Geneva Airport – Chamonix
The Chamonix valley stretches for some twenty kilometres, from Les Houches to Le Tour. For a transfer, the exact address matters as much as the name of the resort.

The route
From the airport, the route joins the A40 motorway, known as the Autoroute Blanche, then the RN205, which climbs into the valley after Passy. About 88 km and 1 h 10 min on clear roads.
On Saturdays during the winter holidays, the A40 is busy in both directions. The departure time takes this into account.
On arrival
The vehicle drops you at the address of your accommodation: Chamonix centre, Les Praz, Les Bois, Argentière or Le Tour.
Argentière, at the foot of the Grands Montets, is about ten kilometres from the centre: give the name of the hamlet in your request.
