On the ground

Samoëns, the village before the resort

Samoëns is a real stonemasons' town with its Gros‑Tilleul square, Wednesday market and the Jaÿsinia botanical garden. You stay in the village, not on the slopes: the Grand Massif Express gondola leaves from Vercland, 2 km from the centre, and your chauffeur drops you at the hotel or the lift depending on your arrival time.

The Grand Massif can also be reached from Morillon and Les Carroz, two villages lower down on the airport road: if that is where you are staying, say so when booking; the price is the same and the journey shorter. In summer, Sixt‑Fer‑à‑Cheval and its cirque are 15 minutes away.

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 Samoëns it is the A40 via Bardonnex, then the Autoroute Blanche.
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.

What if my flight is delayed?

We track your flight number live. Your chauffeur adjusts to the actual landing time and waits in the Terminal 1 arrivals hall; 60 minutes of waiting are included beyond that. No fees, nothing to do.

Are skis and bulky luggage accepted?

Yes. The E‑Class takes 3 suitcases and a ski bag; the V‑Class up to 7 suitcases with a ski rack; the Sprinter has a trailer on request. Tell us your equipment when booking, there is no surcharge.

Is the road safe when it snows?

Our vehicles run winter tyres and carry chains, and our chauffeurs know these roads in winter. If a road is closed we drop you at the nearest access point and adjust the price.

Are there busy periods for getting to Samoëns?

Yes: Guides' festival in August. On those days we leave earlier and the chauffeur follows live traffic; the price does not change.
