Private chauffeur in Montreux
Sheltered from the winds by the Vaud Alps, the Montreux Riviera lines up palm trees, Belle Époque palace hotels and flowered quays along three kilometres of Lake Geneva. Your private chauffeur in Montreux serves the Montreux Palace and the Fairmont, the convention centre during the Jazz Festival, the Riviera’s clinics and the hillside hotel schools, as well as private residences in Glion and Caux. Fixed prices, premium sedans and vans, overnight availability during the festivals.
From Montreux, the excursions follow on seamlessly. Chillon Castle is five minutes from the quays, the Lavaux terraces begin at Vevey, and Gstaad and its chalets are an hour away via the Col des Mosses or the GoldenPass line. On the Valais side, Verbier, Crans-Montana and the Les Diablerets glacier complete a landscape your chauffeur drives year round.

Experiences
5 experiences with your chauffeur in Montreux
Beyond transfers, your chauffeur becomes the key to the region — private itineraries, fixed prices, vehicle on standby at every stop.
Chillon Castle and Rochers-de-Naye
The fortress of the Counts of Savoy on its rock — Byron’s vaults, rampart walks, state rooms — then up to Rochers-de-Naye at 2,042 metres for the panorama over the whole of Lake Geneva.
Lavaux and Chaplin’s World
The UNESCO-listed terraces between Saint-Saphorin and Lutry, a Chasselas cellar tasting, then the Manoir de Ban in Corsier-sur-Vevey, Chaplin’s home for 25 years. Return along the Vevey quays and their giant fork.
Gstaad via the Col des Mosses
An hour’s alpine drive to the village of dark-timber chalets: the Promenade and its boutiques, lunch at the Gstaad Palace or a Saanenland inn, with a detour via Rougemont and its Romanesque church on the way back.
Glacier 3000 and Les Diablerets
Via Aigle and the Col du Pillon, the cable car up to Glacier 3000: the Peak Walk by Tissot suspension bridge between two summits, views from the Matterhorn to Mont Blanc, year-round snow. An alpine raclette on the way down.
Riviera evening, from Freddie Mercury to the casino
The Freddie Mercury statue and the Queen trail — studio memorabilia at the Casino Barrière included — dinner at Le Pont de Brent or facing the lake, then the illuminated quays out to Chillon. Vehicle on standby all evening.
Frequently asked questions
Private chauffeur Montreux — your questions
How much does a transfer between Geneva Airport and Montreux cost?
A private transfer between Geneva-Cointrin (GVA) and Montreux — 90 km, about 1 hour 10 — is charged at a fixed price, confirmed at booking. It includes a meet-and-greet in the arrivals hall with a name board, real-time flight tracking and 60 minutes of complimentary waiting time in case of delay.
How far in advance should I book during the Montreux Jazz Festival?
During the first two weeks of July demand is very high and the quays are partially closed to traffic. We recommend booking at least a week ahead; your chauffeur knows the authorised drop-off points closest to the convention centre and covers late-night returns after the concerts.
Do you provide transfers to Verbier, Gstaad or Crans-Montana?
Yes. From Montreux, Verbier is 1 hour 15 via Martigny, Gstaad one hour over the Col des Mosses, Crans-Montana 1 hour 15 via Sierre. Winter-equipped vehicles, a fixed price agreed in advance, skis and bulky luggage taken care of.
