Meribel Ski Transfers
Meribel is located in one of the world’s premier regions for ski resorts. With neighbours such as Val Thorens, Courchevel, Tignes & Val d’Isere, it is hardly surprising that this area is one of the busiest destinations in Europe for ski holidays. Meribel’s position a short distance up from the valley town of Moutiers, means it actually has one of the shorter airport transfer times though.
The resort’s popularity with British holidaymakers means there are plenty of transfer companies providing both shared and private airport transfers for Meribel. Being served by four local airports – Geneva, Lyon, Grenoble & Chambery – means the prices and availability of services vary greatly and require some forward planning.

Private taxi companies will run Geneva airport transfers for Meribel for up to 8 passengers at almost any time of day or night – provided they are pre-booked. Most of these will tend to be more expensive at peak times and on weekends, whilst they tend to bring their overall cost down during the week when there is much less demand for the service. Prices can vary greatly, as can the quality of vehicles – which is why we would recommend using Snowcompare.com to compare all the local transfer company prices before booking.
On weekends it is also possible to find companies in Geneva offering regular shared airport transfers for Meribel. These tend to be much cheaper travel options especially for smaller groups.
