Turin Airport to Bardonecchia Ski Transfers Private Cars & Minibuses to the Susa Valley, from £299 per vehicle

Fixed-price ski transfers from Turin Airport to Bardonecchia

Bardonecchia is a border town, and most people reach it at the end of a long day. The valley road up from the motorway is straightforward in daylight. In falling snow, after dark, with a week of kit to move, it is a different proposition entirely.

Hand that stretch to somebody who drives it all winter and the hard part of the day becomes theirs. They are tracking your inbound flight before you have cleared passport control. Your kit goes in the back at the terminal and comes out again at your front door. You settle the fare at the point you book it, and that is the end of the matter.

Private car from £299 · 7-seat minibus from £332 · Free cancellation up to 24 hours before travel · Prices are indicative. Check hoppa.com for live prices.

What Bardonecchia travellers ask before they book

Two questions do most of the work here: whether to take the train, and which of the hamlets your bed is actually in.

Bardonecchia transfers, answered quickly

Which airport should I fly into for Bardonecchia?

Turin. You are about 105 km and an hour and a quarter out, from £299, and you get the nearest gateway and the cheapest at every vehicle size in the same airport. Malpensa opens at £605 and Bergamo at £820.

How far is Bardonecchia from Turin Airport?

About 105 km and roughly an hour and a quarter. You take the A32 motorway almost the whole way west up the Susa valley, and the town has its own signed exit, so you get no mountain road tacked on at the end.

Is there a shared shuttle from Turin Airport to Bardonecchia?

No. hoppa sells private vehicles on this route: car, MPV, minibus or coach. The fare covers the whole vehicle rather than a seat in it, so a 7-seat minibus at £332 divides further than most people expect.

Can I get the train to Bardonecchia?

Yes, and unusually for a ski resort it goes to the town itself rather than to a valley below it. The station is on the Turin to Modane line and the modern half of the town grew up around it. You lose that advantage with ski bags on a connection, a flight that lands after the last service, or a bed in one of the outlying hamlets.

How much is a transfer from Turin Airport to Bardonecchia?

You pay £299 for a private car and £332 for a 7-seat minibus. Every vehicle up to eight seats sits between those and £414. Prices are indicative. Check hoppa.com for live prices.

Why is flying into France more expensive when it looks closer?

The Fréjus Tunnel is a tolled international crossing, so the fares price the border rather than the distance. You pay £908 from Lyon against £605 from Malpensa, and Lyon is the nearer of the two. Bergamo is further than both and still opens at £820.

How long does the driver wait if the flight is late?

You get up to 60 minutes of free waiting after your scheduled landing, plus a 30-minute buffer on international arrivals. Turin is a small enough terminal that you will reach the meeting point long before that runs down. The number worth getting right on your booking is the flight number.

Which vehicle fits my group?

How many people and how much luggage fit in each vehicle?

Vehicle categories include Sedan, Business Sedan, Minivan, Business Minivan, Minibus and Bus. Each has a strict insured maximum for passengers and luggage that drivers must adhere to. Default luggage allowance is one 24-inch suitcase per passenger. Bags larger than 24″ count as two pieces. Choose a category that fits both your party and your bags.

Will I get the exact car shown in the picture?

Vehicle images are for illustration only. You're booking a category, not a specific model, and we may upgrade you to a higher category at no extra charge if your selected one isn't available.

Can I add a child seat for my baby or toddler?

Yes. We offer infant carriers, baby seats and boosters depending on your supplier and route. Add the seat type you need during booking so it can be confirmed in advance.

How much does a child seat cost?

The first child seat in your booking is included free. Any additional seats may carry a fee from the supplier. The exact amount is shown in your booking quote before you pay, so there are no surprises.

I forgot to request a child seat: can I add it after booking?

Yes. Contact customer service as soon as possible to add it to your booking. Late requests are honoured subject to availability, so the sooner you ask, the better. Important: no refund or replacement applies if a driver arrives without a seat that wasn't requested in time.

Is my child seat guaranteed once I've added it to my booking?

If you've added the seat at the time of booking, it's confirmed with your transport supplier. Seats requested after the booking is placed are subject to availability. If a seat ends up unavailable on arrival because it wasn't requested in time, no refund applies.

