Private transfer

Best for: Families, groups and anyone with ski bags

Hire car

Best for: Exploring several resorts during your stay

Driving 188 km into the mountains in winter means winter tyres, snow chains where required and paid parking in Courchevel. Worth it if you will use the car during the week.

Tips for this journey

  • Give your flight number and the number of ski or snowboard bags when you book. Passenger seats and luggage space are not the same thing.
  • Saturday is changeover day in most Alpine resorts, so roads and airports are at their busiest. A midweek or Sunday arrival is usually quicker.
  • Use your full accommodation address. Two chalets "in Courchevel" can be far apart, and some are only reachable on foot or by a local shuttle.
