Poster: A snowHead

Does anyone know if it's possible to get a direct transfer from Grenoble airport to Bourg D'Oisans without having to go into Grenoble itself? Seems a bit of an back bottom. Hire car seems a bit extreme.

It wasn't possible with the public bus service when I used it. Looking at the time table that is downloadable here it almost looks as though it might be now, though. The timetable is for the airport to LDA- but if you speak nicely to the bus company, they might agree to drop you off. I see prices have rocketed. But still way cheaper than car hire. With a bit of luck Lizzard will be along to give you a local's advice.

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

Sharkymark, no. Can't see a driver agreeing to drop you either, as it would mess with his timetable (stop, fish gear out of storage, etc). You could always try it though.

You'll need to Register first of course.

When ever I've used Bens Bus they take both AdH and L2A visiters to Bourg D'Oisans (not via Grenoble) and then swap you on to buses to either resort (not as much faf as it may sound). So if it is Bourg D'Oisans you actually want to get to, then yes you can get off the bus there!

Sharkymark, I did Lyon airport to La Grave last year - including the bus stop at Grenoble. It's not too bad actually - plenty of bars to while away time in if you gave to wait.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll drop Ben's Bus a line and see if they'll drop me off. Otherwise I might end up in the bars in Grenoble...

A few years ago I had a transfer from Grenoble Airport to AdH with Actibus (http://www.actibus.eu/) including a change in Bourg D'Oisans. Therefore, although Bourg D'Oisans is not on the list on their website they may be worth trying.

Last time I came back with Bensbus they forgot to stop there... Chaos ensued....
