I did this trip a few years ago. I had started from Venice and went to Geneva through this tunnel! You cross the valley of Aosta and reach the tunnel, while above are sections of the Alps! Fantastic route and amazing tunnel! I passed from Italy to France and from there I arrived at my destination in Geneva! Unforgettable route!
This is a great example of European expertise at its finest. The efficiency displayed handling traffic is certainly world leading and the toll is a real bargain. The designers, builders and operators of highways and tunnels in mountainous areas of China should come to the Alps and learn.
lol. Experitse? A queue. Manual tolling. That’s efficiency? We have toll tags and cars drive through with no queues. That’s about as mid 20th century and backward as they come. What I’m looking at appears designed to create congestion.
A much more exciting experience (and you can leave your car in the carpark for your return) is to cross into Italy via the highest cable cars in Europe - a death defying experience that takes you above the clouds and you're not in an airplane.!! At the summit, you change to an Italian cable car for the descent into Italy. You need to walk slowly at the top (an aircraft would already be pressurised at that height!!!). Afterwards you can quickly return on the bus or train to pick up your car. I'm not sure what on-line details you can get in English (I have only ever looked in french). And from what I remember, you have to go into an Italian site for the second stage. Or just simply turn up and go. Provided the European school/college holidays haven't started, there's usually no problem, and early morning departures are always good, wherever you go. Bonne route !
Not sure when this tunnel was completed, but if in the 1960s than I remember we drove thru' it on the way to Lake Garda What happens if you break down - don't see any telephones. Whar happened to the trucks?
Hola Gabrielle, buenas tardes y buen Domingo. Que lindo video que te filmaste. Mostrandonos esta gran obra vial y el hermoso paisaje en que se encuentra. Me gusto mucho. Muchas gracias por registrarlo todo y compartirlo con todos nosotros. Muy buen trabajo. Segui adelante. Gracias Gabrielle.
What is wrong why are there so many cars waiting to enter the tunnel if it is an everyday scene then why are they not developing a pass over the mountains this trip was for me to claustrophobic and too long, the scenery is beautifully, but the roads needs attention too small for all those cars, and trucks.
@@Malik_Sylvusmate. Are you 10 years old? It was built 60 years ago. Its cost would have been well and truly repaid by now. Even with the cost of maintenance and employee costs that’s still a lot of money. And if you think a queue on the Italy side of several kms long and sitting in it for an hour plus is efficient and cost effective. I can travel the alternate route of 50 km in the time people are waiting to go through the tunnel.
❤❤❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂🎉🎉😮😮😮😮😮😮😮AWESOME, TOO GOOD. Montblanc MAGNIFICENT MOMENTS OF JOURNEY. WOW WOW WOW JUST WOW ONLY. 😊😊 I Am FROM India PRETTY Near To City Of Kolkata JUST FOUR Hours Driving Distance From KOLKATA CITY To My Native Town Of Bishnupur Of Bankura District. YOU ARE MOST CORDIALLY INVITED TO VISIT ONCE MY INDIA.
Beautiful ! Remember : it's 70 km/h with at least 2 or 3 radar velocity inside the tunnel, so be carreful and you have to maintain 2 blue spot Light between your vehicle and the vehicle front of you (= 150 m). Benvenuti al traforo del monte bianco !!
