Private Transfer Malpensa
& Milan to Méribel
Door-to-door Mercedes with an English-speaking driver from Malpensa, Linate or Bergamo arrivals, or your Milan hotel, to your chalet or hotel in Méribel or Mottaret, in the heart of the 3 Vallées. About 4 h 10 via Turin and the Fréjus tunnel, the fastest route all year round, from €1,100 per car.
Malpensa or Milan to Méribel by Private Car: About 4 Hours
A private transfer from Malpensa to Méribel covers about 365 km and takes around 4 h 10: motorway to Turin and up the Susa valley, the Fréjus tunnel into France, then the Maurienne valley to Albertville, Moûtiers and Brides-les-Bains, and the road up the Allues valley to Méribel at 1,450 m. From central Milan the time is about the same, from Linate about 4 h 25 and from Bergamo about 4 h 40. The price is for the whole car, not per person, and includes fuel, motorway tolls and parking; the Fréjus tunnel toll is not included.
It is motorway almost all the way and the fastest route in every season, so we use it all year; the Little St Bernard Pass is closed from autumn to late spring, and the Mont Blanc tunnel via Chamonix is our alternative if the Fréjus is closed. Geneva and Chambéry are closer to Méribel, 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 through Moûtiers.
We drive to every chalet and hotel in Méribel Centre, Mottaret, Méribel Village and Les Allues, and on to Courchevel and Val Thorens in the same 3 Vallées ski area. For chalets on private or steep roads, send us the address and we plan the drop-off with you. Check your price and book online →

Which route do you take from Milan to Méribel in winter?
We drive via Turin and the Fréjus tunnel all year round: it is motorway almost all the way and the fastest route in every season. The Little St Bernard Pass is closed from autumn to late spring, and the Mont Blanc tunnel via Chamonix is our alternative when the Fréjus is closed.
Is Malpensa or Geneva better for Méribel?
Geneva is closer, about 2 h 15 by car, and Chambéry about 1 h 30. Malpensa is about 4 h 10, and makes sense when your long-haul flight lands in Milan, or when you combine the Alps with Milan or Lake Como.
Can you pick us up at Malpensa and drive straight to Méribel?
Yes. The driver follows your flight in real time, waits inside arrivals at Terminal 1 or 2 with a name board, includes 60 minutes of free waiting after landing and drives straight to Méribel without going into Milan.
Do we need a passport to go from Milan to Méribel?
Italy and France are both in the Schengen area, so there is normally no passport control in the Fréjus tunnel, but checks can happen and every passenger needs a valid passport or national ID card.
Do you drive to Mottaret, Courchevel and Val Thorens?
Yes. Malpensa to Méribel-Mottaret starts from €1,115 and Milan to Mottaret from €1,135 per car. Courchevel and Val Thorens have their own pages.

Do you drive from Lake Como to Méribel?
Yes. Como to Méribel starts from €995, Tremezzo from €1,075 and Bellagio from €1,095 per car.
Are your cars equipped for French winter roads?

Which Airport for Méribel: Malpensa, Geneva or Chambéry?
Chambéry is the closest airport to Méribel, about 1 h 30 by car, but has mostly seasonal weekend flights. Geneva is about 2 h 15 and Lyon about 2 h 30. Milan Malpensa is about 4 h 10. 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 through Moûtiers. Méribel also has a small altiport for light aircraft.
Why We Drive via the Fréjus Tunnel
From Milan there are three roads into the Tarentaise valley. The fastest, all year round, 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 when the Fréjus is closed for maintenance, and the Little St Bernard Pass from La Thuile is closed from autumn to late spring. 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 3 Vallées, and the road between Albertville and Moûtiers 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, we usually suggest leaving Méribel about seven hours before take-off.
