Scuol
Scuol is the main resort of the Lower Engadine, known for its Motta Naluns ski area, its mineral springs and the Bogn Engiadina spa, with painted Engadine houses in the old village. It lies at the far eastern end of Switzerland, so a private chauffeur from Geneva turns a long journey with several trains into a single relaxed drive.

Chauffeur's tipThe Vereina car-carrying train runs frequently but can have queues on busy Saturdays; booking an early pick-up from Geneva helps avoid the longest waits.
The route from Geneva to Scuol
The chauffeur drives via Lausanne, Bern and Zurich to Landquart, then up the Prättigau valley to Klosters. There the car boards the Vereina car-carrying train, which runs through the mountain to Sagliains in the Lower Engadine; passengers stay in the vehicle for the crossing. In summer the Flüela Pass from Davos is an alternative when it is open. From Sagliains the road follows the Inn valley down to Scuol. About 470 km and around five hours overall, including the train.
Arriving in Scuol
Scuol's hotels are spread between the lower part of the village, near the station and the Motta Naluns gondola, and the old village with its fountains and sgraffito facades. The Bogn Engiadina spa is right in the centre. The chauffeur drops you at your hotel or holiday apartment; nearby villages such as Ftan, Sent and Tarasp are also easily reached.
Practical advice
For families and ski groups, AirportsTransfers.ch sends a Mercedes V-Class with room for up to 7 passengers and their skis; declare them when booking. Your flight is tracked and waiting time is included if it lands late. Child seats are available on request. For the return, allow enough time for the Vereina train and Swiss motorway traffic, and book both directions together with a fixed price confirmed in advance.
