The route from Geneva Airport to Stuttgart
The chauffeur leaves Geneva on the Swiss motorway network across the Plateau towards Zurich. Depending on traffic, the route then crosses into Germany either near Schaffhausen, continuing on the A81 motorway past Singen and through the hills of Swabia, or via Basel, following the A5 north along the Rhine before turning east on the A8 at Karlsruhe. Both routes bring you to Stuttgart, nestled in its valley among vineyards.
Arriving in Stuttgart
The chauffeur drives you directly to your hotel, office or the Messe Stuttgart, located next to Stuttgart Airport. Industrial sites in Sindelfingen, Böblingen, Zuffenhausen and across the region are reached door to door, as are the Mercedes-Benz Museum and the Porsche Museum. AirportsTransfers.ch can also take you on to Tübingen, Ludwigsburg or the Black Forest.
Practical advice for the journey
At just under five hours, the trip includes a short break. Traffic around Stuttgart is notoriously dense at rush hour, so allow a margin before meetings.
