Lyon, the heart of our network

228 Transfers is a brand of La Conciergerie I Carré, a passenger transport group in the Lyon area. Our specialised Lyon service, Transfert-Lyon, details our fixed prices and the towns served throughout the metropolitan area.

This Lyon base is also the starting point for our long-distance journeys: Geneva, Alpine resorts, Paris, Marseille, the French Riviera or Bordeaux, with a driver who picks you up at your door in Lyon and drops you at your destination.

Airport and stations

Lyon Saint-Exupéry airport is about 30 to 45 minutes from central Lyon. For a departure, we calculate the pick-up time from your flight; for an arrival, your driver tracks your flight and waits for you in the arrivals hall with a name board. At Part-Dieu, Perrache and Saint-Exupéry TGV stations, they wait for you at the platform exit, even if your train is delayed.

Trade fairs, conferences and business travel

Lyon is one of France’s leading conference cities. During major Eurexpo trade fairs such as Sirha, or conferences at the Cité Internationale, finding an available vehicle becomes difficult. Book in advance: we welcome your participants at the airport and stations, organise shuttles between hotels and event venues, and provide chauffeurs for your speakers and guests.

Lyon and the surrounding area

Our drivers know every district of Lyon, from the Presqu’île to Vieux-Lyon, from Part-Dieu to Confluence, as well as the towns of the metropolitan area and beyond: east Lyon and the airport, the south-west, the Monts d’Or, the Beaujolais and northern Isère. To the north, in Villefranche-sur-Saône and the Beaujolais, drivers from our group operate: see our page Villefranche-sur-Saône and our local service VSS-Cab. For local journeys and detailed prices by town, see Transfert-Lyon.

From Lyon, anywhere in France

Lyon is ideally placed to reach Geneva by chauffeur-driven car in under two hours, Alpine resorts in two to three hours, the Mediterranean in three hours, or Paris in just over four hours. For families with luggage, groups or travellers who prefer to work in peace, it is often simpler than a train with connections. And we also provide your journeys in other cities, such as Bordeaux, Marseille or the French Riviera.

For businesses

Lyon businesses entrust us with their employees’ travel in France: one account for Lyon and the other cities in the network, centralised monthly invoicing with your references, and a single point of contact. Your visitors are welcomed at the airport or station with a board bearing your company’s name.
