Chauffeur's tipSchool campuses and estates around Rolle often have a specific gate or reception; tell us which entrance to use and your chauffeur will drive right up to it.
The route from Geneva Airport to Rolle
Your chauffeur joins the A1 motorway right next to the airport and follows it north-east along Lake Geneva, past Nyon and through the vineyards of La Côte. The Rolle exit is reached in around twenty-five minutes outside rush hour, and the town lies just below the motorway, on the shore. The whole trip stays in Switzerland, making it one of our simplest transfers.
Arriving in Rolle
The centre of Rolle is a long main street parallel to the lake, with the castle at its western end and the small Île de la Harpe just offshore. Your driver drops you at your hotel, home or office, or at the entrance of a school or private estate. Wine villages such as Mont-sur-Rolle, Perroy and Bursins sit on the slopes nearby and are easy to reach for tastings or a stay in the vineyards.
Practical advice for your transfer
Families arriving at the start or end of a school term often travel with trunks and many bags: in that case, choose the Mercedes V-Class van, which carries up to seven passengers and ten bags. For a lighter trip, the E-Class sedan takes three passengers with three bags, and the S-Class offers First Class comfort. Child seats are provided on request. With AirportsTransfers.ch your flight is tracked, so your chauffeur adapts to any delay, and you can book the return trip at the same time.
