What Time Will My Driver Collect Me?
The most important part of a departure transfer is arriving at check-in with time to spare. As a guide we work back from your flight: roughly 3h 37min of driving, plus about two hours for check-in and security, plus a sensible buffer for the mountain descent and the border crossing — around 6.5 hours of total lead time from this resort. For a 13:00 flight from Geneva, that means a pickup of about 06:30. When you book we confirm an exact collection time for your specific flight, so you never have to guess.

Departure Day, Made Easy
The journey starts with the winding descent from Risoul on the D902 down to Guillestre — 20 to 30 minutes depending on conditions, and the section where winter driving experience matters most. From Guillestre the N94 runs up the Durance valley through Saint-Crépin to Briançon, then the road crosses the Montgenèvre pass into Italy and drops down the Susa valley to Oulx and the Fréjus tunnel. Back in France, the A43 runs down the Maurienne to Chambéry and the A41 carries you past Annecy to Geneva Airport. The winter routing goes through Italy because the direct French road over the Col du Galibier is closed from late October until late May — carry a passport or national ID card. This is a long transfer of about 3h 37min, so we plan generous margins into your pickup time. One private vehicle takes your whole group from the door to the terminal — and if you booked your outbound with us too, we already have your details on file and simply time the return to your flight.

What time will you pick me up for my flight from Geneva?
We work back from your departure time: about 3h 37min of driving from Risoul, plus roughly two hours for check-in and security, plus a buffer for the mountain descent and the border crossing — around 6.5 hours of total lead time. For a 13:00 flight that is a pickup of about 06:30. We confirm the exact time for your flight when you book.
Can you do very early-morning departures?
Yes. We operate 24/7, 365 days a year, so early-morning and first-flight pickups from Risoul are no problem. Just give us your flight time and we’ll be at the door.
Is ski and luggage carriage included on the way back?
Yes. Skis, snowboards, boot bags and standard luggage travel at no extra charge. Let us know your bag count when booking so we send a vehicle with enough space.
Does this transfer cross into Italy?
Yes, for part of the way. The direct French road over the Col du Galibier is closed from late October until late May, so the winter route runs from Briançon over the Montgenèvre pass into Italy and through the Fréjus tunnel. Bring a passport or national ID card. The tunnel toll is included in the price quoted.
Can I book this together with my airport-to-resort transfer?
Absolutely. Most guests book both directions at once. Book your Geneva Airport to Risoul arrival and your Risoul return together, and we coordinate both around your flights.
