looking at the altibus transfer from Chamberry to Les Menuires the website says it takes 3hrs which seems a bit long for a 100km journey, Altibus also only change €50 return, any idea if the 3hrs quoted time is correct or will we hopefully get there a bit sooner?

Looks like they add an hour to the Saturday afternoon transfer. The morning transfer is only quoted as two hours, which is about right if the roads are clear.
Perhaps they add an hour for extra Saturday afternoon traffic, extra stops, or bus change at Moutiers.

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

Does it involve a transfer onto a different bus at Moutiers?

I don't know, it was a guess as to why they add the extra hour vs the two other scheduled transfers on a Saturday.
50 euros is a really good return transfer price, so you ca't complain if they do.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

ah thanks, hadn't though of the extra traffic, is it really so busy going into the 3V on a Saturday?
I guess we'll just have to hope it's a quiet day!

You'll need to Register first of course.

I took the Altibus to Meribel from Geneva and if I remember rightly we changed in Moutier. Took forever but was cheap as chips.
I did some airport pick-ups out there and some Saturdays were a nightmare from Albertville onwards. During February, 6 hours (one way) was common from Geneva to La Tania.

We did Chambery to Val Thorens on the Altibus and had to change at Moutier both ways with a bit of a wait for all the buses to arrive, but I'm pretty sure that the VT bus went through LM... It's a bit of a scramble trying to find the correct bus for your resort but it worked out ok and was the cheapest transfer we could find at the time.
