Thanks for the responses to my posting. The journey took two hours
from Geneva on Sat 12th Feb and two and a quarter hours on the way
back a week later. On both days the volume of traffic was horrendous -
peak season I guess. On both journeys the toll booths were the cause
of the delays. We queued for over an hour to go through one on the
return journey. I guess the moral is: if you travel on the busiest
weekends allow lots of time.


Indeed. I've _never_ taken more than 1.5 hours for the same journey.
As others have pointed out, there are other N-road options, which
might be worth considering if you're doing it again. Or just ensure
that you avoid peak periods, of course :-)
