Whether you arrive at the start of your ski holiday by train or plane, we are able to pick you up and transport you safely to Sainte Foy and your chalet or apartment.
We understand that travelling to France can be a tiring experience, especially when you are travelling with bulky equipment or a family, so why not let us complete the last leg of the journey for you? That way, you are free to relax and enjoy the spectacular scenery as you enter the Alps!
We are able to pick you up from the airports of Geneva, Lyon, Grenoble, Chambery and Annecy as well as the train station in Bourg Saint Maurice.
Arrive at the airport or train station to be greeted by one of our fully-trained, friendly drivers. Our drivers, who are all English speaking, will be looking out for you and waiting with a sign so that you can easily identify them. You will be given your driver's name and number in advance and your driver will also have a contact number for you.
Your driver will then show you to your warm 4WD Volkswagen minibus; all of our vehicles are the latest models and are fitted with winter tyres and snow chains where necessary. Your luggage will then be put into the vehicle while you get seated and comfortable. If you have children, your pre-booked complimentary child or booster seats will be ready and your driver will help ensure all seat belts are fitted securely before setting off.
Sit back, relax, and enjoy the journey to Sainte Foy! If you have any questions 'en route' regarding the resort, your holiday property, or perhaps the snow conditions, just ask your driver and he will be happy to help!
On arrival at Sainte Foy, you will be shown either straight to your chalet (if you have chosen a catered holiday) or to the Première Neige concierge desk (if you are self-catering) where you will be checked in*. Our friendly concierge staff can answer any queries you may have. Once you are checked in, your driver will take you to your chalet or apartment and help you put your luggage into the property.
In the event that our transfer buses are full or for large groups we can book you on a transfer with our preferred local transfer company, The Cool Bus. The Cool Bus are competitively priced and provide a punctual and friendly service. We will arrange all the details and book the transfer on your behalf.
Please note that these options, whilst being amongst the cheapest around, will invariably cost more than a Premiere Neige transfer.
Settle in, relax, and enjoy the start of your holiday in Sainte Foy! Should you wish to explore the neighbouring resorts or enjoy an evening meal at one of the local restaurants during the week, pop in to concierge to arrange another convenient transfer.
* N.B. Please note that check-in time is 4pm on your arrival day. If your property is ready before 4pm we will do our best to ensure an earlier check-in however this cannot be guaranteed. We try our best to prepare properties as early as possible but during busy periods this is not always possible.
This service allows you to explore the local surrounding ski resorts and restaurants, all of which are a short drive from Sainte Foy. Whether you would like to try a day trip to La Rosière with lunch in Italy, go to Val d'Isère to do some shopping, or sample some authentic Sainte Foy cuisine at one of the restaurants near to the resort, we are able to take you there - just pop into our Concierge office during your holiday to find out pricing and availability.
