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 Montgenèvre without driving at night on a snowy road.

For the return, your chauffeur picks you up at your chalet or hotel in Montgenèvre. 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.
