Hi, Ill be arriving in Bourg by train about 9pm Sat night. Does anyone have any info on the bus to Tignes. Does it need to be booked and how much is it?

Damien, I assume you're on the TGV from Paris, Feb 12/19? I hope your TGV's on time - although I guess the bus is scheduled to connect with it so would wait. That would be half term, so probably worth booking it. Timetable and fares at http://www.mobisavoie.fr/uploads/Document/WEB_CHEMIN_16115_1291293965.pdf . Can book on-line through www.altibus.fr (which looks like it might take you back to that mobisavoie site), which seems to give you 25% off a return fare.
If not either of those dates, then I'm afraid you're out of luck.

Damien, you need to book as it can be very busy that weekend. The bus station is right by the train arrival so very easy.

Bare in mind I once got the bus up from Bourg St.Maurice to Val d'Isere on a saturday afternoon which is run by the same company I would imagine. It left about 20 mins early thankfully I'd just got on the bus as I nearly went for a quick cheeky beer/hot chocolate in the bar opposite and I was stressing out I'd got on the wrong bus. If I had gone to the bar to kill the 30 mins I would have missed the bus.
Bare in mind things like this happen so have contigency plans especially that late at night in february!
I'm using the TGV in march so please don't talk about strikes.

Damien, outside the station main entrance is the bus station IIRC, but there are also taxis at the same place if the worst came to the worst.
