A private transfer from Geneva Airport to Courchevel with Bycar is the optimal way to reach the ski resort. Travel time is between 2.5 and 3.5 hours (depending on traffic). The route length depends on the chosen road: 134 km (along Lake Annecy) or 179 km along the A41 and A43 motorways. The transfer price by car Economy class = 290€, Electric car = 340€, Business class = 450€. The price includes Wi-Fi, a child seat (upon request), drinking water, toll roads, parking and waiting time at the airport (1 hour after arrival). Payment can be made in advance or during the trip.
You will receive your driver's WhatsApp in advance. He will meet you at the airport with a sign, help you with your luggage and take you to the hotel door along the best route. We provide transfers to Courchevel 24/7. You can book a trip on the website, by email or WhatsApp.
There are two main routes from Geneva Airport to Courchevel. The first, along the shores of Lake Annecy (length = 134 km and takes 2.5 to 3.5 hours), is more scenic and enjoyable. The second route, along the A41 and A43 motorways, is approximately 179 km long and roughly the same travel time. Toll roads cost around 10-40 euros depending on the route and type of car.
Let's take a closer look at the first route to Courchevel. You begin your trip at Geneva Airport, then head south on the A1 Autobahn to the Swiss-French border. After driving about 11 kilometers, you cross the border and enter France. Sometimes there are checks of documents, personal belongings, and vehicles at the border. Traffic jams can also occur, especially in the morning or evening after work hours. This entire process can take 20-40 minutes; please keep this in mind to avoid missing your meeting or flight back. After the border, follow the signs to Annecy. Here, you'll enjoy exceptionally beautiful views of Lake Annecy and the surrounding countryside. You can choose the D1508, which runs along the left bank of the lake, or the D909A, which runs along the right bank (it's usually lighter during rush hour).
Next you will pass through the charming town of Albertville (you can stop and have a coffee there) and join the N90 highway. In about 30 minutes (26 km), you'll reach the next town, Moutiers.
In Moutiers, the serpentine road begins—several roads lead to various ski resorts. You need to go to the 3 Valleys, so take the D915, then the D91A. Courchevel has four stations at different altitudes. The first station is Courchevel 1300 (Le Praz), about 16 km from Moutiers. The second station is Courchevel 1550 (Village), another 2.5 km up. The next station is Courchevel 1650 (Moriond), another 2 km up. The highest station is Courchevel 1850, an additional 3 km up. These sections of the road run along a winding serpentine road, but snow is usually light and cleared fairly quickly, so the drive from Moutiers to Courchevel should take 40-50 minutes. However, in bad weather or with heavy traffic, the drive may take up to an hour longer, especially if your hotel is in Courchevel 1850.
The total driving distance from Geneva Airport to Courchevel, along Lake Annecy, is 134-141 km, depending on the altitude of the Courchevel station. The journey typically takes 2.5 to 3.5 hours, but during peak season, travel time can occasionally increase to 6-10 hours.
If you don't want to drive along Lake Annecy or if there's significant traffic on this route, you can take part of the route along the A41 and A43 motorways. The alternative route to Courchevel branches off from the main route at certain points. After crossing the Swiss-French border, you'll reach the town of Annecy, but instead of taking the lake exit, you'll continue along the A41. Approximately 82 km from Geneva Airport, follow signs for Chambéry along the N201, which then merges with the A43 and N90. From there, the road leads to Albertville and then merges with the route through Moutiers, which we discussed above.
This route from Geneva to Courchevel is approximately 179-187 km long (depending on which Courchevel station your hotel is at). However, the driving time will be approximately the same as the Lake Annecy route, from 2.5 to 3 hours.
| Route | Distance | Time | Tolls | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Via Lake Annecy | 134 km | 2.5–3.5 h | €10–20 | Scenic, enjoyable | Traffic near Annecy |
| Via Chambéry (A41/A43) | 179 km | 2.5–3.5 h | €20–40 | Faster highways | Less scenic |

This February we went to Courchevel. We were driven there and back by a bycar driver. Thank him very much! He waited for us, although the plane was delayed by 1 hour. He helped with the suitcases. Next season we want to go with them again, but this time to Zermatt!

