Zurich → Montreux

Private Transfer from Zurich to Montreux

Traveling from Zurich to Montreux is one of the most popular transfer routes in Switzerland. Rather than navigating unfamiliar public transport systems or haggling with taxi drivers at the terminal, a pre-booked private transfer guarantees a professional, English-speaking driver waiting for you at arrivals with a name sign. This is especially valuable for longer journeys where comfort and reliability matter most.

Route Overview: Zurich → Montreux

The journey covers approximately 208 km and takes around 2h 21m under normal traffic conditions. For longer transfers like this, we recommend booking a Business Sedan or Premium Van for maximum comfort. Your driver will make a rest stop upon request, and complimentary water is typically provided. Swiss roads are exceptionally well-maintained, and your driver will use the motorway network for the fastest route. During winter months (November–April), all vehicles are equipped with mandatory winter tires.

Pricing Comparison

Economy sedan transfers on this route start from CHF 401, while Business class vehicles are available from CHF 533. All prices on RideNavigator are per vehicle, not per person — making private transfers excellent value for couples, families, and small groups. Unlike taxis, our prices are fixed at the time of booking: no surge pricing, no meter running in traffic, and no hidden airport surcharges.

• Luggage: For longer journeys, consider upgrading to a van if you have more than 2 large suitcases or ski/sports equipment.
• Payment: Pay securely online when booking, or choose to pay the driver directly in cash (CHF) upon arrival.
