How to Get from Annecy to Geneva

We’ve gathered the easiest ways to get from Annecy to Geneva. Cost — from €6 to about €250. Travel time — between 50 minutes and 1 hour 30 minutes.

The cities are just 46 km apart. But with the border, bags, and timing — choosing the right way matters more than it seems.

By Private Transfer

If comfort is key, book a taxi-transfer from Annecy to Geneva with Kiwitaxi. Your car arrives when you say, takes you door-to-door, and skips the confusion of transfers or fixed stops.

The trip takes about 1 hour 30 minutes. Price starts at €250. You choose the car class, request extras, and pay a fixed rate — no meter, no guesswork. Just a smooth ride across the border.

By Bus

FlixBus, BlaBlaCar Bus and others offer direct trips between Annecy and Geneva. The journey takes 50–65 minutes. Tickets? From €6 to €16 depending on time and how early you book.

Buses are reliable, affordable — but fixed. You go from station to station. That’s fine for some. Less so if you’ve got kids or two suitcases and no elevator.

By Taxi

Want to just leave when you’re ready? Local taxis do the route in about 90 minutes. Prices start around €100, and go up slightly depending on time of day or border delays.

Some taxis may not cross into Switzerland — or charge extra. Always ask before you get in. No one likes a surprise bill at the end of a short trip.

Vehicle Classes for Your Transfer

• Economy – perfect if it’s just you and a backpack
• Comfort – great for small families or longer bags
• Minivan – fits groups, skis, or even strollers
• Business – best if you want quiet, space, and style

Transfer with Children

With little ones, short trips can feel longer. Carrying car seats, rushing for buses, hoping the driver understands French? Skip it.

Book a private transfer with Kiwitaxi and request the child seat you need. It’ll be ready. You just buckle in, smile, and go.

Transfer with Pets

Border checks, bus rules, uncertain drivers — none of that makes for a relaxing ride with your pet. Private transfer solves that.

Kiwitaxi offers pet-friendly rides. Select the option. No arguments. Your dog or cat rides with you, and everyone's calm.

What to See in Geneva

Geneva is clean, calm, and efficient — and yes, a little serious. But once you're there, the lake softens everything. The mountains in the distance, the Jet d’Eau rising and falling — it all works.

Explore the old town. Try some chocolate. Or just take a quiet walk along the water. After Annecy’s charm, Geneva offers stillness. And that contrast makes both feel more special.