Can I bring a pet or service animal?

Yes, at no extra charge. Notify us at booking so the right vehicle is allocated. Important: animals count toward the vehicle's passenger capacity, so a 5-seat vehicle with two pets has three human seats.

Do you have wheelchair-accessible options?

Yes. Note any accessibility need (wheelchair, mobility scooter, special assistance) in the booking comments. We work with specialised partners and make reasonable efforts to accommodate.

What if my flight is delayed?

Will my driver wait if my flight is late?

Yes. Your driver waits up to 60 minutes free on airport pickups. International flights add a 30-minute buffer on top, so the free waiting period starts after that buffer ends.

What if my flight is delayed by more than 2 hours?

A delay that long may mean your transfer has to be rescheduled, so call the number on your e-ticket as soon as you know. Customer service will coordinate a new pickup time with the driver. If your driver cannot pick you up as scheduled, your order is cancelled without charge.

What if my flight is cancelled entirely?

Your transfer is cancelled free of charge. Contact customer service immediately so we can update the booking.

What if my flight is diverted to a different airport?

Contact us immediately. We'll do our best to reschedule your pickup, though we can't guarantee a free transfer if the new airport is in a different region or significantly further from your destination.

Where will I meet my driver?

24 hours before pickup we send a final SMS or WhatsApp with the exact meeting point and your driver's contact details. Meet & greet at the arrival gate is available on request, subject to airport policy. If it is not possible at the gate, we'll assign an alternative meeting point.

What if I'm stuck inside the airport (luggage, immigration)?

Use the emergency number on your e-ticket to call the driver or local supplier and let them know you're still in the terminal. The driver will wait through their free period and, if reached in time, can sometimes extend.

What counts as a no-show?

Not appearing within the free waiting period and being unreachable for additional time. No-shows are charged in full and non-refundable.

Best price & current deals

Where can I find a discount code?

Active offers are applied automatically when you search. There's nothing to enter manually. To see what's currently running, check our discount codes page or our homepage banner.

Should I book early?

Yes. We recommend booking at least 24 hours in advance for the best vehicle selection. Bookings within 24 hours are subject to availability and may carry an expedited service fee. Booking early also locks in today's price.

Is there a low-deposit option?

On selected services and destinations, yes. Pay a deposit now and the balance before your travel date. If the balance isn't paid in time the booking auto-cancels and the deposit is forfeited. Note: low-deposit bookings can't be paid with hoppa Credits.

What is Refund Protect?

An optional add-on at checkout from our partner Refund Protect. If you (or anyone in your party) can't attend for a covered reason, you receive 100% of your booking back. Refund Protect's decision is final. See their full terms when adding the option.

Can I use hoppa Credits from a previous booking?

Yes. hoppa Credits apply automatically to your next booking when you log in with the same email. They expire 12 months after issue, can't be transferred between accounts, and can't be combined with low-deposit bookings.

Can I cancel and get a refund?

Yes, depending on timing and vehicle size. Up to 7 seats: free cancellation more than 24 hours before pickup; 100% charge within 24 hours. 8–14 seats: free outside 48 hours. 16+ seats: free outside 14 days, 50% within 14–7 days, 100% within 7 days. Approved refunds reach your original payment method in 5 to 7 business days.

What goes wrong on the road to Bardonecchia, and how to avoid it

Most of these come from the same two things: assuming the town is one place, and assuming the nearest airport is the cheapest one.

Challenge Solution How do we solve it?
You book to "Bardonecchia" and you are staying in Melezet Give the hamlet and the street, not just the town. The commune takes in Les Arnauds, Melezet, Millaures, Le Gleise, Beaulard, Grange Horres, La Rho and Rochemolles, spread along four valleys. They are all the same name on your booking and different roads.
You fly into Lyon for the shorter line on the map Price the ground before you book the seat. You pay £908 from Lyon and £605 from Malpensa for a longer journey. The Fréjus Tunnel is a tolled border. Turin is £299.
There are nine of you and you book one ten-seat minibus Price two eight-seat minibuses against it first. Eight seats is £414 and ten is £892. Two smaller vehicles often come in under the single larger one and they arrive together.
You take the train and arrive with the ski bags at 23:00 Check the last connection before you rely on it. The line does reach the town, which is why this catches people out. It is the connection at Turin and the walk at the far end with boot bags that go wrong, not the route.
You assume the motorway means a mountain road at the end There isn't one, and it changes your timing. The A32 exit is at the town on the valley floor. Budget an hour and a quarter rather than the two hours a resort at this altitude usually needs, and book the pickup accordingly.
Your flight slips and the plan comes apart The driver watches the aircraft, not the clock. Put the flight number on the booking. You get up to 60 minutes of free waiting after your scheduled landing, and international arrivals add another 30.

