TravelFlyAirportsGrenoble - The closest airport. 70km ... about 1 hour 30 minutes by car. Lyons - Next best ... about 30 mins further than Grenoble. Also consider Geneva, Chambery and Turin. TransfersUse http://www.bensbus.co.uk (or similar) Rent a car (there is plenty of parking space) Book a taxi-van from ATS http://www.a-t-s.net/ or www.alpine-transfer-company.com (expensive) Go by TransIsere bus http://www.transisere.fr/ via Grenoble bus station (only 13€ each way - this is how the locals do it)! Low Cost Airlineshttp://www.easyjet.com/en/book/index.asp http://www.ryanair.com/site/EN/ Drive We love to drive because it avoids the "sheep" mentality. Calais to Les2Alpes is about 12 hours non-stop. Usually we take 8 days and stay overnight in Grenoble. Then we can be in the mountains first thing on Saturday to get in a full day of skiing. http://www.eurotunnel.com TrainI have never done it - but the TGV is probably a good and relaxing option. Waterloo to Gare de Nord, taxi to Gare de Lyons and TGV direct Paris to Grenoble in under 3 hours. Then transfer to Les 2 Alpes. Here is http://www.eurostar.com for prices, etc.
