Most travellers arrive in Grenoble as part of an organised tour which includes flights, accommodation and airport transfers. In this case, just look for your tour operator's delegate in the arrivals hall who will direct you to the buses.
Individual travellers have the choice of a special bus service, car rental companies or taxis.

Buses to Grenoble
There is a special "Navette Aéroport" line to the airport, operated by the carrier Actibus.
The bus timetable follows the regular air routes.
The buses stop at the main bus station in the centre of Grenoble (bus stop location at google.com/maps).
Tickets can be purchased online at booking.alps-airport-transfer.co.uk or at the driver's desk, where you can pay by card only. However, we recommend buying your ticket online as it is not possible to carry standing passengers on the bus.
- 20 eur - One-way
- 32 eur - return
The journey time is approximately 45 minutes.
Buses to ski resorts
Bensbus buses also run directly from the airport to many ski resorts. Transport is considerably cheaper than by taxi, but for a longer stay it is more worthwhile to hire a car.
One-way ticket prices range between 50 eur and 65 eur.
Tickets must be booked online at bensbus.co.uk.
Hire a car
Around 50 metres to the left of the terminal is a low building housing several car rental companies.
Prices in the peak winter season start at around 420 eur per week.
