France is even closer to Britain now thanks to the Eurostar services between London and Lille & Paris. With its unmatched service and world-class amenities and accommodations, the Eurostar eases you into the train experience of a lifetime.
Once in France, whether spending a year in Provence or just a weekend in Paris, a visit to France always asks searching questions like: ‘Isn't ‘Gallic Pride’ really just common sense’? From the elegant streets of Paris, to the rolling lavender fields of Provence, France bursts with esteem and beauty and what better way to discover it all then by the super fast French TGV – the Train a Grande Vitesse !
Whether racing from Paris to Marseille for a business meeting, or hurrying to Paris to take in the sites, travellers on the TGV enjoy the speed, comfort, and convenience of modern, fast trains. Through the scenic countryside of Paris, from the port cities along the Mediterranean to the commercial centres and capitals of France and Europe, the TGV reaches speeds of up to 320 miles per hour, cutting travel times between Europe’s most visited cities. Exceptional service, fine food, and breathtaking scenery await you along with spacious accommodations.
Although the InterRail Pass does allow travel on the TGV, you do need to purchase a reservation before boarding the train. For Eurostar services, InterRail Passholders are eligible for discounted Eurostar tickets as the InterRail Pass is not valid on the Eurostar. This and reservations on the TGV services can be booked on our city to city tickets page.
