High speed trains

Your comfortable and rapid travel around France is ensured by trains which can reach the speed of 300 km/h. This the best and most comfortable way to move between the country’s major cities, and even travel into neighbouring countries.

TGV

Trains à Grande Vitesse are among the fastest trains in the world, and have become a symbol of France. They move at a speed of between 300 and 320 km/h. Linking Paris with the major centres of the country, including Lyon, Lille and Marseille. TGVs stop at more than 100 stations and reach almost every corner of France.

In spite of their speed, TGV trains are very quiet, and thanks to this you can expect an extremely comfortable trip, whether you wish to relax or do some work.

Each TGV train carries reserved seating, a buffet serving snacks and drinks, a special baby-changing area, accommodation for wheelchair passengers, and a WC accommodating disabled passengers.

1st class

All seats are large and comfortable, have armrests and are controlled electronically. Every traveler has access to a sufficiently large table and to a power socket to comfortably use a laptop or charge a mobile phone. If you need a little privacy, for example, to use a mobile phone, there is a separate room with a small couch in each coach.

2nd class

All seats are fitted with armrests. The passenger has access to a fixed or fold-out table, allowing the use of a laptop. Some seats have a power socket. In every car there are two toilets, and the end of the train there is a baby-changing area.

Intercités (daytime inter-city trains)

Intercités are a network of long-distance trains connecting more than 330 French cities. They operate in the day. On most services it is possible to reserve seats, and a buffet car is available.
