Jean François GODARD
We will share a moment and a journey together. I am Jean-François GODARD and I am delighted to meet you.
A Little Background
Born in Ugine, in Savoy and a legal expert by training, I have been a taxi driver for more than 25 years. I have had many jobs. One after another, in public relations, then in event planning, then in insurance. I continue to pass on the values of the job to young professionals during the trainings that I have facilitated over the past years.
Why Edelweiss Taxi?
Edelweiss Taxi, I chose this name for its symbolism but also following a romantic encounter, but I will tell you everything during our journey together, if you like.
To be a driver, it’s thousands of meetings
During a trip, be it a few minutes or several hours, between us we share the experience, the setting, and their feelings. To be a driver is to offer a service to others, a mixture of kindness and trust when the client wishes to share or simply needs a break.
A mixture of professionalism, high standards, and “coolitude”
The satisfaction of our clients is clear priority. Be it a trip for work or vacation, long or short distance, more than 93% of our clients are satisfied with our services
(source: https://www.findtransfers.com/).
Fluent in Swedish, English and French, I offer transportation throughout Europe to and from Savoie.
During our trip, I can share with you … everything that interests me, for example the link between Menthon St-Bernard, the village in Haute Savoie, and the mountain pass “Le Petit St-Bernard”, and the symbolic dog of the same name. Or about Beaufort, its local region, and famous cheese. Even still about the original name for the city of Moutiers, head office of the first archbishop of the Tarentaise region.
And many more.
I am at your disposal and see you soon!

They’re talking about us
Edelweiss Taxi provided great transfers between Grenoble Airport and La Tania (Courchevel). Jean-Francois communicated clearly and responded to queries rapidly prior to our trip. Both drivers were extremely polite, on time and helpful with loading and unloading luggage. The vehicles were extremely roomy and comfortable. Would highly recommend.
William S
Punctual, very friendly (excellent English), great driver and very reasonable price. Very accommodating when we needed to change our pick up location (twice!).

Lovely guy drove us safely to Chambery Airport. Due to traffic they were slightly late to collect us but it wasn’t a problem and the journey was smooth and comfortable. They had two car seats in the car ready for my children and our driver spoke great English and was friendly - we hope to use again sometime
