Hi all...

I am going to Les Menuires on 10th jan for 1 week so returning on the 17th and i want to know what the transport options are? Because im travelling sunday to sunday a private trnafer is pretty much out of the question as quotes ive had so far range anything from £480 to £600, i know this may seem reasonbale to some however im trying to do the hol on a budget so looking for cheaper alternatives.

What id like to understand is, is there a train staion/bus station at chambery airpot?
Have you ever travelled to Les menuires on a sunday, if so how did u get there if not by PT?
What are the roads like if i chose to drive. car hire is very reasonable at only 230 euros... are the roads kept clear or could this be a nightmare in waiting?
I understand you can catch a bus to Moutiers for 70 euro return, is this right, has anyone caught it and if so do they travel on sundays?

Sorry for all the questions but im in a panic now that were going to struggle to get there. if all above fails then would it be just easier to change flights?

Thanks
Christian

Try Altibus from Moutiers to Les Menuires. I've had a quote for Sunday 27th Dec for £15 return.

The drive is about an hour and 20 minutes and if you can fill the car probably cheaper than Altibus. The roads are usually ok but if you do get a dump on the day you will need snow chains to get up. Altibus do travel on Sundays. You change at Moutiers.

Thanks im actually thinking now of going by car rather than public transport. The PT is working out at 5/6 hours.... cant say im fond of that so im now thinking hire a car.

Do you know if there is plenty of parking in the resort?
