Chauffeur's tipIf you are heading on to Annecy or the Alps after Saint-Julien, book the full journey: the town sits right on the motorway, so an extra stop adds very little time.
The route from Geneva Airport to Saint-Julien-en-Genevois
Your chauffeur takes the Geneva motorway bypass, which runs around the west of the city, past Vernier and the Rhône, to the south. The route crosses into France at the Bardonnex border post or the nearby Perly crossing, and Saint-Julien lies immediately beyond. It is a quick, straightforward drive, though commuter traffic at the border can slow things down in the morning and evening.

The town has a compact centre around its main street and town hall, with residential districts and villages such as Neydens, Archamps and Collonges-sous-Salève close by. Your driver takes you to the door of your home, hotel or office. The Archamps technology park lies just to the east, and the Salève, Geneva's local mountain, rises directly above the area, with its cable car at Étrembières further along.
