Poster: A snowHead
|
I need to get 2 families (4 bigs, 4 small people) from Lyon to Meribel at Easter, and then back again a week later.
All the transfer companies are sooooo expensive. Car hire is coming out at around £500 + fuel, tolls etc
Are there any more clever ways I could tackle this? Surely this can be done cheaper.
Any thoughts?

Peter Leuzzi, Lyon to Moutiers by train, and then the local bus?

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

Public transport would probably be cheaper, but £75ish a head doesn't seem bad.

Bung a TO rep some cash to squeeze on their bus? Would chance it for a solo but not a family.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I agree. I don't think that's excessive.

Lyon is not that far from Meribel. So you wont need much fuel and tolls will be minimal if any on this leg of the trip. Go for it. Check out other car hire options but that sounds good for 2 cars for a week holidayautos is used by many 's and I like auto-europe

I seem to remember a lot of the TOs offer flight/transfer deals for those not booking accommodation. There was even a possibility of taking transfers only at the airport, subject to there being space on the coaches. Two people on my flight did this at the cost of €50 each. Not sure how you'd go about booking this though, it seems a bit of an ad hoc service. But if you've not already committed to flights, you should be able to book flights and transfers together.
