Flat-rate taxi transfer between Lyon-Saint Exupéry Airport (LYS) and Geneva, Switzerland. Official rate homologated by the Rhône prefecture, Swiss motorway vignette included, real-time flight tracking.
The journey between Lyon-Saint Exupéry Airport and Geneva mainly follows the A40 motorway (known as the "White Highway"). After approximately 110 km on French territory, crossing the border at the Bardonnex post marks the entry into Switzerland. From there, the Swiss N1/A1 motorway reaches central Geneva in 15 additional minutes.
Outside peak hours and ski-resort return Saturdays (January-March), expect about 1h45 of travel time. At peak times, allow up to 2h15 or even 2h30. Our driver monitors traffic in real time and adjusts the route if necessary (via Bellegarde if Bardonnex border is congested).
Main entry point to Switzerland. Control usually quick (1-3 minutes), longer on Saturdays in season. Valid ID card or passport required.
Mandatory upon entering Switzerland (40 CHF, valid one year). All our vehicles carry the valid annual vignette — no extra charge.
The A40 crosses the Pays de Gex, sometimes snowy in winter. Our vehicles are equipped with winter tyres from November to March, in compliance with the French Mountain Law II.