To book a taxi from Geneva Airport to Courchevel, exit the terminal and ask the nearest taxi driver in the queue. A taxi costs approximately 700 - 1100 CHF (depending on the type of car). The journey takes approximately 2.5 - 3.5 hours, covering a distance of 185 km.
Almost all taxi drivers speak only French and do not know English (or only a little). Therefore, it can be difficult to explain to them where you need to go (it's best to have the exact address of your hotel ready). If you want to stop at a store or a restaurant on the way, it won't be easy to say.
If you're traveling in a large group (for example, more than 5 people) or have a lot of suitcases and skis, you likely won't be able to book a large van or minibus (especially during peak season). Almost all taxis are sedans or crossovers and can accommodate a maximum of 2-4 passengers, with 2-3 suitcases. It's almost impossible to fit skis or snowboards in these vehicles.
Be sure to remember that when ordering a taxi, you never know the final cost of the trip, as it is determined by the time of day, waiting in traffic, the number of passengers and luggage, the day of the week, and so on.
Working hours = 3.20 CHF/km
Monday to Friday (06:30 to 20:30)
On Saturday (from 06:30 to 18:00)
*For a group of not more than 3 passengers.
After working hours and at night = 3,80 CHF/km
Monday to Friday (20:30 to 06:30)
On Saturday (from 18:00 to 06:30)
On Sundays and holidays.
*Also for a group of 4 passengers
Price depending on the number of passengers.
1 - 2 passengers = 4.20 CHF/km
3 passengers = 4.40 CHF/km
4 passengers = 5.20 CHF/km
5 or more passengers = 6.50 CHF/km
Let's calculate the cost of a taxi to Courchevel from Geneva Airport, for several typical variants of groups of tourists.
First option:
2 passengers, 2 L-size suitcases and 2 skis in a bag;
arrival time is 13:00 on a working day (for example, on Tuesday).
Travel by passenger car.
The length of the route is 185 km.
Price = 185 km * 3.2 CHF + 2 * 1.5 CHF + 2 * 1.5 CHF + 6.3 CHF = 607.3 CHF
-------------
Second option:
3 passengers, 2 XL suitcases and 3 skis in a bag;
Arrival time is 14:00 on Saturday.
Travel by passenger car.
The length of the route is 185 km.
Price = 185 km * 3.8 CHF + 2 * 3 CHF + 3 * 1.5 CHF + 6.3 CHF = 719.8 CHF
-------------
Third option:
6 passengers, 5 XL suitcases, 4 L suitcases and 6 skis in a bag;
arrival time is 11:00 am on Saturday.
Ride by van.
The length of the route is 185 km.
Price = 185 km * 5.2 CHF + 3 * 5 CHF + 4 * 1.5 CHF + 6 * 1.5 CHF + 6.3 CHF = 998.3 CHF
Thus the price of a taxi is about 2 times higher than the price of a transfer.
Using this table, you can compare the main pros and cons of taxis and transfers from Geneva to Courchevel and make your choice when planning your trip.

