Val Thorens is 3h to 3h15 from Lyon-Saint-Exupéry Airport, about 200 km in normal conditions. The last part of the drive, up to 2,300 m, is a proper high-mountain road, so it makes sense to leave it to a professional chauffeur.
Your Seven Ways Limousine chauffeur meets you when you arrive, by plane or by TGV, and drives you to your hotel. The return journey to the airport is also available.

Your journey
The route takes the Alps motorway via Chambéry to Albertville, then follows the Tarentaise valley to Moûtiers. From there it enters the Belleville valley, passes through Saint-Martin-de-Belleville and Les Menuires, and climbs to Val Thorens.
This climb calls for real experience of winter driving. Your chauffeur plans for it to keep the journey smooth and safe.
Airport pick-up: The meeting point is confirmed when you book, depending on your terminal (or the TGV station) and the access rules in force. Your chauffeur will be waiting there with a clear, personalised digital name board.
Val Thorens, the highest ski resort in Europe
Set at 2,300 m at the head of the Belleville valley in Savoie, Val Thorens is the highest ski resort in Europe. Its altitude means reliable snow throughout the season, with runs rising to more than 3,000 m at Cime Caron.
Part of the Three Valleys, it is linked on skis to Les Menuires, Méribel and Courchevel. The resort has often been named one of the best in the world and has high-end hotels such as the Hôtel Pashmina Le Refuge and the Koh-I Nor.
