Verbier: The first resort in Switzerland to provide a comprehensive range of transportation services to visitors from around the world
Since December 2023, as part of its Mobility Plan, Verbier Tourisme has introduced a multi-mode transport booking service developed by Antidots. This innovative booking platform incorporates all modes of transportation, covering entire journeys from any locations worldwide. As a result, it will now be possible to plan, book, and pay for your journey to Verbier through a single platform.
This solution marks the first integration of Mobility as a Service (MaaS) with a valley lift, specifically the one connecting Le Châble and Verbier. It provides travelers with an all-inclusive transportation package, encompassing train and plane services, VTC and taxi options, car rentals, buses, and coaches, as well as free shuttles and the Châble-Verbier gondola. All of these services are conveniently bundled together on the Go Verbier platform, allowing for a seamless experience with a single payment.
Sustainability and innovation: With this innovative technology, the Swiss resort, twice voted the best in the world, is committing to a positive transformation of its region by prioritising sustainable transportation alternatives. For each transportation combination, Go Verbier will display the calculated CO2 emissions, enhancing the travel experience not only in terms of efficiency (time and cost optimisation) and simplicity but also in environmental responsibility.
Travelers will have the choice to opt for a route that is not only efficient but also environmentally friendly. While this option already exists for travel in Switzerland via the Swiss railways (excluding planes), the Go Verbier platform is designed for international clientele of the destination, offering them the most environmentally sustainable mobility options available.
As a natural extension of its visionary, impactful, and committed ethos, Verbier Tourisme is positioning itself as a laboratory of ideas and innovation. This is exemplified by the door-to-door multimodal transport booking solution, achievable with just a few clicks, as part of its high-value approach. Developed by Antidots, this easily accessible technology will be seamlessly integrated into the Verbier Tourisme website.
What's included in Go Verbier:
Train: All primary, secondary, and tertiary stations in France (international market), all major international lines (Eurostar, Thalys, Lyria, etc.), as well as all train services in the Benelux countries, the UK, Italy, Germany and Switzerland.
Plane: The flow of nearly 300 airlines will be aggregated into the solution.
Major national and international coach services
Regional bus networks
Valley lift (ski lift) from Le Châble station to Verbier
Car hire, with priority given to electric cars
Taxis, VTC, Mini Van, private transfers
Free intra-station shuttle buses, to ensure last-mile logistics (commissioning during the winter)
In a second phase, as soon as the functionality of the intra-station bus links is operational, GoVerbier.ch will become the destination's mobility platform as a genuine tool "before and during" the stay. In addition to MaaS, the platform will be able to provide customers with information during their stay, using a brand new mapping technology and a Local MaaS that will make it easy for visitors to get around the area.
