Private Transfer Services in Switzerland

Switzerland is synonymous with efficiency and breathtaking landscapes. While the country is famous for its public train system, the reality of navigating crowded platforms with heavy luggage, ski equipment, or a tight business schedule is far from relaxing. Whether you are attending the World Economic Forum in Davos or retreating to a chalet in Verbier, the "last mile" is often the hardest. Use this guide to optimize your Swiss ground transport strategy.

TravelThru Transfer Services in Switzerland

Airport Transfer

Arriving in Switzerland, whether for high-stakes banking in Zurich or a luxury holiday in Gstaad, requires a seamless start. Zurich Airport (ZRH) and Geneva Airport (GVA) are efficient but busy hubs. Finding a taxi that can accommodate 5 people plus ski bags is often a challenge at the curb.

A pre-booked private transfer with TravelThru ensures your vehicle is pre-selected for your specific cargo needs.

Your chauffeur will meet you in the arrivals hall, ready to assist with luggage carts and guide you to a premium vehicle. Unlike standard taxis, which are among the most expensive in the world and run on meters, TravelThru offers fixed pricing. This is crucial for long transfers (e.g., Geneva to Courchevel or Zurich to St. Moritz) where traffic or weather delays could otherwise double your cost.

Hourly Chauffeur & Financial Roadshows

For business travelers in Zurich’s Paradeplatz or Geneva’s diplomatic quarter, time is the most valuable asset. Our A-to-B transfer service provides a mobile office environment, allowing you to move effortlessly between meetings.

• Confidentiality: Our drivers are professionals accustomed to serving C-suite executives and diplomats.
• Efficiency: Avoid the stress of finding parking in city centers or waiting for trams in the rain. Your driver waits on standby while you conduct business.

Event Transportation

Logistics for ski trips are complex. Many of Switzerland’s most famous resorts, such as Zermatt and Saas-Fee, are "car-free" villages. Standard car rentals become a liability as they must be parked miles away.

TravelThru specializes in Alpine logistics.

• Event Logistics (Davos): We provide secure ground transport for major events like the WEF, offering high-end sedans and minivans that meet strict security protocols.

   

• The Right Vehicle: We utilize Mercedes V-Class 4MATIC vans, the gold standard for Alpine travel. They offer the traction needed for snowy passes and the space required for ski bags and luggage.

Other Transportation Options in Switzerland

Getting Between Cities & Resorts

Public Transport (SBB CFF FFS Trains)

• Pros: World-famous punctuality and beautiful scenic routes (e.g., Glacier Express).
• Cons: Dragging ski bags and suitcases onto trains and through connection tunnels is physically demanding. Trains do not go to your hotel door; you still need a taxi or bus for the final leg.

Rental Cars (Self-Drive)

• Pros: Independence to explore remote passes.
• Cons: Driving on snow and ice requires experience. Parking in cities like Geneva is incredibly expensive and scarce. Speed cameras are everywhere, and fines are steep.

Standard Taxis

• Pros: Available at taxi stands.
• Cons: Swiss taxis are notoriously expensive. A meter ride from Zurich Airport to a distant ski resort can cost an astronomical amount, with no guarantee of vehicle quality or English fluency.
