The benefits of self-drive
Why fly when you can drive?
Driving is by far the most flexible option, where you are in control of your own timetable, can take as much luggage as you need (including sport and leisure equipment at no extra charge), stop en-route as and when you choose! You can also stay in more than one resort and take day trips to areas of interest while maximising your leisure time in the resort.
Because we have negotiated great prices with the ferry companies we are able to offer the best value for money possible.
For independent travellers, we can offer accommodation-only bookings. Most of our resorts are close to the international airports of Geneva, Grenoble, Chambery, Lyon or Turin - find out more about flying to the Alps.
We can also arrange competitive car hire.
What about Brexit? Find out about any additional requirements when driving in France from 1/1/21.

Please note that the supplements shown are calculated on the basis of our tour operator allocated space.

Miss the queues at the toll plazas and arrive on the slopes first.....
Sanef, the French motorway operator has now extended its Liber-t automatic toll payment service to UK motorists. To use the service all you need to do is register online and they will send you a small electronic transponder (or tag) that you attach to your windscreen just behind the rear-view mirror. As you approach the barriers, a device by the barrier will read your transponder (or tag), securely extract your unique reference and then automatically open the barrier without you having to stop.
