 Poster: A snowHead
|
|
Got to get from Geneva to Albertville on a as yet undisclosed date in the next 2 weeks ( or possibly from Chambery if I am lucky ) to pick up my car from the repairers. What`s the best method, cost wise. I see that the train is a bit complicated, and private hire is too expensive. I would appreciate advice from anyone who has bused it, or good value shared transfers, if they stop at Albertville. Thanks.

cstreat, E mail www.ski4funtransfers.co.uk you never know as it's the busiest time of year they may have a spare seat on one of their vans. 
Particularly if you are not to fussy about times.

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

cstreat, I discovered to my astonishment recently that there are now no regular buses (altibus etc) from Geneva to Albertville. A small transfer company which might make a special stop is probably your best bet. If all else fails, you'll presumably be travelling very light, you could get a bus to Megeve (Borini) and hitch a lift through the Arly Gorge/Ugine.

Yes, covoiturage.fr
You may need multiple trips. For example, taking this Saurday as an example, there is nothing from Geneva to Albertville, but at least 4 lifts to Chambery are being offered, and eleven from Chambery to Albertville
hope that helps

Found Aerocar bus service to Chambery from Geneva airport, with a few scheduled departures a day, 31 euros. Car sharing would be great, but is less predictable.

There are definitely buses from Geneva to Annecy. Haven't checked, but there would then almost certainly be a local bus from Annecy to Albertville.
