Poster: A snowHead
|
Hello - we've taken the plunge with 5 days pre Xmas skiing for 4 people in Courmayeur from 16th - 21st Dec and now realise (rather too late) that we might have a nightmare getting to the resort and back. Dread to think that we might have to spend all our pasta money on an expensive private transfer, but Alpybus doesn't seem to be running that early in the season. Has anyone had success with early season transfers to Courmayeur? Any tips VERY gratefully received!!!

@Gillbo, been a while since I did it but you can get a train from Geneva to Chamonix. Then there used to be a bus between Chamonix and Courmayeur, through the Mont Blanc tunnel.

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

@Gillbo, There is a bus from Geneva to Courmayeur.
www.rome2rio.com always a good start.

@Gillbo, or hire a car ...
"private" transfer will be very expensive ...
Mountain Dropoffs may be operating.
Google is also your friend.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

For 4 people renting a car should be a good bet. 5 days not too expensive, and with you all sharing costs. Simple drive, too (as long as you're not claustrophobic.....)

There's a Facebook Group I've had good results from & you should give it a shot. It's mostly small chalet operators looking to fill empty seats/vans, but there a few transfers companies in there too.
I've only used it for France, but Courmayeur isn't that far beyond the tunnel. In any case there's no harm in trying & you might even get some more leads there.
It's called "1st-lifts.com Tarentaise Transfers Notice Board"
Best of luck on the quest!

Flixbus do Geneva (bus station) to Courmeyeur in summer. Very reasonable price although you pay in time. Do t know how it compares to train plus bus as suggested above.
They may run in winter too.