Why do Bardonecchia travellers choose a private transfer with hoppa?

You get an easy road and a complicated address. The A32 runs to the town's own exit, so you drive motorway rather than mountain. An hour and a quarter is an hour and a quarter. Your last two minutes are what take local knowledge. The commune scatters across four valleys and eight named hamlets, and "Bardonecchia" on your booking covers all of them.

What you buy here is the whole vehicle. The figure is settled before you leave home. A Saturday queue at the tunnel end of the valley then costs the driver an afternoon and costs you nothing. You land at one passenger terminal at Turin Caselle. Give your booking the flight number and your driver meets the aircraft you are actually on.

hoppa works with 70,000+ vetted local fleet providers across 182+ countries and 2,600+ airports and resorts, and has carried 40M+ travellers. On this route that buys you a driver who knows Melezet from Millaures. He takes you to the door, not to the station and a guess.

  With a standard ride app When you book with hoppa
Two or three of you There are two of you, so you book the smallest vehicle. You read the whole table first. The car is £299 and the seven-seat minibus is £332, so about thirty pounds separates the smallest vehicle from one more than twice the size.
Four to seven of you You match the seat count to the head count and stop looking. You take the 7-seat minibus at £332. It undercuts the four-seat MPV at £342 and the five-seat at £390, and every seat carries a bag allowance.
Nine or more of you You book the ten-seater, the next vehicle up the list. You price two eight-seaters at £414 each against one ten-seater at £892. Eight seats is the last rung before the ladder changes level, and the comparison takes a minute.
A club, a school year or a chalet takeover You book minibuses again, the way you booked them last year. You look at the coach. Twenty-three seats is £1,347 and thirty-six is £1,587, so above sixteen people you get the cheaper vehicle and the simpler one in one booking.
Staying out in the hamlets You put "Bardonecchia" on the booking and sort the rest out on arrival. You give the hamlet, the street and the property. Melezet, Les Arnauds and Rochemolles are separate places up separate valleys, and only one of them has your bed in it.
Arriving from a French airport You pick the airport that looks nearest on the map. You compare the ground fares first. Lyon is £908 and Malpensa is £605 for a longer drive, so the Italian side is cheaper even when it is further.

How long is the transfer from Turin Airport to Bardonecchia?

About an hour and a quarter for roughly 105 km. Nearly all of it is motorway. Turin Airport sits north of the city at Caselle. You pick up the ring road, join the A32 and head west up the Susa valley, past Susa and the Oulx exit, to Bardonecchia's own.

You get no climb at the end of it. Almost every resort at this altitude hands you one. The town is on the valley floor at 1,312 m and the motorway comes to it. Your slow days are Saturdays in January. The whole valley changes over and the last stretch towards the tunnel fills up.

Malpensa, Bergamo and Lyon put you on a different order of journey. Each one is at least twice the drive. All three work for you. None of them is cheap.

Route Drive time Approx. cost per vehicle Vehicle type
Turin Airport (TRN) → Bardonecchia ~1 hr 15 £299–£1,587private car to 8-seat minibus Private car · 3 seats
Milan Malpensa (MXP) → Bardonecchia ~2 hr 30 £605–£3,087private car to 8-seat minibus Private car · 3 seats
Bergamo (BGY) → Bardonecchia ~3 hr £820–£3,683private car to 8-seat minibus Private car · 3 seats
Lyon Saint-Exupéry (LYS) → Bardonecchia ~2 hr 45 £908–£3,715private car to 8-seat minibus Private car · 3 seats

Please note: Each row runs from the cheapest private car to the largest coach, so the upper figure is a 36-seat vehicle rather than a surcharge on the lower one. Read the rows against each other rather than in order. Lyon gives you the shorter journey and the dearer fare, and the Fréjus Tunnel is why. Prices are indicative.

