ABOUT TIGNES
Located high in the French Alps, Tignes is world-renowned for its exceptional snow reliability. Thanks to its high altitude and the Grande Motte glacier, it offers some of the longest ski seasons in Europe, making it the ultimate destination for snow sports enthusiasts. Together with neighboring Val d'Isère, it forms the prestigious Tignes-Val d'Isère ski area (formerly Espace Killy). The resort is divided into three main villages: Val Claret (2,100m) sitting at the foot of the glacier, and the interconnected Le Lac and Le Lavachet. These distinct areas are linked by a complimentary 24-hour bus service, allowing you to easily enjoy the cozy village feel of Le Lac or the vibrant nightlife of Val Claret regardless of where you stay.
Snow Guarantee: One of the highest resorts in Europe, offering glacier skiing and snow-sure slopes.
Seamless Connection: Linked to the high-end resort of Val d'Isère, creating a massive ski playground.
Village Variety: From the convenient Val Claret to the scenic Le Lac, all connected by free 24/7 shuttles.
Frequently Asked Questions: Transfer to Tignes
How much does a transfer to Tignes cost?
Our rates are fixed and guaranteed at booking. Unlike traditional taxis with meters, you know the final price in advance. The cost depends on the vehicle chosen (Sedan or Van) and the departure airport.
Can I order an Uber to Tignes?
Services like Uber are very rare or non-existent in alpine valleys and often refuse long-distance trips to high-altitude resorts. Booking a private driver with Ski Resort Driver guarantees the availability of a snow-adapted vehicle.
Is ski transport included?
Absolutely. As ski transfer specialists, we transport your equipment (skis, snowboards, boots) free of charge. Please let us know the volume when booking so we can provide a large enough vehicle (Mercedes Class V Van recommended for groups).
Do you have child car seats?
Your children's safety is our priority. We provide free baby seats and booster seats that comply with safety standards. Simply indicate your children's ages in the booking form.
