Alternative to Les Gets Transfers
While a pre-booked transfer is usually the simplest and most convenient way to reach Les Gets, there are several other travel options depending on your budget, travel style and arrival plans.
Train and public transport: Les Gets does not have its own railway station. Most rail journeys finish at Cluses, around 30 minutes from the resort, where you’ll need to continue by bus or taxi. While travelling by train is possible, onward connections can add extra travel time and are often less convenient if you’re carrying ski equipment.
Car hire: Hiring a car from Geneva Airport gives you flexibility to explore the Portes du Soleil during your stay. However, winter driving in the Alps can be challenging, particularly during snowfall or busy Saturday changeover days. French regulations also require suitable winter equipment, so check tyre and snow chain requirements before travelling.
Scheduled shuttle bus services: Budget shuttle operators can cost less than a door-to-door transfer, but they typically run to fixed departure times and often make multiple resort stops before reaching Les Gets. Some services may also require a change of vehicle, increasing overall journey time.
For most visitors, particularly families, groups and anyone travelling with ski equipment, a pre-booked door-to-door transfer offers the best combination of convenience, comfort and reliability
