Your private taxi in Tignes
MANCHEC Taxi provides private airport transfers to and from Tignes, with direct pickup and drop-off at your hotel, residence, apartment or chalet.
Located deep in the upper Tarentaise Valley, Tignes requires a longer mountain approach than many Alpine resorts. After Bourg-Saint-Maurice, the journey continues along the mountain road towards the different areas of Tignes.
The resort itself is divided into several distinct sectors, including Tignes 1800, Le Lavachet, Tignes Le Lac and Tignes Val Claret.
Your exact accommodation location therefore matters when organising the final part of your airport transfer.
Your driver takes you directly from the airport to your Tignes accommodation in the same private vehicle, without shared coaches, local shuttle changes or unnecessary connections.
Our service is especially suitable for families, groups and ski travellers carrying several suitcases, skis or snowboards.
We provide private transfers between Tignes and the four main airports used to reach the upper Tarentaise:
Geneva Airport
Lyon-Saint Exupéry Airport
Chambéry Savoie Mont Blanc Airport
Grenoble Alpes Isère Airport

Airport transfers to Tignes
Tignes can be reached by private transfer from Geneva, Lyon, Chambéry and Grenoble Airport.
During winter, the main approach follows the Tarentaise Valley towards Bourg-Saint-Maurice before continuing along the mountain road to Tignes.
The final section is an important part of the journey. Snow, altitude, traffic and changing winter conditions can all affect the actual transfer time.
Each airport therefore has its own dedicated Tignes transfer page with route-specific information.

We also provide private transfers between Grenoble Alpes Isère Airport and Tignes.

Your driver collects you directly from the airport terminal and takes you to your exact Tignes sector without a vehicle change.
Where will your driver drop you off in Tignes?
Tignes is made up of several resort areas at different elevations.
For an accurate arrival, provide the full name of your hotel, residence or chalet together with your Tignes sector when booking.
Tignes 1800 · Le Lavachet · Tignes Le Lac · Val Claret
Tignes 1800
Tignes 1800 is located on the approach to the higher parts of the resort.
If your accommodation is in Tignes 1800, your driver takes you directly to this sector rather than continuing unnecessarily towards Le Lac or Val Claret.
Providing your residence or hotel name helps identify the correct final access.
Le Lavachet
Le Lavachet is a separate residential area situated before Tignes Le Lac.
The sector includes apartments, chalets and residences with their own local road access.
Your driver prepares the drop-off according to the exact property entered in your booking.
Tignes Le Lac
Tignes Le Lac is one of the main centres of the resort, with numerous hotels, residences, restaurants, shops and ski facilities.
Your driver continues to the most appropriate road-accessible point serving your accommodation.
Because the area contains many different properties, the exact hotel or residence name is useful.
Tignes Val Claret
Val Claret lies further up the resort and beyond Tignes Le Lac.
A transfer to Val Claret therefore includes an additional section of mountain road.
If you are staying there, make sure Tignes Val Claret is clearly entered as your destination rather than simply “Tignes”.

Families
After a flight, travel directly to your accommodation without managing several transport connections with children, luggage and ski equipment.
Child seats can be arranged on request.
Groups
Private vans are available for groups of up to 8 passengers, depending on luggage and winter sports equipment.
The vehicle remains reserved exclusively for your party.
Skis and snowboards
You can travel with skis and snowboards.
Simply declare your equipment when booking so that a vehicle with suitable luggage capacity can be arranged.
A complete journey into the mountains
Tignes sits further into the upper Tarentaise than many ski resorts.
Your private transfer covers the complete journey from the airport, through Bourg-Saint-Maurice and all the way to your accommodation in Tignes.
Tignes, a high-altitude resort deep in the Tarentaise
The geographical position of Tignes has a direct impact on airport transfers.
After Albertville, the journey continues for a significant distance through the Tarentaise Valley before reaching Bourg-Saint-Maurice.
From there, the road climbs into the mountains towards Tignes.
During winter, the route must be planned according to roads that are actually open and the conditions on the day of travel.
High mountain passes that may appear as alternatives during summer should not be treated as standard winter routes.
Snowfall, holiday traffic and road conditions can also increase journey times on the final section.
For airport departures, the pickup time should therefore include a suitable margin based on your flight, season and expected traffic conditions.