How much is a Bardonecchia transfer?

From £299 for a private car out of Turin Airport. Up to eight people, the class you pick barely moves what you pay. So take the one that fits the luggage.

Your ninth seat moves it. Ten seats costs more than twice what eight costs. So at nine, ten or eleven people, price two eight-seaters against one larger vehicle before you book either.

Then there is the border. Turin is the nearest gateway and the cheapest at every size. Lyon is the second nearest and the dearest of the alternatives. The Fréjus Tunnel is a tolled international crossing, not a shortcut. Malpensa is further away than Lyon and still opens lower. Bergamo is further again and sits between the two. The border is what prices this route, not the distance.

You pay per vehicle rather than per person, and nothing moves after you pay.

Each seat comes with a bag allowance. Say how many skis and boards you are bringing when you book. The driver then arrives in something that fits them. The full list of what each vehicle carries is on hoppa's vehicle types page, and child seats and other extras are on vehicle extras. Prices are indicative. Check hoppa.com for live prices.

Vehicle type Max passengers Luggage capacity Why choose this option? Estimated price (one-way)
Private car Up to 3 3 bags You pay £299 for two seats, £330 for three. Your cheapest way into the town, about thirty pounds under the seven-seat minibus. From From £299
7-seat minibus Up to 7 One bag per seat You get seven people and seven bags for £332, under both the four-seat MPV and the five-seat one. Read this row before any MPV row. From From £332
Private MPV Up to 5 5 bags You pay £342 for four seats, £390 for five. Book it for the boot shape and the lower step, never for the price. From From £342
Executive car Up to 3 3 bags You get a higher-spec car and driver for £354. Take the executive MPV at £426 if five of you need the room. From From £354
8-seat minibus Up to 8 One bag per seat £414, your last vehicle before the price changes level. You pay £416 for a five-seat minibus, so eight seats cost you less than five. From From £414
Large minibus 10 to 16 One bag per seat Ten seats £892, twelve £904, fourteen £928, sixteen £1,108. Price two eight-seaters against the ten before you book it. From From £892
Coach 23 to 36 One bag per seat Twenty-three seats £1,347, thirty-six £1,587. Above sixteen people you pay less per seat here than on anything else. From From £1,347

Read this before you book the flight:

  • Fly into Italy. Turin is the nearest gateway and the cheapest at every vehicle size. You pay more from the French airports for shorter journeys. The Fréjus Tunnel is a tolled border, not a shortcut.
  • Then find out which hamlet you are sleeping in. Melezet, Les Arnauds, Beaulard and Rochemolles are all "Bardonecchia" on your booking, and all up different valleys. Your address is the only part of this transfer that is genuinely easy to get wrong.
  • And count your party. Eight or fewer and the vehicles sit in one narrow band. Take whichever one fits the luggage.

How to book your Bardonecchia transfer

Takes less than 200 seconds to complete.
Book Now
1

Give the airport and the hamlet

Turin Airport for almost everyone. Then name the hamlet, not just the town. Melezet, Les Arnauds, Beaulard and Rochemolles are all Bardonecchia on a booking and all up different valleys.

2

Count the party before you pick the vehicle

Eight or fewer and everything costs between £299 and £414. Nine or more and you should price two eight-seaters against one ten-seater at £892.

3

Declare the skis, boards and any child seats

Every seat carries a bag allowance, but ski and board bags have to be declared so the right vehicle is sent. The first child seat is free and has to be requested at booking.

4

Add the flight number and pay the fixed fare

The driver tracks the aircraft, so a delay is handled rather than charged. Cancel free up to 24 hours before travel on any vehicle up to seven seats; 8–14 seaters need 48 hours and 16-seaters and coaches need 14 days.

How else can you get to Bardonecchia?

The train genuinely works here. Most ski resorts cannot say that. Bardonecchia sits on the Turin to Modane line at the Italian mouth of the Fréjus rail tunnel. The station is in the town, not in a valley below it. The modern half of the town grew up around it.

