Taxi Thonon-les-Bains → Annecy
Your Thonon-les-Bains → Annecy transfer at €145–€175. 75 km between Lake Geneva and Lake Annecy.
A taxi between Thonon-les-Bains and Annecy costs between €145 and €175 when booked in advance at a fixed price, over a road distance of about 75 kilometres and a journey time of from 50 to 70 minutes depending on traffic. The usual route takes A41, with ~€5 in tolls. A van for up to seven passengers starts at €230. That price includes luggage, tolls and the driver's approach, and it does not move if traffic builds up: that is the difference with a metered ride, where every minute of waiting is charged and the applicable rate depends on the hour. On an unbooked ride, the amount follows the scale of the prefectoral order applying where the passenger is picked up, higher from seven in the evening to ten in the morning as well as on Sundays and public holidays. The driver tracks the flight or train number given at booking and shifts the pick-up at no extra cost if it is delayed, and cancelling remains free up to six hours before departure.

The taxi from Thonon-les-Bains to Annecy connects Lake Geneva's south shore, Western Europe's largest lake, to Lake Annecy, considered the continent's purest. Thonon, the Chablais capital perched on its cliff above the Léman, is a spa town whose thermal baths have used mineral waters from the surrounding limestone massifs for over a century. The Chablais, crossed during this journey, is a land of strong traditions — home to Abondance cheese, made in alpine pastures since the 12th century. Annecy welcomes you with its medieval old town crossed by Thiou canals, the famous Palais de l'Île that seems to float on the water, and one of Savoie's finest Sunday morning markets. Lake Annecy, with its intense turquoise waters fed by underground springs, is paradise for swimming, paddleboarding, sailing and paragliding.
