Advice on Transportation to Le Grand Bornand Aravis
There’s only one way to take public transport to Le Grand Bornand Aravis and that’s to first head to Annecy and take a connecting bus service from there. It’s possible and it’s cheap, but it’s a pain in the backside and can take ages. Or there’s the delightfully named ‘Bastard’ Taxi service, but you’ll be looking a cool €110 each way!
Public transport is really an imperfect option, which is why we recommend booking ahead to get the best prices, the comfiest seats and the fastest transfer time with a reliable airport transfer provider.
