Can anyone help? My daughter is on a university ski trip to Tignes which ends on 20th December and then is joining us in Courchevel for Christmas.

I know there is a bus from Moutiers to Courchevel, is there a bus from Tignes to Moutiers? I have been on the Altibus web site, but it isn''t clear from there whether there is a bus or not. When it comes to it I don't want to waste a day driving from Courchevel to Tignes and back when I could be skiing.

Alternatively can anyone offer her a lift (she is only small although she does have her own skis).

Thanks

Paul

I doubt it, there will be one to Bourg and from there a bus or train to Moutiers would be easiest.

Its a couple of years since I've done it but the bus from Tignes to Geneva Airport always used to stop at Moutiers.

Tony - yet again you surprise. I thought your attitude would always be skiing before family, friends, job, etc :lol:

Don't forget, this lucky young lady is having a week in Tignes, followed by Christmas in Courchevel, probably both funded by daddy. A little hardship on the transfer would probably be good for her :twisted:

Let her make her own way Red - it'll be character forming :wink:

I agree - it would be a good test for here on 'Living in the Real World'. Rather than the cosy Family/State funded Uni life. You don't need a PHD to organise public transport.

Having said that - I have two daughters (albeit much young) and personal would do anything for them :roll:

All the possible options have been offered - other than sorting a 'private' transfer. There's a transfer service based in Bourg that I'm sure could help - PM me if you want details.