So the comparison is real rather than a formality. The train wins on cost. It loses on three things. You change at Turin with boot bags. A late flight can land after the last service. And a bed up one of the side valleys leaves you at a station that solves nothing.

Transport option Indicative price to Bardonecchia Journey time What's included / what to watch for
hoppa private car (Turin to Bardonecchia) From £299 per vehicle ~1 hr 15 · 105 km The straightforward booking. Three seats and three ski bags, terminal to the door of the property, for £299.
hoppa 7-seat minibus (Turin to Bardonecchia) From £332 per vehicle ~1 hr 15 · 105 km Your best value by some way. Seven seats and seven bags for £332, under the four-seat MPV.
hoppa 8-seat minibus (Turin to Bardonecchia) From £414 per vehicle ~1 hr 15 · 105 km The last rung on the flat. £414 for eight seats. Two of these is the comparison to run at nine or ten people.
hoppa coach (Turin to Bardonecchia) From £1,347 per vehicle at 23 seats ~1 hr 15 · 105 km The big-group answer. Thirty-six seats is £1,587, which is cheaper per seat than any minibus above sixteen.
Train from Turin to Bardonecchia station Lowest cost, per person Regular services up the valley, into the town itself The genuine alternative on this route, and the station is in the town. The cost is the connection from the airport and the walk at the far end with ski bags.

Hire car from Turin Airport Daily rate, plus fuel, motorway tolls, winter tyres and parking ~1 hr 15 on a clear day The easiest drive of any resort on this stretch of the Alps, and still a week of parking in a town where the lifts are walkable.

What should you know about skiing Bardonecchia?

Bardonecchia sits at 1,312 m on the valley floor, ringed by peaks that pass 3,000 m. The skiing splits into sectors reached from different points around the town. Colomion, Les Arnauds and Melezet go from one. Jafferau above the town goes from another. Your nearest sector depends on which hamlet you sleep in. Your address decides your mornings and your transfer together.

The town hosted the snowboarding events at the 2006 Turin Olympics. That halfpipe and boardercross history still shapes what gets built here. You get a town with a life outside the season, which most of this valley lacks. It was a customs and railway town long before it was a ski one.

It is not part of the Via Lattea. Sauze d'Oulx, Sestriere and Cesana Torinese sit 25 to 55 km back east down the same motorway. They share a lift pass with each other, not with here. Put your actual destination on the booking, not the name of the ski area.

Not settled on the resort yet? The best ski resorts in Italy guide puts it next to its Piedmont neighbours. The top ski resorts in Europe guide casts wider. The town sits at 1,312 m, low for the Alps. So the best time to go skiing is worth a look before you pick your week.

Your Bardonecchia arrival guide, from the terminal to the first lift

Turin Airport is small, single-terminal and quick to clear. The road from it is motorway all the way to the town's own exit. Four tabs follow. Getting ski bags out of Caselle. The run west up the Susa valley. Finding the right hamlet at the end of it. And the two things to settle first: which country you fly into, and how many of you there are.

Ski-goers' arrival guide to Bardonecchia

Everything from wheels down to the first gondola out of town.

One terminal, and ski bags come out separately

You clear one passenger terminal at Caselle, so you have no inter-terminal transfer to plan and no landside walk worth mentioning. Clear passport control, then go straight to the oversize baggage point rather than standing at the belt. Your ski and board bags come out separately here as at most alpine gateways, and waiting at the carousel for them is the usual reason a transfer starts late.

Where your driver is

Your driver meets you inside the arrivals hall with your name on a board. You get up to 60 minutes of free waiting after your scheduled landing, and international arrivals add another 30, so a slow bag or a long queue at control is already covered. Put the flight number on the booking and your driver tracks the aircraft rather than the scheduled time.

If you land late

You pay a night surcharge between 22:00 and 08:00 local time, and you see it before you pay rather than after. Book within 24 hours of travel and you pay an expedited booking fee. A late landing is the point at which the railway stops being an alternative for you, so check which side of the last service your flight falls.

