The Chambéry Airport to Samoëns route in detail
The drive leaves Chambéry Airport on the motorway north past Annecy to Cluses, leaving it there for the D902. From Cluses the D902 climbs through Châtillon-sur-Cluses to Taninges, where the D907 branches off up the Giffre valley through Verchaix to Samoëns. It is a single valley road beyond that junction, so a slow vehicle ahead sets the pace for everyone behind it.
Cluses is where the fast road ends and the mountain section begins. The run from there up to Samoëns takes 25 to 40 minutes depending on conditions — a steady climb that gains altitude the whole way, and the part of the journey where knowing the road actually matters.
Winter driving on this route
Under the Loi Montagne, vehicles travelling to French Alpine resorts must carry winter tyres or snow chains between 1 November and 31 March. This is enforced, not advisory. Our vehicles run on winter tyres with chains carried as standard, so the driver fits them where the road demands it instead of joining the queue in Taninges.
Chains are needed on the Giffre valley road more often than most visitors expect, and fitting them adds ten to fifteen minutes to the journey. Satellite navigation will sometimes route over cols that are closed all winter — the Col de la Madeleine, Col de l’Iseran and Cormet de Roselend among them. Drivers who run these roads daily do not follow a screen into them.

Do I need snow chains for a transfer to Samoëns?
Not for our transfers — the vehicle is already equipped. Under the Loi Montagne, vehicles travelling to French Alpine resorts must carry winter tyres or snow chains between 1 November and 31 March. This is enforced, not advisory. We carry chains on every winter transfer and the driver fits them when the road requires it.
Why does the route go through Cluses?
Because there is no way around it. Cluses is the gateway to this valley, and every vehicle heading to Samoëns passes through it. It is also where peak-Saturday traffic concentrates.
Is the transfer private?
Yes. The vehicle is yours alone, door to door, with no shared stops and no waiting for other passengers to arrive.
What happens if my flight is delayed?
Your flight is tracked and the driver adjusts to the actual landing time, at no extra charge. You do not need to rebook or call ahead.
