 Poster: A snowHead

Realised I’ve completely forgotten about the fact that I need to sort transfers from the airport to Arc 1800 for our week, 7/4 to 14/4! Doh. Where is best to book these? There are 5 of us, 4 adults and 1 teen. Private coach? Car hire? Thanks!

@Phae88, Though I have never done it my wife said a taxi to the station and train was good. On the other hand my nepthew on another occaision reported that he found getting a taxi from Chambery station to the airport was very difficult. Oddly there doesn't appear to be a shuttle bus from the airport to the station.

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

There is, or certainly used to be, a bus from Chambery airport to the station in Bourg St Maurice from which you can take the funicular up to 1600. I think its then a bus to 1800 but none of my family have done that bit. Alternatively take a taxi up from BSM station. Cost me around £80 pounds from BSM station to Arc 2000 a couple or so years back.
I`m sure there will be others along shortly with more information.

I'd probably hire a car, if you are not taking stonking amounts of luggage. For 5 people should be quite cost-effective. Just be sure that whatever kind of transfer you arrange you have a contingency plan for being diverted to Lyon or somewhere..... It does happen fairly often at Chambery.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

There’s a fab website where you put in what you want and taxi firms put in their bids. We got very reasonable transfers for the same journey 2 years ago. I think it’s called FindTransfers.

Checked and it’s this one. I’m sure I found out about it on here and we got great service and prices and would definitely recommend.

I was just looking at this but there doesn’t seem to be many trains running on a Saturday?

@Phae88, They run roughly one an hour. I looked at the sncf web page
@CaravanSkier, I meant from Chambery airport to Chambery railway station

FAQ
I understood that. Maybe my response was confusing? Apologies, I was just trying to add to the information.
