 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi all ... just sorting one of next years trips and need some advice.
Group of 9 going Friday evening GVA to Meribel .... we are usually 8 and have used the excellent 3VT private transfer.
But ..... The extra person does not fit in the 8 seater minibus ...
Anyone know who has a slightly larger transfer minibus ?
Or is there an easy public transport route during the daytime on Friday ?

Altibus have a coach from Geneva to Meribel with a change at Moutiers, 4 journeys on a Friday and it is 140 euros return.
2013/14 timetable is here - http://www.alpski-bus.com/pdf/aeroski-bus.pdf and 2014/15 shouldn't be much different.
You will not be able to book it online until much later on in the year, probably November time.

PBJ, yeh, but only for 1. Draw lots and the other 8 get on the minibus.

Maybe not much less than that in a minibus?

In law there is a BIG difference between carrying 8 and 9 passengers. Amongst other things the driver will need a special licence (category D) for 9 or more. PBJ, either you're gonna have to split the group or accept that it will difficult and expensive for you to travel together.
My advice would be to hire two 'intermediate wagon' type cars and drive yourselves. This is probably the cheapest solution.

Just FYI You only need a full D licence for 17 upwards a D1 is sufficient doe 9-16 and a simple B for 8 seater minibuses.
We can offer you a quote, I will send you a PM.