A private transfer with a dedicated driver from Geneva to Courchevel offers one of the most convenient options for reaching your holiday destination. When deciding on your mode of transport, be sure to consider a few key factors.
Flying from Geneva to Courchevel by helicopter offers a quick and convenient travel option, taking only about 35-40 minutes. However, this method comes with certain downsides. First, the high cost is €2365, and you’ll also need to arrange a car transfer for your luggage, as large suitcases and skis typically don’t fit in the helicopter—adding at least €300 more. Another drawback is that flights are often subject to cancellation or long delays due to mountain weather conditions, which can be unpredictable. Keep in mind, too, that you’ll need to arrive 30 minutes before departure, and once you land at the Courchevel airfield, you’ll still need a car to reach your hotel. All in all, the trip usually ends up taking around 1.5 to 2 hours—only slightly faster than a standard transfer.
Taking a taxi will cost about twice as much as booking a transfer. A standard taxi fare for the 190 km distance starts from 608 CHF (calculated at 3.2 CHF per km for a standard car). In contrast, a transfer costs around 290 euros. With a taxi, the final price may vary based on the time of departure, the number of passengers and bags, and additional charges for ski equipment.
Traveling to Courchevel by bus or train from Geneva is more affordable than a transfer but involves indirect routes. You'll need to change at Moutiers, making the journey approximately 4-5 hours long. The train only goes as far as Moutiers, where you’ll need to switch to another train or take a taxi. Additionally, expect to carry and transfer your luggage and ski gear multiple times along the way.
The journey from Geneva Airport to Courchevel can take different amounts of time. It depends on the type of transport, the day of the week and the weather conditions.
When you arrive at Geneva Airport, locating our driver is straightforward. After collecting your luggage, you’ll find the driver waiting for you at the arrivals area, holding a sign with your name or surname.
Sometimes, due to high passenger volumes, it may be challenging to spot your name among many signs. To make this easier, we’ll provide you with the driver’s name and WhatsApp or phone number in advance. Although Geneva Airport offers free Wi-Fi, passengers occasionally encounter connection issues. To stay in touch with the driver, it’s a good idea to activate mobile data roaming, just in case.
The driver will monitor your flight’s arrival time via a tracking app. If your flight is delayed, the driver will wait, and for extended delays, we can arrange a replacement driver if needed.
Our transfer service includes a waiting period of 1 hour after your flight lands. If additional waiting time is required, there is an extra charge of 50 to 80 euros per hour, depending on the vehicle class. If you anticipate needing more than an hour at the airport, please inform us at the time of booking so the driver can adjust their arrival and you can avoid extra fees.
When customers schedule a transfer to Courchevel, we make it a point to inquire thoroughly about their luggage. Understanding the specifics of your baggage is essential; if we overlook any details, it might lead to insufficient space in the vehicle. This could necessitate arranging a second car, subject to availability, and could result in additional costs.
Suitcases can be of different sizes. It is better to measure them and tell us the data to know exactly their size.
Size "S": height 48-53 cm; width 32-35 cm; thickness 20-23 cm
Size "M": height 58-63 cm; width 39-42 cm; thickness 23-26 cm
Size "L": height 65-70 cm; width 47-50 cm; thickness 26-29 cm
Size "XL": height 74-80 cm; width 51-54 cm; thickness 30-32 cm
From the point of view of luggage, covers can be divided into two main types of "soft" small and "hard" with wheels.
Soft covers do not take up much space, mostly they are a little larger than the length of skis or snowboards that carry (1.3 - 1.7 m). These covers are easy to place in the luggage compartment of the car and van.
Hard covers, especially with wheels, take up a lot of space both in length (up to 2,1 m) and width (up to 40 cm). They are almost not deformed, so it is very difficult to put them even in a van and they take up a lot of space.
In addition to covers and suitcases, tourists take backpacks, bags, bags for ski boots, packages, baby strollers, etc. Unfortunately, passengers do not report this often, and give information only about suitcases and cases for skiing and snowboarding. This makes transportation very difficult, as a small carry-on baggage collects a lot, so these bags then go on the knees of passengers.
Please remember to tell us all your luggage so that we can provide you with the right size car.
In order to get to the ski resort from Geneva airport comfortably, you need to choose the right car. Usually the choice is made from two main parameters of the car: capacity and class.
Small car: sedan or crossover, such as Audi A4, Volkswagen Passat, BMW X3, Mercedes E and S class. They accommodate small groups of tourists with little baggage. 2-3 passengers, 2-3 suitcases size M or L, a little hand luggage and skis in soft cases.
Vans or minibuses such as Renault Trafic, Volkswagen Multiwan, Mercedes V class or similar. They can accommodate groups of 4-8 passengers, suitcases 6-9 pieces, depending on the size M, L or XL, hand luggage and skis in both soft and hard large cases.
Buses like the Mercedes Sprinter. It could carry 12-20 passengers, 14-18 suitcases of different sizes; skis / snowboards up to 12-16 pieces (depending on the types of covers). If you have a lot of suitcases and skis or they are large, you can also order a trailer.
It is important to understand that each specific baggage and group of tourists is considered separately and the car is selected individually for each transfer.
Tourists choose a car according to their preferences in comfort and car class.
Economy class has the lowest cost, there is not very much space and quite ascetic salon. Cars such as Volkswagen Jetta or Ford Focus. Vans such as Fiat Scudo or Citroen Jumpy models.
Comfort class is more expensive, but it is more comfortable to ride in due to the fact that the interior is larger and it is made of more pleasant materials. Passenger cars like Volkswagen Passat or Toyota Camry and vans like Renault Trafic and Volkswagen Multivan.
Business class is even more expensive, but the trips in it are more comfortable than in the previous classes, there is a lot of space inside the car and the interior is made of expensive modern materials. Cars such as Mercedes E class and Mercedes Vito.
Premium class is represented by the Mercedes S class sedan and the Mercedes V class van. A car with the most comfortable seats and features that make the trip enjoyable for the most demanding passengers.

Courchevel has its own airport. But it is private and is included in the list of the five most dangerous airports in the world. Pilots require special permission to land here.

