Geneva to Les Gets Transfers

Your Private Transfer From Geneva to Les Gets
Geneva to Les Gets transfers with Airport Executive cover 72.5 km, or 45 miles, and take approximately 1 hour 7 minutes in good conditions. A private transfer starts from £304, in a vehicle for your party alone.
Les Gets is the first Portes du Soleil village on this road from Geneva, which suits families with small children. Just over an hour is a single nap or one film on a tablet, so they reach the village tired from the flight rather than from the road.
Your chauffeur takes you to your accommodation where vehicles are permitted, or to the nearest permitted drop-off, and helps with your bags.
Les Gets sits alongside the other Alpine routes on our Geneva Airport transfers page, and our destinations across France cover the rest of your trip.
Whether you are a family with a pushchair and a first set of children's skis, a group of friends sharing a chalet above the village, or a corporate party heading out for a few days on the slopes, a private car keeps everyone and everything together from the arrivals hall to the village.

How Much Is a Geneva to Les Gets Transfer?
A private transfer from Geneva Airport to Les Gets starts from £304 for the 45 mile journey, approximately 1 hour 7 minutes in good conditions, in a vehicle used by your party alone. The price is fixed at booking and depends on your party size and vehicle class.
That figure is the fare to the centre of Les Gets. A hamlet or any other address outside the centre is priced when you book. Party size and vehicle make the bigger difference: six of you with a pushchair and a pile of boot bags will be priced on a larger vehicle than four travelling light.
Is a shared shuttle cheaper? Per seat, usually yes. For a family, though, multiply the seat fare by everyone travelling, double it for the return, and set that total against one fixed price for a car that leaves as soon as your last bag is loaded.
Whatever price your confirmation shows is what you pay, however slow the climb through Taninges, however late your flight and however much snow has fallen.
Areas of Les Gets We Cover
Les Gets describes itself as an authentic village, with a centre and a scatter of hamlets on the slopes around it. Where you are dropped depends on where in Les Gets you are staying, so the address on your booking matters more here than the resort name.
The Village Centre
The centre is the reference point for the £304 fare. The official Les Gets transport and mobility page says the village gives priority to pedestrians in the centre, with the main street pedestrianised at certain times of the year. If your accommodation sits on or beside a pedestrian section, your chauffeur takes you to the nearest permitted drop-off, which may leave a short walk to the front door. Tell us when you book if anyone in your party needs the shortest walk possible.
The Hamlets
The resort's free shuttle lines name three of the hamlets: Le Rocher and Les Chavannes on Line F, and Les Cornuts on Line G, according to the Les Gets free shuttles page.
Hamlets and other outlying addresses are priced at booking from the full address. Give us the chalet name, the street and the owner's access notes: on the hamlet lanes above Les Gets, a line such as "second drive after the bend" has saved our chauffeurs more than one reverse back down the hill.
Getting Around Once You Arrive
The resort says the free Les Gets Bus runs through the village and its hamlets every day, winter and summer, and a winter night shuttle has served the village and surrounding hamlets in the evenings. The 2026/27 winter timetable has not been published yet, so check the free shuttles page closer to your trip, or the PYSAE app, which shows buses in real time and flags route changes after heavy snow. Some chalets and hotels also run their own shuttle, so ask yours.
So a family can manage the week without a car: the transfer gets you and the luggage in, and the free bus gets the children to ski school and back.
Les Gets and the Portes du Soleil
The Les Gets ski page splits the resort's skiing into two sectors: Chavannes, with wide, sunny runs, dedicated beginner zones and the link towards Morzine, and the quieter Mont-Chéry, with views of the Mont Blanc range. It also lists day nurseries, ski schools and a themed children's area, which is much of the reason families choose it. Beyond the village, Les Gets is one of the 12 French and Swiss resorts of the Portes du Soleil.
Meeting Your Chauffeur at Geneva Airport
Arriving at Geneva
We monitor your flight and move the pickup if you land early or late, so you do not need to call anyone. Your chauffeur waits in the arrivals hall with a name board and, once your cases and skis are off the belt, helps you load the vehicle.
