About Les Contamines-Montjoie
Les Contamines-Montjoie is an unspoilt nature village at the foot of Mont Blanc, with a genuine local feel and a quiet, scenic ski area. It makes an excellent base for exploring the Mont Blanc area including Saint-Gervais and Megève, and our drivers know the roads and conditions on this route well.
The Geneva Airport to Les Contamines route in detail
The drive leaves Geneva Airport on the A40 — the Autoroute Blanche — which runs south-east through the Arve valley towards Chamonix and the Mont Blanc massif. There is effectively one road in. The A40 is the only motorway into this valley, so peak-Saturday traffic has nowhere else to disperse to and the queue builds on the motorway itself rather than in a town. Traffic for Megève and Combloux leaves at Sallanches, junction 20; Chamonix-bound vehicles stay on to the end of the motorway.
Le Fayet is where the fast road ends and the mountain section begins. The climb from there up to Les Contamines takes 20 to 40 minutes depending on conditions — a winding ascent 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 at the foot of the climb.
The A40 is cleared and gritted continuously and stays open in heavy snow, though the limit drops from 130 km/h to 110 and, in poor visibility, to 90 or 70. The exposed section is the climb after the motorway ends. Satellite navigation will sometimes route over cols that are closed all winter — the Col de la Madeleine, Col de l’Iseran, Cormet de Roselend and Col du Petit-Saint-Bernard among them. Drivers who run these roads daily do not follow a screen into them.
How much does a Geneva to Les Contamines transfer cost?

| Private 7-seat minivan | €179 (approx. £154) | €25.57 |

Private or shared transfer from Geneva to Les Contamines?
We offer both. The standard or shared transfer is the lowest fare: it is for parties of up to 3 passengers, runs door to door, and you may share the minivan with other travellers, with a maximum of 3 stops on the route (if no other travellers book the same journey, it runs as a standard transfer for your party alone); under our terms the airport pick-up for a shared transfer may take place up to two hours after the scheduled time. A private transfer is a vehicle for your party only: it leaves when you have landed and stops only at your door, from €179 for a 7-seat minivan and from €184 for an 8-seat minibus, which works out at from €23.00 each when eight travel together. Read our guide to shared vs private transfer cost per person.
Geneva to Les Contamines by bus, shuttle, train or taxi
Bus and shuttle. Scheduled coaches and shared shuttle buses, where they run on this route, work to fixed timetables and stop at set points rather than at your door, so check the times against your flight.
Train. The nearest railway station to Les Contamines is Saint-Gervais-les-Bains-Le Fayet; from there you still need a bus, taxi or lift connection up to the resort.
Taxi. A Geneva to Les Contamines taxi taken from the airport rank is priced on the day rather than agreed in advance. A pre-booked transfer is the same door-to-door journey with the price confirmed before you travel, from €161.
By car. With car hire you drive the mountain road yourself and need winter tyres or snow chains in season.

Do you also cover the Mont Blanc area including Saint-Gervais and Megève?

Do I need snow chains for a transfer to Les Contamines?
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 Le Fayet?
Because there is no way around it. Le Fayet is the gateway to this valley, and every vehicle heading to Les Contamines passes through it. It is also where peak-Saturday traffic concentrates, which is why the same journey can take noticeably longer on a changeover day.
How much of the journey is mountain road?
The fast road runs as far as Le Fayet. From there the climb to Les Contamines takes 20 to 40 minutes, and that final section is the part most affected by snow and weekend traffic.