Courchevel is one of the most popular resorts in the Alps. It belongs to the Three Valleys ski area, consists of seven resorts and offers one hundred and two home pistes and 600 kilometers of pistes throughout the region.
Various festivals and other events are regularly held in Courchevel. It is not for nothing that it is considered the most fun resort of the Three Valleys; apres-ski life is developed here at the highest level. When it comes to skiing, Courchevel has a huge selection of trails for all skill levels and non-equipped freeride slopes. The resort is especially famous for its wide blue and green slopes. A one-day ski pass for an adult will be about 80 euro, but prices can change every year. Children under 5 and seniors over 75 ride at the resort for free. The most serious discounts for skiing can be obtained at the beginning and at the end of the season, and, in addition, it is very profitable to come to the resort with your family. A family ski pass for two adults and two children is cheaper.
The largest ski area in the world is also located in the French Alps, in the Savoie department, not far from the Moutiers railway station, partly in the Vanoise National Park. Three Valleys is 600 kilometers of interconnected ski slopes, about 200 ski lifts and 120 kilometers of cross-country skiing trails. The Les Trois-Vallee ski area connects the valleys of Les Alues (the resorts of Meribel, Brides-les-Bains), Saint-Bon (the towns of Courchevel, La Tania) and Belleville (the ski resorts of Val Thorens, Les Menuires, Saint-Martin-de -Belleville).
The ski area is extended into the "fourth" Maurienne valley, adjacent to Val Thorens and connected by a lift to Aurel. The geographical position of the Three Valleys more than 60 years ago was not chosen by chance. The location was ideal for the creation of an interconnected ski area and the development of winter sports: several glaciers (Péclet, Du Borgne, Boucher), three parallel valleys, mountain passes connecting them, 85% of the area is at an altitude of more than 1800 meters, providing guaranteed snow from the start December until the end of April.
Since 1973, you can ski here using a single ski pass (pass for the lifts). A ski pass for 6 days will cost about € 300, but there are a number of discounts, which can be found on the official website of the Three Valleys. All resorts are interconnected, but each place is different and you can choose the town to your liking, according to your preferences. There are typical charming alpine villages where it is pleasant to relax and take walks both in winter on crisp snow, breathing fresh frosty air, and in summer, enjoying the fragrance of alpine forbs.
More popular towns with many good shops and cool après-ski: Val Thorens - the highest mountain resort, surrounded by six glaciers; rich and famous Meribel with traditional Savoyard chalets made of wood and stone, considered the most beautiful ski resort of the 3 Valleys; and the "playground" of the super-rich - party Courchevel. Le Menuire is less attractive, but more democratic. From Orel you can quickly and easily reach all the ski resorts of the Three Valleys.
Scattered among the main resorts are lesser-known alpine villages: Saint-Martin-de-Belleville, La Tania, Brides-les-Bains. The thermal springs of the latter are the perfect place to relieve sore muscles after a quick descent from steep slopes.
Courchevel is the largest and perhaps most famous ski resort in France, located in the Rhône-Alpes region. Courchevel consists of four main stations: Courchevel 1300, Courchevel 1550, Courchevel 1650 and Courchevel 1850. Each of them has its own unique characteristics and offers a variety of opportunities for holidays and ski adventures.
Courchevel 1300 (Le Praz):
Courchevel 1300, also known as Le Praz, is a small village in the lowest resort area of Courchevel. This station has the charm of Alpine authenticity and is a great choice for those looking for traditional Alpine charm. Here you will find stone chalets and wooden buildings that give the village a cozy atmosphere. Le Praz is also famous for its restaurants and bars offering delicious Alpine cuisine. One of the main attractions of Le Praz is the ski jumping hill, where jumping competitions are held.
Courchevel 1550 (Courchevel Village):
Courchevel 1550, also known as Courchevel Village, is an ideal location for families and those looking for more affordable accommodation compared to higher stations. This cozy village has many shops, restaurants and cafes. The ski slopes in the area are suitable for beginner to intermediate skiers, making it attractive to families and groups of varying ski skill levels.
Courchevel 1650 (Courchevel Moriond):
Courchevel 1650, also known as Courchevel Moriond, is a smaller, more intimate alternative to Courchevel's higher stations. This station also has a great atmosphere and a variety of restaurants and shops. Courchevel 1650 has amazing access to the vast Trois Vallées ski area and is suitable for both beginners and experienced skiers. Here you can also enjoy scenic views of the valley and surrounding mountains.
Courchevel 1850:
Courchevel 1850 is the highest and most prestigious station in Courchevel. This is the place where world celebrities and wealthy tourists meet. The station is known for its luxury hotels, restaurants, shops and nightclubs. Here you can enjoy the highest level of service and luxury. The resort offers excellent access to the ski slopes and a huge variety of winter sports opportunities. Courchevel 1850 is a place where you can spend a luxurious time enjoying the ski slopes and the alpine atmosphere.
Each of Courchevel's stations has its own character and unique features, which makes Courchevel attractive to different categories of tourists, regardless of their preferences and budget.
Now a fashionable Alpine resort was planned to be built during the Second World War. The architect of the project was the famous urban planner Laurent Chapy. The development of Courchevel began immediately after the war. This is the first resort in France, built from scratch, and not on the basis of an existing village. In the 2011-2012 season, the French made a rebranding, changing the names of each of the four villages and moving away from the association with height. Courchevel 1850 is now known simply as Courchevel, Courchevel 1650 has been renamed Morion, Courchevel 1550 is now called the Village, and Courchevel 1330 has become known as Le Prat.
Courchevel is famous for its cuisine. Seven restaurants in this ski resort share 11 Michelin stars, four of them received two stars each (Le Chabichou). You can also relax and dine on the slopes. Absolutely all bars and restaurants have menus in English. The streets of this village beckon with showcases of luxury shops. Boutiques are represented in Courchevel: Dior and Chanel, Prada and Valentino, Louis Vuitton and Fendi, Hermes and Cartier.
The nearest international airports are in Geneva and Lyon. To get from them by car or by bus 2 - 2.5 hours. You can, of course, transfer to a private jet and in a few minutes be in Courchevel. But, firstly, it is insanely expensive, and secondly, in the ranking of the most dangerous airports in the world, the local airport ranks seventh. So it is better not to take risks, but to use road transport. As an option - a train ride to Moutiers station, from which the resort is half an hour away. The multi-level Courchevel is connected to each other by shuttle buses. They run from 8 am to midnight, travel is free (if you have a ski pass). From La Praz to Courchevel 8 km, that is, 12 minutes drive. Intermediate stations are located at a distance of 2.5 - 3.3 km from each other (five minutes by bus).
Courchevel is the best lifts in Europe (tow ropes, chairlifts, cabin lifts), a funicular, 372 kilometers of slopes, 311 slopes of various difficulty levels. Black slopes are considered the most difficult in the world. Interesting black slopes 1.5 kilometers long, starting at an altitude of 2274 meters at the Col de la Loz station and descending to a level of 1300 meters. Freestyle skiing, ski jumping, off-road descent (freeride) - extreme sportsmen in Courchevel are provided with a dose of adrenaline.

