 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hello!
Well my Val T hotels got snapped up, so Val D'Isere is now committed to... first time in France and DIY so all a bit of a mess tbh. Anyway flying into Chambery to minimise transfer time, the thought of 3.5 hours on a coach does not appeal!
The question, transfers again.... i'm currently toying with car hire and parking, transfer quotes having been coming in at between €400 & €600 from almost every provider i've tried (could be looking in the wrong place). Busses are cheaper but journey time seems to be 4 hours with changes in Bourg. Car probably £100 for the week with £90 petrol, seems to be the best option (i.e. cost vs time vs convenience).
Anyone driven up to Val and has some advice on places to park?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Val Desire: Isn't there still free parking next to the cable car at Le Fornet? (With free bus connections to/from the main town?)

those prices sound odd. Very cheap car for £100 for a week - but £90 petrol would get you a very long way.
How many of you are there?

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Sorry Petrol should be parking...
Cheapest return transfer i got quoted was €270 for 2 - directly via the accommodation to be fair
Other transfers via various websites between €420 and €670 for 2 return
Snowbus came back after i'd already committed to things with a shared transfer for £160 (looks similar to car, but i've already booked stuff so too late), and driving will probably be a fun experience anyway.