When you book, tell us how many adults and children are travelling, the children's ages and everything you are bringing, so the right vehicle turns up. If you need baby seats or booster seats, ask at booking and give each child's age and weight.
Returning to Geneva Airport
Your return pickup is from your accommodation in Les Gets where vehicles are permitted, or from the nearest permitted point. We set the time around the descent from the village, the road conditions on the day and your airline's check-in and bag drop deadlines, and we confirm it before your departure day. From the pedestrian centre, we would usually collect you where we dropped you, so nobody is hunting for the car with cases and a pushchair.
Booking the return with your outbound journey keeps both legs on one booking.
Vehicles Built for Ski Gear and Family Luggage
Family ski luggage grows in ways adult luggage does not. On top of the cases, skis and boots come the pushchair, the helmets and the boot bags, and all of it counts towards the load.
We match the vehicle to your party and your kit. Estate cars suit smaller groups with soft ski bags. Larger MPVs and minibuses take groups of six to eight with full equipment, so a family travelling with grandparents, or two families sharing a chalet, can stay in one vehicle.
List everything when you book, and we will send a vehicle that fits it.
Winter Timing Tips
Changeover Saturdays are the days most likely to stretch a journey of just over an hour, and those in the school holidays are the heaviest. Rather than fix a departure time in advance, we plan around the day you actually travel, using France's national traffic service, Bison Futé, which publishes forecasts by date, and the Haute-Savoie road information service, Inforoute74, which grades conditions on the department's roads. On those Saturdays, much of the traffic climbing from Taninges is bound for Morzine, and Les Gets guests are dropped before it heads down the valley.
The Christmas, New Year and February half term weeks are booked up first, and larger vehicles go soonest. If you are travelling then, confirm your transfer when you book your flights.
A late landing with tired children is easier here than in a car-free resort. Les Gets is reached by road, so an evening arrival still ends at your accommodation, or the nearest permitted point on a pedestrian section, with no cable car to catch.
Winter driving is your chauffeur's job, not yours, so nobody in your party is reading tyre sidewalls or fitting chains on the climb into Les Gets.

Give us your flight number, the number of adults and children, the children's ages, what you are bringing and the full address of your accommodation in Les Gets, and we will arrange the rest.

Book your transferThe Geneva to Les Gets Route
The Road via the A40 and Taninges
The fastest route leaves Geneva Airport, crosses into France and follows the A40 motorway east, then turns off onto the D907 through Taninges for the climb to Les Gets, 72.5 km in all. An alternative route covers 81.7 km. You will see other distances quoted elsewhere, because sites measure different routes and start points. This page uses the fastest Google Maps route.
The A40 runs to time. It is the D907 climb, in snow or Saturday traffic, that decides how long the journey takes.
Les Gets, Morzine and Avoriaz on One Road
Les Gets sits on the road to Morzine, which continues down the valley beyond the village, and the two share their skiing through the Chavannes link. If part of your group is staying further on, see our Geneva to Morzine transfers and, for the car-free resort above Morzine, our Geneva to Avoriaz transfers.
Which Airport Is Best for Les Gets?
Geneva is the best airport for Les Gets for most UK travellers. It is the nearest major international airport to the resort, with flights from across the UK through the winter.
The Les Gets access page lists Annecy at 82 km and Lyon at 170 km from the resort, so neither saves you road time compared with Geneva. If your flights only work through Lyon, see our Lyon Airport page.
Other Ways to Reach Les Gets
- Private transfer: from £304 for the whole vehicle, leaves when you land, to your accommodation where vehicles are permitted
- Shared shuttle or coach: priced per seat, fixed timetable, stops for other passengers
- Bus and train: several changes, via Thonon-les-Bains or Cluses
- Hire car: your own timetable, plus winter equipment, child seats, tolls and parking to arrange
Shared Shuttles and Coaches
The Les Gets access page lists a range of seasonal shuttle and coach operators from Geneva Airport, some daily and others only on certain days. They suit a couple with light bags. The trade-off is a fixed timetable, stops for other passengers, and a wait at the airport if your flight, or someone else's, runs late. With children, that wait is the honest reason to pay for a private car.
