Tips for Tignes transfers

Allow 60–90 minutes extra on February Saturdays, the busiest days on the roads. Private car prices are per vehicle for up to 8 people, so they suit groups. If you land in Geneva’s French sector, tell your operator, as drivers wait on the Swiss side by default. Shuttles often share the route with Val d’Isère and Les Arcs.