A hundred and five kilometres, and almost all motorway

You leave Caselle on the ring road round the north of Turin, pick up the A32 and run west up the Susa valley through the tunnels and viaducts that carry the road towards the French border. You pass Susa, then the Oulx exit for Sauze d'Oulx and the Via Lattea, and carry on to Bardonecchia's own exit at the head of the valley.

No climb at the end

This is what makes your journey unusual for a resort at this altitude. You come off the motorway at the town itself, on the valley floor at 1,312 m, so you have no hairpins to allow for. You arrive in an hour and a quarter rather than the two hours the mountains suggest.

Winter equipment is the law, not a precaution

You need winter tyres or chains on board on this road in season. Your driver's vehicle carries them as a matter of course. In a hire car you carry the responsibility yourself, and the fines are real.

Bardonecchia is eight places with one name

The commune takes in the town plus Les Arnauds, Melezet, Millaures, Le Gleise, Beaulard, Grange Horres, La Rho and Rochemolles, spread along the four valleys that meet here. You get "Bardonecchia" on your booking for all of them. Only one of them has your bed in it, so give your driver the hamlet, the street and the property name.

The station is in the town, which is why this catches people

Arrive by rail and you will feel you have solved the address problem. The station really is in the middle of the modern half of the town. You have solved it only if you are staying there. Melezet and Les Arnauds are up the side valley and Rochemolles is up another one, and none of them is a walk with boot bags.

Which sector you ski from depends on where you slept

You reach the Colomion, Les Arnauds and Melezet side from one point and Jafferau above the town from another. The hamlet you book into decides which one is your morning walk. Work that out before you choose the accommodation rather than after.

Choose the country before you choose the airport

You pay £299 from Turin and get there in about an hour and a quarter. You pay £605 from Malpensa, £820 from Bergamo and £908 from Lyon on a shorter drive than Malpensa. The Fréjus Tunnel is a tolled international crossing, so the fares follow the border rather than the distance. Find the flight into Italy anywhere near the French one on price and take it.

Count the party

You pay between £299 and £414 for anything up to eight seats. The ten-seat minibus is £892. With nine, ten or eleven of you, price two eight-seat minibuses at £414 each against the single larger vehicle before you book either.

If you need an answer from a person

Support runs 24/7 on chat, email and phone, picking up in an average of 11 seconds with a 99.7% answer rate. The hoppa help centre has the written version if you would rather not wait for one. Anything needing resolution after the journey has to reach customer service within 30 days of the date of service.

What to expect on the road to Bardonecchia

You get one motorway, no climb, and two decisions that cost you money: which country you fly into and which hamlet you name. Both follow here.

Can I cancel or change my hoppa transfer?

Yes, though cancelling and changing work differently.

Cancel in time and you get a full refund. The window depends on the size of vehicle you booked:

  • 7-seater and below: cancel at least 24 hours before pick-up.
  • 8 to 14 seater: cancel at least 48 hours before pick-up.
  • 16 seater and above: cancel at least 14 days before pick-up. Cancel between 7 and 14 days out and you get half the booking value back.

Refunds reach your original payment method in 5 to 7 business days.

Changes are narrower. You can update passenger names, contact numbers, passenger count and luggage count, as long as your party still fits the vehicle you booked. Anything else means cancelling and booking again at the current price. That covers a new pick-up time, a different address or a different vehicle.

Extras are more flexible. Up to 24 hours before pick-up you can adjust things like child seat details or the name on the pick-up sign.

If your flight is cancelled, contact hoppa straight away. You get a full refund on a ride you no longer need. Booking inside 24 hours of travel is still possible, though an expedited booking fee applies.

Is hoppa transfer reliable?

Yes. hoppa has moved more than 40 million travellers through 2,600+ airports and resorts across 182+ countries, working with a network of 70,000+ vetted local fleet providers. hoppa is trusted by Mastercard and UnionPay as the mobility infrastructure layer for agentic travel.

On the Turin Airport (TRN) to Bardonecchia route that reliability is practical, not abstract. Your driver tracks your inbound flight, so a delay moves your pickup rather than losing it. You get up to 60 minutes of free waiting time, plus a 30 minute buffer on international arrivals. If a delay runs more than 2 hours past your scheduled arrival, call the number on your e-ticket and hoppa will coordinate a new pickup time. If something does go wrong, hoppa's support team answers in an average of 11 seconds, 24/7, across chat, email and phone, with a 99.7% call answer rate.

