Private transfer from Lyon 5th arrondissement to Saint-Exupéry airport

Lyon 5th arrondissement has a distinctive geography: the medieval Vieux-Lyon at the bottom (narrow, partly pedestrian streets, difficult access for large vehicles) and Fourvière at the top (funicular access or via Gorge de Loup). From Gorge de Loup or Champvert, the route to Saint-Exupéry airport is direct via the A6 then A46. Journey time is approximately 30–40 minutes depending on the time of day.

Why book a fixed-price transfer instead of a taxi from the 5th?

Conventional taxis in Lyon charge by meter according to the Rhône department tariff. During the day, the estimated fare from the 5th to LYS is approximately €80 (tolls extra). At night, the B tariff (approximately +38%) brings the estimate to €110. These figures can vary depending on traffic on the A43.

With TAL, the €60 rate is confirmed at booking. Whether you depart on a Tuesday at 9am or a Sunday at 5am, the price does not change (except the night supplement of +20% for pick-ups between 10pm and 6am, stated before confirmation). This certainty is particularly important for business travel (expense reimbursement) and early morning departures from the 5th arrondissement.
