One way private transfer from Geneva to Morzine or from Morzine to Geneva: €280.00 (maximum of 8 people).

Relax in the knowledge that when you book one of our transfers, on arrival one of our drivers will be waiting for you. Note that transfers are subject to change depending on regulations changing in relation to Covid 19. If your flight is delayed by more than 1.5 hours or you take longer than 2 hours to come through to arrivals at Geneva after your original expected arrival time then we may need to rearrange your pick up time from Geneva. We will still ensure your pick up but it may be that you will need to wait if your flight is delayed even though you have booked a private transfer. We will aim to keep this wait time to a minimum. 

Self Catered Service

For your self catered winter holiday in Morzine, we are on hand from the moment you arrive. If you have booked transfers through us then we will be there at Geneva to meet you and drive you to your self catered apartment. If you self drive then we are there to meet you when you arrive. One of our team will be able to talk through the details of the apartment and give you some insight into the highlights of Morzine and the ski area of the Portes du Soleil. We can have your lift passes waiting for you when you arrive (no need to queue up with everyone else), offer advice with regards pre-booking your ski and snowboard hire, pre-book restaurants if required (particularly handy during the higher season weeks) and recommend some good après ski spots too.

Self catering does not have to be hard work. There are a number of catering services in Morzine who will deliver home made meals to your apartment. This saves you cooking and saves you going out to eat. You can choose from the menu and have a home cooked meal delivered and all you have to do is heat it up. Self catering made easy! We recommend Mangetout

We will make sure you have a small welcome pack with tea, coffee, sugar, milk and a bottle of wine to get your started. Cleaning products are also supplied as are dishwasher tablets and washing up liquid. All your linen and towels are provided, beds are made and everything will be spotlessly clean! 

Ski hire delivered to your door – a great service offered by All Mountain Rental (AMR). Pre-book online and receive a 20% reduction from in-resort prices. Great equipment and a professional team.

Portes du Soleil lift pass can also be pre-ordered through us. If pre-ordered then there is no need to pay until during the course of your stay and there is no credit card charge. When you arrive a member of staff will present you with your lift passes and you will know that you will not have to queue with everyone else in the morning. You can just concentrate on getting on that first lift! No queues, no extra cost, no bother. Just another service we offer.
