Van, up to 8 passengers

Private transfer or shared shuttle?
Méribel is about 180 km from Lyon airport, the last part on a mountain road. Shared shuttles make several stops in the valley, and a metered taxi can become very expensive on a busy Saturday. 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 Méribel
From Lyon Saint-Exupéry, the route follows the motorway towards Chambéry and Albertville, then the Tarentaise valley to Moûtiers. The road then climbs past the spa town of Brides-les-Bains to Méribel, at around 1,450 metres, and on to Méribel-Mottaret. Allow 2 hours 15 to 2 hours 45. On Saturdays in February, we suggest a pick-up time that takes the traffic into account.
Méribel and Méribel-Mottaret
Méribel stretches from the village of Les Allues to Méribel centre, Méribel Village and, higher up, Méribel-Mottaret. Give us the exact address of your chalet or hotel: your driver drops you at the door and helps you unload. Some chalets are on narrow lanes: we find the closest safe drop-off point.
- Skis and boots included
- Child seat €5
- Free booster seat
- Water and Wi-Fi on board
The heart of the 3 Valleys
Méribel is linked by the slopes to Courchevel, Val Thorens and Les Menuires, forming the largest linked ski area in the world. If your group is split between several resorts, we also arrange transfers between them, at a fixed price. See our Lyon to Courchevel transfer and Lyon to Val Thorens transfer.
Families, groups and late arrivals
A sedan suits 4 people with reasonable luggage; the van takes up to 8 passengers and 8 bags, with room for skis and pushchairs. 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.
Peak season tips
- Book as soon as your flights are confirmed: February Saturdays fill up fast
- A 20% surcharge applies on February Saturdays and over Christmas and New Year, always shown when you book
- For the return, allow plenty of time before your flight
- Book both ways in one request
