Geneva International Airport (GVA) is one of the busiest airports in Europe. It's a major hub for airlines such as EasyJet, Transavia, KLM, and British Airways.

Over 13 million passengers arrive at Geneva airport each year and it has more than 120 direct international flight destinations.

During the winter Geneva is without a doubt the most popular airport - used by skiers and snowboarders travelling to ski resorts such as Tignes, Les Arcs and Méribel.

It's situated between the Jura mountain range and the huge Lake of Geneva (or Lac Léman). So, which ever way you approach, the landing view from the aircraft is spectacular.

The airport has a legal responsibility to the environment and has set high objectives - check out Geneva airport's environmental page.

Geneva airport is around 4 kilometres from the centre of the city of Geneva, Genève in French (pronounced Jen-ev).

It's easy to travel between the airport and the city by bus or train and only takes 5 minutes. The city centre is beautiful and is a nice way to spend a morning if you have some spare time.

The train station is just outside the main terminal - it takes about 5 minutes to walk there. It's an easy walk, with escalators down to the platforms.

Trains to the city centre are extremely frequent. They arrive at Geneva's central station - Gare Cornavin - which is the first stop.

   The professionalism of Mountain Rescue’s service was 100%.
We have used Mountain Rescue 3 or 4 times previously and as usual, Hristina, our driver, stopped at Albertville for a coffee/loo break. All their drivers over the years have been great and Hristina allowed us, her tired passengers, to relax when we wanted. She asked whether we wanted the a/c on or off and similar with music. She was very attentive to our needs.
We have used Mountain Rescue in Winter and Summers seasons and have always been aware that if needed, one of the office team will always be available by phone or email. They have also always allowed plenty of time for the transfers due to road blocks or other disruptions and on one occasion last year when the roads were particularly bad, an alternative route was planned and worked really well.
We will be back and Hristina was easily worthy of being tipped.

   This is my first time using the services of Mountain Rescue and I am impressed.  Hristina (the driver) came even a little earlier than the agreed time, although it was very early in the morning. The van was clean and comfortable and the ride smooth. The entire booking organization was of an extremely high standard. Highly recommend to anyone looking for reliability, attitude and comfort.

   We have used Mountain Rescue 8 times annually over the last 9 years. Each time the service has been exemplary. The cars are comfortable and spacious with room for all the family plus equipment. Drivers arrive on time and drive well. The whole service is smooth and reassuring. I see no reason to call anyone else, unless MRT has no availability for a given time/date.

   A great service.  Private shuttles are not cheap, but worth every penny.
