France by train - travelling in style

Taking the train is simply the way to travel in France. Not only is it great value for money, it's also a fantastic way to see more of this beautiful country - and you can easily connect with trains going to other countries too.

Why should I take the train?
You'll enjoy reliable, frequent trains and comfortable, civilised journeys on the French rail network. No wonder it's considered to be one of the best in the world.

Go by train in France and you can:

  • enjoy first-class, high-speed and long-distance services for much less than you could in the UK
  • go where and how you want with a choice of high-speed, overnight and local/regular speed trains
  • travel fast - door-to-door, going by train can be quicker than flying
  • pay the price that's quoted - there are no extra baggage or fuel charges to budget for
  • enjoy hassle-free travel - you keep your luggage with you on the train so there are no long check-ins or waits at the baggage carousel

Where can I go?
You can travel by train straight to the heart of thousands of destinations in France.
