The chalets of Valberg under snow, with the mountains behind

Valberg in winter

Valberg stretches for two kilometres along a sunny slope, at 1,700 metres. The ski resort opened in 1936, between the upper Var valley and the Cians valley.

Discover Valberg

The village

Here, it is known as "the village". Around Place Charles-Ginésy and its pedestrian street are the shops, the hotels and a weekly market. A little further on stands the Notre-Dame-des-Neiges chapel. The ski area links up with Beuil-Les Launes, and most runs have snow cannons.

Summer in Valberg

In the warm season, the Garibeuil chairlift carries the summer sledges up. The Sentier Planétaire starts from the same spot: it sets out the planets to scale along the path. The resort also has a nine-hole golf course. For a walk, a path leads from the Col de l'Espaul to the Lac de Beuil, with no climb.

Our chauffeur services in Valberg

Getting here and away

From Nice Airport, we reach Valberg in 1 h 45 min. The road follows the Var, then runs through the Cians gorges, with the red rock walls Alexis Mossa used to paint. In winter, our vehicles are equipped to drive on snow. The fare, known when you book, starts from €300. For a family with sledges and skis, the V-Class has the room.

With children

In the centre of the resort, the Garibeuil has two conveyor lifts for beginners. Older children then move on to the chairlift. We drop you close by, with the children's gear. For the trip home, give us the time the day before, and we come up to fetch you.

A day in Valberg

In the morning, ski around the Croix du Sapet. On market day, have lunch near the square. In the afternoon, head off on snowshoes towards the Tête de Charnay, or onto the 25 km of cross-country trails. For another day out, our excursion service takes you to Auron or Isola 2000.

Your questions

Frequently asked questions

How much is a transfer between Nice Airport and Valberg?

The price is fixed, VAT included and per vehicle: €300 in an E-Class (1 to 3 passengers), €400 in a V-Class (up to 7 passengers) and €500 in an S-Class (1 to 2 passengers). The winter rate does not apply to ski resorts: this price holds all year round. The price is shown before you book and does not change afterwards.

How long does it take from Nice Airport to Valberg?

About 1 h 45 min to reach Valberg (89 km), as a guide only: depending on the season and the time of day, the journey may take longer. Your chauffeur tracks your flight: if it is late, they wait for you and the waiting time is free.

Which way does the road to Valberg go?

Up the Var valley, then through the Cians gorges to Beuil. In winter, we drive it with snow equipment on board.

Is Valberg open in summer?

Yes: summer sledging, a nine-hole golf course and walking trails.

Are your prices fixed?

Yes. The price is shown before you book, including VAT and per vehicle, and it does not change afterwards.

Do you provide child seats?

Yes: child car seats and booster seats. Just mention it when you book.

Can I cancel my booking?

Yes. Up to 6 hours before pick-up, you can cancel free of charge or change your booking yourself, from your booking page (and during the hour after a booking made later than that). After that, contact us directly and we will do our very best.

How do I pay?

Directly on the website, by card, when you book: your booking is confirmed straight away. You can also pay in the car, by card (American Express accepted) or in cash.

What is the difference between a private chauffeur (VTC) and a taxi?

A VTC (private-hire chauffeur) is booked in advance and its price is fixed when you book. A taxi can be taken without booking, at a rank or in the street, and its fare usually depends on the meter. Riviera Private Driver is a VTC service.
