Traveling to Annecy with a group is often the highlight of a trip to France. Known as the Venice of the Alps, this stunning town sits perfectly between a crystal-clear lake and towering mountains. However, organising transport for a group in a region defined by its geography can feel daunting for international visitors. Whether you are arriving for a corporate retreat, a wedding, or a sightseeing holiday, the logistics of moving people through mountain roads and busy town centres require local expertise.
Our company specialises in providing reliable coach hire and minibus rental with driver services specifically for international travellers. We understand that you need more than just a vehicle; you need the peace of mind that comes from knowing your transport is managed by professionals. From the moment you request a quote, your planning is handled personally by our team in France, often Coralie or Arnaud, who ensure that every detail of your itinerary is feasible and efficient. You can relax and enjoy the scenery while we handle the driving.
We offer a comprehensive range of transport solutions adaptable to any group size. Annecy is a hub for various types of travel, and our services reflect this diversity. We regularly assist corporate groups attending seminars who require punctual shuttles between their hotels and conference venues. We also support leisure groups who want to explore the historical sights of the Old Town or the natural beauty of the surrounding peaks without the stress of navigating public transport or finding parking for multiple cars.
Our drivers are experienced professionals who are accustomed to the specific driving conditions of the Haute-Savoie region. Whether it is navigating the narrow streets near the lake or driving safely on winding mountain roads during winter or summer, safety is our priority. By booking a private coach or minibus, your group remains together, ensuring that no one gets lost and that everyone arrives at the destination simultaneously and comfortably.

Our network allows us to provide a fleet of vehicles perfectly suited to the varying group sizes we welcome in Annecy. For smaller groups or family gatherings, we offer modern minibuses that provide a more intimate travel experience. These vehicles are agile and ideal for navigating the sometimes tighter roads around the lake. For larger groups, such as school trips, corporate seminars, or tour groups, we provide mid-size coaches and full-size touring coaches.
Typically, the coaches in France range from 16 to 57 seats. Occasionally, depending on the specific fleet of our local partners, we can source vehicles with up to 61 or 63 seats. Regardless of the category, the vehicle provided will always be suitable for your group size and luggage requirements. We pay close attention to the amount of equipment you have, especially for ski or hiking trips, to ensure the luggage compartments are adequate. You can travel with confidence knowing the vehicle has been selected to match your specific needs.
Excursion Around Lake Annecy
A tour around Lake Annecy is an absolute must for any visitor. We can arrange a coach to take your group on a scenic drive around the lake, stopping at picturesque villages like Veyrier-du-Lac and Menthon-Saint-Bernard. This is a relaxing way to see the area from different angles without the fatigue of cycling or walking the entire perimeter. You can plan stops for photos, a coffee break, or a visit to a castle. We help you estimate the correct timing so your group can enjoy the views at a leisurely pace.
Day Trip to Geneva and CERN in Meyrin
Located just an hour away, Geneva offers a fantastic cultural excursion. We can take your group across the border to explore the international city of Geneva and visit the fascinating CERN in Meyrin. Visiting the Globe of Science and Innovation is a highlight for student groups and science enthusiasts. Our drivers are accustomed to crossing the border, and we will advise you on the necessary timing to ensure you arrive at your scheduled visit slots on time. It is a seamless way to add a Swiss dimension to your French holiday.
Hiking Day Trip to La Clusaz or Le Grand Bornand
For groups who want to experience the high Alps, we recommend a day trip to the resorts of La Clusaz or Le Grand Bornand. In summer, these villages are perfect starting points for hiking; in winter, they are world-class ski destinations. Your driver will transport you safely into the Aravis mountain range. We can arrange for the driver to wait for the group or return to collect you at the end of the day, depending on your schedule. This flexibility allows you to enjoy the fresh mountain air and physical activity while we handle the driving on the winding mountain passes.
Booking your transport with us is designed to be as simple and reassuring as possible.
1. Request a Quote: Send us your itinerary details, including dates, group size, and specific destinations in or around Annecy.

Where will the driver meet us at the airport? We will provide you with specific instructions on where to meet your driver based on your arrival terminal at Geneva, Lyon, or Chambery. We communicate this information well in advance so your group knows exactly where to go after collecting luggage.
What happens if our train to Annecy is delayed? If your train to Annecy or Lyon is delayed, please inform us as soon as possible. Our drivers track schedules where possible, but direct communication helps us manage the driver's waiting time or arrange a solution if the delay is significant.
Are the roads to ski resorts safe for coaches? Yes, the drivers we work with are experienced in mountain driving and the vehicles are equipped for winter conditions when necessary. We take safety very seriously and adjust travel times to account for mountain road conditions.
Can the coach pick us up directly at our hotel in the pedestrian zone? Annecy has a large pedestrian zone where coaches cannot enter. In these cases, we will designate the closest safe pick-up point to your accommodation and ensure you have clear directions on how to reach it.
How far in advance should we book for a summer trip? Annecy is extremely popular in the summer and during winter ski holidays. We recommend booking as early as possible to secure the best vehicle for your group size, ideally several months in advance.
