Looking to book your next ski trip?
Every year, thousands of skiers fly into Grenoble Airport before heading off to the slopes.
If you’re currently planning your next ski trip then here’s some great information that will help with your Grenoble airport transfers.
The airport is based at the foot of the French Alps, Aéroport de Grenoble is 45km away from the city centre so not that close but accessible. Its closest neighbour is Lyon, the third-largest city in France.
Grenoble Airport Code is GNB, you may see this code on your flight tickets. It's also known as Alpes–Isère or Grenoble Isère Airport so look out for that too.
So why choose cheap-taxis.com for your Grenoble Ski Transfer and why get a private transfer from Grenoble Airport?
Well, we offer a door to door private service just for your party which means you reach your destination in quick time.
It also offers you peace of mind knowing your driver will be waiting for you with your name on aboard.
It's much cheaper than getting a taxi, you can save midweek and Sundays where normal taxis won't offer discounts.
Simple to book, we can cater for all ages in your party and offer FREE of charge child seats and booster seats but also remember ski equipment travel free!
We only offer private door to door transfers only from Grenoble airport – cheap, but first-class - so don’t take the shuttle bus – why?
Because you could be stuck travelling up to 5 or 7 chalets before you reach yours!
In fact, this could add an hour to your journey 🙁

Ok Grenoble airport is not the best in the world but there are things you might want to know and be prepared for.
When arriving in Grenoble and before you exit the aircraft, just think about how many passengers have left before you, the reason being you might think twice and use the onboard toilet as you could be queuing a long time to pass through immigration, another top tip is to keep your hat and gloves handy as the queues could extend outside.
Check the baggage reclaim screens for your carousel but also watch others as sometimes baggage can suddenly appear on a different belt altogether!
When the time comes to travel home from Grenoble, remember the airport is only small, it can sometimes be as hectic as the underground so be prepared and expect long queues and possibly delays - one thing to note is to give yourself plenty of time for your transfer to arrive well within the 2hr checkin time, in fact, make it 3 hours to be sure.
It can take up to 40 mins to reach the checkin desk, another 30-40mins to go through security, when you have passed all this you will probably enter a crowded departure lounge with limited facilities, shops and bars.
Preparation here is the key
I booked this service not having used them before, I checked first with previous reviews and looked to have happy customers. You can never tell if their true, however I can only say both outward and return pick ups were punctual and with lovely staff. Excellent communication throughout. I definitely recommend and will use their services again
Thank you
We’ve just returned from a week long stay in Mallorca and cannot recommend this company highly enough. I’ll admit I was a bit dubious about using cheap-taxis.com at first as it just seemed too good to be true (WAY cheaper than everyone else for a return journey and only a small upfront deposit). But the service we received was totally faultless. Clear, concise instructions in advance on where and how to meet our driver, who was waiting for us on arrival at Palma. Similarly, on the way back, our driver arrived at our accommodation exactly on time. Both vehicles were new, clean, and air conditioned. It feels a bit odd to pay for both journeys in cash upfront but we really needn’t have worried. We’re heading to Lanzarote at Christmas and will definitely use cheap-taxis.com again!
Just used cheap taxis.com for hour long transfer from Palma airport and return 5 days later. Absolutely faultless service, I needed to amend our booking which was handled promptly and efficiently. The driver was waiting for us on both occasions exactly on time, was very friendly and drove very safely. The vehicle was a new high end Mercedes. I would not hesitate in using them again
i would highly recommend taxi the driver was there waiting for us very professional.

Absolutely brilliant service, lovely, helpful drivers. Will definitely use this service again
Tremendous
Inbound flight was delayed, so we’d landed after midnight
Driver met where arranged, after baggage claim, with a nice clear sign on their iPad
Helped us with the luggage, and spoke away to our shattered 2yr old
Driver chatted away, dealt with local diversions, and made sure we were in the Airbnb before even asking for the pre-arranged fare.
Excellent, clean, modern and spacious vehicle. Came with car seat, as requested too.
5 stars is more than deserved!
