Cars Région Savoie is the inter-urban coach network of the Savoie department, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. Formerly called Belle Savoie Express, this public transport service is managed, organised and funded by the Region, in collaboration with several private operators who run the daily service across the area.
A true backbone of mobility in Savoie, the Cars Région Savoie network connects the towns, villages and mountain resorts throughout the Maurienne and Tarentaise valleys. It also serves certain neighbouring towns in Isère and Haute-Savoie, providing comprehensive coverage to make it easier for residents, students and travellers to get around.
The network now has nearly forty inter-urban lines, split into several categories:
Lines are identified by codes ranging from S01 to S89, depending on the area:
Thanks to this dense network, it's easy to reach the main ski resorts in Savoie such as Val d'Isère, Val Cenis, Courchevel, La Plagne, Les Arcs or even Les 7 Laux. These lines provide direct connections from the SNCF stations of Chambéry, Albertville, Moûtiers, Aime-la-Plagne or Bourg-Saint-Maurice, making car-free connections easier.
The network's timetables, routes and fares can be checked online, and planning your journey is made simple thanks to digital booking on Tictactrip. In just a few clicks, you can compare the available Cars Région Savoie lines, choose your route and get your e-ticket instantly.

By choosing Cars Région Savoie, you're taking part in sustainable mobility that's accessible to everyone. This modernised, connected network embodies the region's commitment to offering efficient public transport for residents and visitors alike, in summer and winter.
The Cars Région Savoie network is structured around several key stations (Aime-la-Plagne, Bourg-Saint-Maurice, Chambéry, Landry, Modane, Moûtiers, Saint-Avre – La Chambre, Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne and Saint-Michel-de-Maurienne). From each of these stations, numbered Sxx lines climb up to the ski resorts and valley villages. The idea is simple: you arrive by train, board your coach and finish your journey right at the foot of the slopes.
Here's a clear overview of the main lines to help you choose the right shuttle before booking your journey on Tictactrip.
Aime-la-Plagne station is one of the main gateways to the La Plagne area. The shuttles then climb up to the villages and high-altitude resorts.

From Chambéry, capital of Savoie, the Cars Région serve the lakes, the Bauges and Chartreuse mountain ranges as well as numerous suburban villages.
The small station of Landry is an ideal starting point if you're staying between La Plagne and Les Arcs.
In Modane, several seasonal lines climb up to the resorts of the Haute Maurienne. They mainly run during the winter season.
Moûtiers is one of the main "resort gateways" in the Alps. This is where you switch from train to shuttle to reach the 3 Vallées and other neighbouring ski areas.
Saint-Avre – La Chambre station is the main starting point for reaching Saint-François-Longchamp.
Located at the centre of the Maurienne, Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne gives access to several ski areas grouped around the Sybelles, as well as more off-the-beaten-track villages.
From Saint-Michel-de-Maurienne, the lines climb up to the resorts located on the sunny slopes above the Arc valley.

For our restaurant tip of the day, we picked Le Savoy! This cosy, stylishly decorated restaurant is perfect for enjoying a good fondue!

These Altibus shuttles are available on Tictactrip so you can travel easily, quickly and in complete respect of the environment. So the Courchevel ski slopes are all yours!
Since it's unthinkable to spend a day skiing without a good hot meal afterwards, we suggest heading to La Cave des Creux for dinner. Located at over 2,000 metres altitude, this Courchevel restaurant lets you enjoy a delicious Savoyard dish by a fireplace while admiring Mont Blanc.
To finish in style, you can ski back to the Courchevel 1850 resort straight from the restaurant! You'll be back in record time, ready to recharge for another full day of skiing tomorrow!
Want to discover or rediscover Tignes? Then go with the Tignes Altibus! You can find tickets at any price to suit your budget (for example Altibus Bourg Saint Maurice Tignes at a great price), so don't wait any longer and head to our multimodal comparison tool!
With nearly 50% blue slopes, Tignes lets you ski safely while still challenging yourself a bit (because going fast on skis is pretty cool!). Don't worry, there are also plenty of red slopes at Tignes, plus two snowparks.
After the effort comes the reward, as they say! Head to La Ferme des 3 Capucines with Tignes Altibus to enjoy a good piece of meat in a setting that's both authentic and refined. A real favourite of the Tictacteam!
The Cars Région Savoie network is the heir to a long history of public transport organisation in the department. Its creation dates back to the 1980s, following the LOTI law (Loi d'orientation des transports intérieurs), which aimed to improve and structure regional transport at local and interurban level. At that time, the network was called Belle Savoie Express and already provided connections between SNCF stations, towns in Savoie and ski resorts.
Over the years, growing demand for mobility – particularly for access to the Tarentaise and Maurienne resorts – led to strengthened routes, modernised vehicles and better coordination with regional trains.
The network's transformation took place in stages:
Since its rebranding, Cars Région Savoie has undergone extensive modernisation. This includes:
Since 2024, Cars Région Savoie has operated as a fully regionalised network, designed to make daily travel easier for residents as well as access to the winter and summer sports resorts that make the department famous.
Today, the network has more than 30 routes, including many seasonal connections linking SNCF stations to mountain resorts. It is an essential part of sustainable mobility in Savoie, for both tourists and residents.
