The taxi will be more convenient than the bus, but also quite a bit more money. You are looking at paying about €500,00 for a standard vehicle. The exact price will be shown on the taximeter, once the ride is completed. You will find taxi vehicles parked right outside the Terminal building.
They all have the roof sign ‘taxi’. Each driver also has to have the license displayed. Now, even though the service is convenient, it might be quite difficult to find a free taxi during the high season. It might mean losing a lot of time.
To avoid losing your precious time and to arrive at your destination relaxed and stress-free, book a private transfer. It is a private taxi which you book online, in advance. You can place an order by filling out a simple form with the details of your trip. You’ll be able to see the price, which is fixed and all-inclusive. On the day of your travel, the driver will be waiting at the arrivals area of Grenoble airport.
You will recognize him by the sign he’s holding with your name on it. After greeting you, he will immediately escort you to the vehicle. You will enjoy a reliable, safe, and pleasant ride from Grenoble airport to Val d’Isere.
