the Méribel slopes and the 3 Valleys. We drop you at your hotel, your residence or the spa.
- Skis and boots included
- Child seat €5
- Free booster seat
- Water and Wi-Fi on board

Families, groups and late arrivals

For larger groups and ski clubs, we coordinate several vehicles travelling together, with a single confirmation. Many flights land in Lyon in the evening: we operate 24/7, so your transfer is guaranteed even late at night, and pets travel free of charge. Child seats cost €5 and booster seats are free.