Bus and Train
There is no train to Les Gets itself. The resort's access page gives two public transport routes. Trains run about five times an hour from Geneva Airport to Geneva Cornavin. From there, take the T71 or the Léman Express to Thonon-les-Bains and then the Y91 bus to Les Gets, or the Léman Express to Cluses and then the Y92 bus. The resort points travellers to Altibus for timetables and bookings.
It works with light bags. With a pushchair, ski bags and children, it means several changes of vehicle before you reach the village.
Hire Car
A hire car gives you your own timetable and puts everything else on you: the winter equipment rules below, a child seat for every child, tolls on the A40 motorway and a car park once you arrive, where it may sit still for most of the week.
If you are travelling with children, with ski gear or as a group, a private transfer is the simplest way in. For more on planning an Alpine arrival, read our guide to seamless transfers from airports to ski resorts.
Local Rules on the Road to Les Gets
Winter Tyres, Chains and Snow Socks
The Les Gets access page states that winter equipment is compulsory from 1 November to 31 March. Under France's Loi Montagne, which applies across Haute-Savoie, that means either four winter tyres carrying the 3PMSF snowflake marking, or chains or textile snow socks carried for at least two drive wheels. Service-Public's guide to the winter equipment rules confirms that 3PMSF tyres are the only winter tyres accepted in place of carrying chains or socks.
Hiring a car? Ask the rental desk what it is fitted with before you sign. If you travel with us, your chauffeur handles it.
Parking in the Village
Les Gets runs several public car parks, including Les Perrières, the underground car park at Chavannes and Parking des Marais, and the resort asks drivers to leave the car there and move around on foot or by shuttle bus. On a private transfer, none of that applies. Your chauffeur drops you and drives away.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much is a private transfer from Geneva Airport to Les Gets?
A private transfer from Geneva Airport to Les Gets starts from £304 for the 45 mile journey, in a vehicle used only by your party. That price is to the village centre. Hamlets and other addresses are priced at booking, and your party size and vehicle class set the final figure, which is fixed when you book.
How long does the transfer from Geneva to Les Gets take?
Approximately 1 hour 7 minutes in good conditions, covering 72.5 km via the A40 and the D907 through Taninges. Saturdays, school holiday changeovers and snow add time, so allow more on peak weekends. We plan the timing around the day you actually travel rather than a fixed departure time.
Is it cheaper to take a shared shuttle or a private transfer to Les Gets?
Per seat, a shared shuttle is usually cheaper. A private transfer is one fixed price for the whole vehicle, so for families and groups the fair comparison is the shuttle fare multiplied by everyone travelling, for both legs, against one fare for a car that leaves when you land.
Will the transfer take us to our accommodation in Les Gets?
Yes, where vehicles are permitted. The village centre gives priority to pedestrians, so if your accommodation is on a pedestrian section, your chauffeur takes you to the nearest permitted drop-off. Give the full address when you book. Once you are settled, the free Les Gets Bus covers the village and its hamlets.
Can we bring child seats, pushchairs and ski bags?
Yes. Tell us at booking how many children are travelling, with their ages and weights, and list everything you are bringing, including pushchairs, ski bags and boot bags, so we can send a vehicle with room for it all. If you need baby or booster seats, ask at the same time.
Is there a bus or train from Geneva Airport to Les Gets?
Yes, with changes. The resort's access page gives two routes from Geneva Cornavin: the T71 or Léman Express to Thonon-les-Bains, then the Y91 bus, or the Léman Express to Cluses, then the Y92 bus. Trains run about five times an hour from the airport to Cornavin. With pushchairs and ski bags, it is hard going.
What happens if our flight is delayed?
Nothing changes for you. We monitor your flight and adjust your pickup time automatically, so your chauffeur is in arrivals when you actually land. Les Gets is reached by road, so a late landing still ends at your accommodation, or the nearest permitted drop-off, with no cable car or connection to miss.