Every vehicle on this route is operated by a vetted local company that drives the mountain roads all winter. The price you agree at booking is the price you pay, with no surcharge for snow, traffic or a late landing.

Can an AI assistant book hoppa?

Yes. hoppa is built as a global mobility platform that powers agentic transactions, which means an AI assistant can search, price and book a transfer on your behalf.

That is why hoppa is trusted by Mastercard and UnionPay as the mobility infrastructure layer for agentic travel. Fixed, all-in pricing and a structured inventory of 70,000+ vetted local fleet providers give an AI agent something unambiguous to act on: one price, one vehicle, one confirmed pickup.

Ask your assistant for a Turin Airport (TRN) to Bardonecchia transfer and it can return live availability, vehicle sizes and a fixed price without you opening a booking form.

Book your Bardonecchia ski transfer with hoppa

The road to Bardonecchia is the easy part. Motorway from Turin to the town's own exit, no climb, an hour and a quarter. The address is what goes wrong. Eight hamlets up four valleys all answer to Bardonecchia. Say the word at a taxi rank and you can still end up several kilometres and one dark valley short of your bed.

Name the hamlet when you book and that stops being your problem. Your driver takes you to the door with the skis still in the boot, and the fare you agreed is the fare you pay.

Put a vehicle on the booking now and arrive in Bardonecchia with nothing left to work out.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need winter tyres or snow chains to reach Bardonecchia?

In a hire car, yes. Winter equipment is a legal requirement on this road in season and the fines are real. In a pre-booked transfer it is not your problem: the vehicle is equipped as a matter of course.

How high is Bardonecchia?

The town is at 1,312 m on the valley floor, which is low for an Alpine resort and is why the motorway reaches it without a climb. The skiing above it runs a long way higher, and the surrounding peaks pass 3,000 m.

What time should I book the transfer back to Turin Airport?

Work backwards from your flight. Allow an hour and a quarter for the drive, add the two hours most airlines ask for at check-in, and book the pickup for that time. Your driver waits up to 15 minutes free from the booked pickup time on a departure run, so being ready early costs you nothing.

There are nine of us. Should we book one minibus or two?

Price both. The ten-seat minibus is £892 and an eight-seat minibus is £414, so two smaller vehicles frequently come in under one larger one and they arrive at the same time.

Why is the seven-seat minibus cheaper than the four-seat MPV?

Every vehicle up to eight seats on this route is priced between £299 and £416, so the order follows what operators have available rather than the seat count. The minibus is £332 and the MPV is £342. Price the lot before you choose.

Which hamlets are included in Bardonecchia?

Les Arnauds, Melezet, Millaures, Le Gleise, Beaulard, Grange Horres, La Rho and Rochemolles, plus the town itself. They spread along four valleys and they are one name on a booking, so give your driver the hamlet and the street.

Is Bardonecchia part of the Via Lattea?

No. The Via Lattea links Sauze d'Oulx, San Sicario, Cesana, Sestriere and Montgenèvre on one pass, and Bardonecchia has its own ski area and its own pass. They are 25 km or more apart down the same motorway.

How long will the driver wait if my flight is delayed?

You get up to 60 minutes of free waiting after your scheduled landing, and international arrivals add a 30-minute buffer on top. Put the flight number on the booking and your driver watches the aircraft.

Can I cancel or change my transfer?

Yes. You cancel free up to 24 hours before travel in anything up to seven seats, 48 hours before in an 8 to 14 seater, and 14 days before in a 16-seater or above. Change it through your booking confirmation or with support.

Do you carry skis, snowboards and boot bags?

Yes, and every seat comes with a bag allowance. Ski and board bags have to be declared at booking so the right vehicle is assigned. A party that adds them at the kerb is the usual reason a transfer goes wrong.

Are child seats available?

Yes. The first child seat is free and must be requested at booking. Child seats count towards the vehicle's passenger allowance, as do pets and service animals.

Are the prices on this page what I will pay?

They are indicative and per vehicle rather than per person. Your actual fare is fixed at the moment you book and does not move afterwards. Check hoppa.com for live prices.
