Private Transfer Malpensa
& Milan to Val d’Isère
Door-to-door Mercedes with an English-speaking driver from Malpensa, Linate or Bergamo arrivals, or your Milan hotel, to your hotel or chalet in Val d’Isère or Tignes. About 4 h 45 in winter via Turin and the Fréjus tunnel, from €1,230 per car.
Malpensa or Milan to Val d’Isère by Private Car: About 4¾ Hours in Winter
A private transfer from Malpensa to Val d’Isère covers about 405 km in winter and takes around 4 h 45: motorway to Turin, the Fréjus tunnel into France, the Maurienne valley to Albertville, then up the Tarentaise through Moûtiers and Bourg-Saint-Maurice, past the Tignes dam to Val d’Isère at 1,850 m. From central Milan the time is about the same, from Linate about 5 hours and from Bergamo about 5 h 15. The price is for the whole car, not per person, and includes fuel, motorway tolls and parking.
In summer, when the Little St Bernard Pass is open (usually from June to October), we drive through the Aosta Valley and over the pass straight down to Bourg-Saint-Maurice, and the trip takes about 4 hours. From late autumn to late spring the pass is closed, and the Fréjus is the fastest way in. Geneva and Chambéry are closer, but if your flight lands in Milan, or you are combining the Alps with Milan or Lake Como, a private car from Malpensa saves you a second flight and a train-and-bus connection via Bourg-Saint-Maurice.
We drive to every part of Val d’Isère, from the village centre to Le Fornet and La Daille, and to Tignes Le Lac, Val Claret and Tignes les Boisses, which share the same ski area. Check your price and book online →

Which route do you take from Milan to Val d’Isère in winter?
The Little St Bernard Pass is closed from late autumn to late spring, so in the ski season we take the motorway to Turin, the Fréjus tunnel and the A43 down the Maurienne valley to Albertville, then up the Tarentaise through Moûtiers and Bourg-Saint-Maurice. If the Fréjus is closed we use the Mont Blanc tunnel via Chamonix. In summer we cross the Little St Bernard Pass.
Which airport is closest to Val d’Isère?
Chambéry is the closest, about 2 hours by car, but has mostly seasonal weekend flights. Geneva and Lyon are about 3 hours. Milan Malpensa is about 4 h 45 in winter and is the right choice when your flight lands in Milan or you combine the Alps with Milan or Lake Como. Transfers from Geneva, Chambéry and Lyon are on request.

Do we need a passport to go from Milan to Val d’Isère?
Italy and France are both in the Schengen area, so there is normally no border control, but checks can happen at the Fréjus tunnel. Every passenger should carry a valid passport or national ID card.
Is there a train from Milan to Val d’Isère?
There is no direct train. From Milan you need trains via Turin and Chambéry to Bourg-Saint-Maurice and then a bus up to Val d’Isère, usually seven hours or more with several changes. A private car takes about 4 h 45 to your hotel door with no changes.
Can you take our skis?
Yes. Ski and snowboard bags fit in the Mercedes V-Class together with the luggage of up to 6 passengers. Tell us how many ski bags you have when you book so we send the right car.

Payment is made online through a secure link. Cancellation terms are in our booking terms and conditions.
Which Airport for Val d’Isère: Malpensa, Geneva or Chambéry?
Chambéry is the closest airport to Val d’Isère, about 2 hours by car, but has mostly seasonal weekend flights. Geneva and Lyon are about 3 hours. Milan Malpensa is about 4 h 45 in winter and about 4 hours in summer. Malpensa makes sense when your long-haul flight lands in Milan, when you combine the Alps with Milan or Lake Como, or when there is no convenient connection to Geneva: a private car door to door avoids a second flight or a train and bus via Bourg-Saint-Maurice.
Winter and Summer Routes from Milan
The shortest road from Milan to Val d’Isère crosses the Little St Bernard Pass from La Thuile to Bourg-Saint-Maurice, but it is closed from late autumn to late spring. In the ski season the fastest route is the motorway to Turin, the Fréjus tunnel and the A43 down the Maurienne valley to Albertville, almost all motorway with no mountain pass; the Mont Blanc tunnel via Chamonix is our alternative if the Fréjus is closed. The Col de l’Iséran above Val d’Isère is a summer road only. The Italy–France border is inside the tunnel: both countries are in the Schengen area, but every passenger needs a valid passport or national ID card.
Practical Tips: Saturdays, Ski Bags and the Drive Back
Saturday is change-over day in the Tarentaise, and the road between Albertville and Bourg-Saint-Maurice can be slow in both directions, so we plan extra time. Tell us how many ski bags you travel with so we send the V-Class if needed. For an afternoon flight from Malpensa in winter, we usually suggest leaving Val d’Isère about seven and a half hours before take-off.
