Private chauffeur in Annecy
The Venice of the Alps, 45 minutes from Geneva
Annecy is one of the most admired towns in the French Alps: the canals of the Thiou, a medieval old town and a lake widely considered the purest in Europe create an unrivalled setting. Fifty-three kilometres from Geneva Airport, it is the natural destination for international travellers looking for beauty and tranquillity between flights.
Swiss Limo handles the cross-border transfer from GVA seamlessly, and offers onward links to Megève, Chamonix and Lyon Saint-Exupéry. A compact town with an international reach — world-renowned animation festival, French Tech Alpes ecosystem, Michelin-starred gastronomy — Annecy deserves a service at its level.