Courchevel is beautiful in summer. It's not hot here. The sun is hot during the day, and the evenings are quite cool. The mountains around are painted with different colors. Snow-white peaks, picturesque verdant valleys, transparent mountain lakes. Long walks, mountain biking, rock climbing, fishing, golf, picnics, barbecues. The cultural program is also interesting: concerts, classical music festival, cabaret evenings, various holidays. In addition, summer is the season of discounts. Shopping in branded boutiques and dining in the most expensive restaurants can be afforded without being an oligarch.

My husband and I have been coming to Courchevel for skiing for five years now. We love its slopes, and we also really like the level and variety of après ski. We ordered a transfer from ByCar for the third time, but for the first time we went in an electric car. A Tesla S came to pick us up. Of course, we were worried about how it would drive in the mountains, but it turned out that it is wonderful for snow. It has all-wheel drive. A week later, we also went back to Geneva in it. The trunk of the car is large (there are even two of them), and we put the skis in the box on the roof. We highly recommend this car. Thanks to the driver Andrey.

We arrive in Geneva on December 25. It was not easy for us to find a car at a good price on Christmas, but we found the site bycar.su on Google and they offered us a great transfer option. We got to Courchevel in a Mercedes V class for 450 euros. A new and very comfortable car. There were 4 of us girls, it was very comfortable to go, we chatted and looked at the beautiful landscapes the whole way.

Many thanks to this team for their transfers, we rent cars from them in summer and winter, in France, Spain and Italy. There are always inexpensive but convenient options. This year we went with six people in a Ford. We paid 300 euros for the transfer from Geneva airport to Courchevel. We went on Tuesday, so they gave us a discount, on Saturday they said the price was 400 euros. Although we don't like to drive on Saturdays, there are too many cars on the road to the mountains.
