A chauffeur’s advice

What we know about Grenoble Alpes-Isère Airport

  • The airport has three separate buildings (Departures, Arrivals, Business Aviation): check which one is given for the pick-up so the chauffeur goes to the right place.
  • In winter, the roads up to the resorts (Alpe d’Huez, Les Deux Alpes) can require snow tyres or chains; a properly equipped private chauffeur spares travellers that.
