The best way to get there is by train from Geneva to Chamonix. Be aware it is 2:45 to 3:30 hours in each direction. Go to sbb.ch for train time and fare information. While in Genenva you should take a lake cruise. It is well worth it. If you like to wander go across the river to the old town. enjoy!

Hi,

You may also still have buses from Geneva to Chamonix, I think they run all year long, could be shorter and cheaper than the train. You can get up on the cable car to Aiguille du Midi...not cheap, but an amazing experience. Be careful, it's only open when the weather is good, so you may need to be a little flexible.
