On the ground

Lausanne, the city on a slope

Lausanne climbs 500 m from the station and Ouchy on the lake up to the cathedral and the Flon: central addresses are often pedestrian or one‑way, and your chauffeur knows the access points of the hotels, EPFL and CHUV. Ouchy, Pully and Lutry are covered at the same fare.

Business or Olympic trip: the Olympic Museum, the IOC at Vidy and the federations are 5 minutes from the station. The train from Geneva Airport takes 45 minutes; the car wins with luggage and for going straight to EPFL, Épalinges or La Tour‑de‑Peilz.

Geneva Airport

How pick‑up works at Geneva Airport

Meeting point, Terminal 1Your chauffeur waits in the Terminal 1 arrivals hall with a name board, Swiss side. Landing on the French side? Tell us and we meet you at the French sector exit.
Parking and luggageThe car is parked in P1, a three‑minute walk away; the chauffeur pushes the trolley and loads everything, skis included.
Leaving GenevaDepending on the destination we take the A1 towards Lausanne and the Valais or the A40 towards Haute‑Savoie; the Bardonnex or Vallard customs post is usually passed without stopping. For Lausanne it is the A1 along Lake Geneva, no border to cross.
Geneva‑based teamOur Geneva chauffeurs serve the Lake Geneva region, Haute‑Savoie and the Valais all year round: they know the Mont‑Blanc bridge rush hours and the customs queue days.
