The Grenoble Airport to Tignes route in detail
The drive leaves Grenoble Airport on the A41 north towards Chambéry, then the A43 and N90 up the Tarentaise valley to Bourg-Saint-Maurice. From Bourg-Saint-Maurice the road climbs through Séez and Sainte-Foy-en-Tarentaise on the D902. The stretch around the Chevril dam is the known bottleneck on Saturday changeover days.
Bourg-Saint-Maurice is where the fast road ends and the mountain section begins. The climb from there up to Tignes takes 30 to 50 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 on the roadside above Bourg-Saint-Maurice.
The upper D902 hairpins hold snowpack through the season, and the climb past Séez is where under-equipped vehicles come unstuck. 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 Tignes?
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 Bourg-Saint-Maurice?
Because there is no way around it. Bourg-Saint-Maurice is the gateway to this valley, and every vehicle heading to Tignes 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.
