What is it about Chamonix ski resort that keeps keen skiers returning year after year?
Chamonix is one of the oldest French ski resorts in the region, standing majestic for around 200 years. The resort hosted the first Winter Olympics in 1924 and has a compelling historical past.
As for skiing and snowboarding, Chamonix is the place to be for advanced skiers and snowboarders looking for a challenge. Beginners and intermediates won’t be left on the side-lines however, the 20km Valle Blanch glacier run is a delight for lower level skiers.
The bustling French town of Chamonix is now home to 9000 inhabitants. It may not be the small, purpose-made ski village it once was, but the lively atmosphere, historical background and excellent skiing more than makes up for it.

What to know what a transfer with us looks like? Let’s break it down, step by step;
At Alps2Alps we offer two different types of transfers; private and shared.
Our private transfers are perfect for individuals, groups up to 8 people and families with children. With a private transfer, there is zero waiting time as your driver will meet & greet you at arrivals and escort you to your transfer vehicle.
Families travelling with small children can also arrange to stop en-route to visit the shops or stretch their legs.
If you’re looking for the cheapest route to the Alps, a shared transfer is a great alternative. Just bear in mind that you may have to wait for up to 2 hours depending on the shared service you have chosen. We always schedule our shared transfers to minimise waiting time. And you never know- you might make some new friends!
Alps2Alps have some of the best private transfer prices on the market thanks to our dynamic pricing strategy.
We take a number of factors into consideration to find the cheapest option available;

Want to save on your transfer? We offer cheaper midweek transfers (Monday-Friday) that can save you up to 50% compared to weekend travel.
The added benefit of a midweek transfer is that there is less traffic, the resorts are quieter and there are shorter ski lift queues. Get from plane to piste faster by booking midweek.
