Clermont-Ferrand Auvergne Airport (CFE), located at Aulnat 6 km east of Clermont-Ferrand, is the nearest air gateway to La Bourboule, a spa town at 850 metres altitude in the heart of the Auvergne Volcanoes Park. For spa guests arriving by air from Paris-Orly, Lyon, Porto, Ajaccio or other CFE destinations, the taxi transfer is the most comfortable and reliable option: no connections to manage, no luggage to drag through public transport, no waiting in the cold in winter. Your driver awaits you personally at the airport's single terminal with a name board. They track your flight in real time via an automatic system, meaning that if your plane arrives early or late, they adjust their arrival time accordingly — you have nothing to do, no calls to make. Once you've collected your luggage, your driver settles you comfortably in an air-conditioned vehicle and sets off for La Bourboule. The one-hour journey crosses some of France's most spectacular volcanic landscapes, offering a striking preview of Auvergne from the moment you arrive: the Chaîne des Puys on the horizon, beech and fir forests, altitude meadows and, approaching La Bourboule, the first peaks of the Sancy massif. For spa guests arriving with medical equipment or bulky luggage for a three-week cure, the taxi offers generous boot space and the certainty of arriving without fatigue at the Choussy-Lépine thermal baths or directly at their spa residence. In winter, when La Bourboule transforms into a winter sports resort with the Charlannes domain, our vehicles are systematically fitted with snow tyres and our drivers carry chains when needed, guaranteeing a safe journey even on snowy mountain roads. Arrival logistics are an often underestimated aspect of a thermal or tourist stay: by choosing a taxi from the airport, you eliminate the stress of connections, rigid timetables and public transport uncertainties, starting your stay in the best possible conditions.
Route
Route Aéroport Clermont-Ferrand → La Bourboule
Your driver collects you directly outside the single terminal of Clermont-Ferrand Auvergne Airport. The route begins with a short stretch on the A71 towards Bordeaux, bypassing Clermont-Ferrand quickly to the south. After the motorway exit, the D2089 takes over and enters the Volcanoes Park. The road first passes Royat, whose thermal baths and casino are visible in passing, then climbs gradually through the Royat state forest. The volcanic plateau offers panoramic views of the Chaîne des Puys to the west, with the unmistakable Puy de Dôme. After the Col de la Ventouse (1,100 m), the descent towards Rochefort-Montagne then La Bourboule offers spectacular views of the Upper Dordogne valley and Sancy peaks. Tolls of approximately €2 on the motorway section (included in the fare). Allow 1 hour under normal conditions. In winter, the journey may extend to 1h15 depending on snow conditions — our drivers are equipped and experienced.

Specific tips for the Aéroport Clermont-Ferrand → La Bourboule route
Book your airport transfer at least 24 hours in advance and share your flight number (e.g. AF7534) so the driver can track your arrival in real time. In case of flight delay, waiting is free for up to 45 minutes. If you're arriving for a thermal cure, share the exact address of your spa residence — your driver will drop you at the door.

The Choussy-Lépine thermal baths offer 18-day conventional cures and day wellness packages from €25. Skiing at Charlannes (10 min from La Bourboule) has a family domain with day passes at €18.

Taxi vs alternatives
Detailed comparison of transport options
There is no direct shuttle between Clermont-Ferrand Auvergne Airport and La Bourboule. Using public transport requires combining the airport shuttle to Clermont bus station (20 min, €5), then the Transdôme bus to La Bourboule (1h30, €8), with often lengthy connections: allow 2h30 to 3h minimum door to door, plus managing luggage between vehicles. This is unsuitable for tired spa guests or families with children. Car rental at the airport (€45-70/day) means managing a vehicle on mountain roads. The taxi at €140-170 offers a direct, comfortable, stress-free 1-hour transfer. For 3-4 passengers, the cost works out to €20-33 per person — unbeatable value for comfort and convenience.
