The high-speed TGV trains connect over 150 cities and towns in France.
Since 1981, TGV has served these cities and neighboring countries. Holding the world speed record at 320
mph, the TGV wastes no
time in getting you to your destination, such as Paris to Bordeaux in only
3 hours.
The TGV is the
cornerstone of the European high-speed rail network connecting France to
London, Brussels, Geneva, Lausanne, Zurich, Torino, Milan, and more safely, quickly and
comfortably.
All TGVs are now entirely NON-smoking.
Accommodations:
Enjoy the convenience of the first and second class accommodations
provided by the TGV trains! You can work in peace and quiet because many
TGVs have sockets for you to connect your portable computer.
Take the time
to read from the France TGV Magazine available free of charge. You can
also make yourself thoroughly at home with an enjoyable lunch or dinner,
thanks to a great new onboard restaurant.

Because a train is a communal mode of transport, TGVs offer you some
new, more private areas for your convenience. The family area lets you relax on your
journey.
The nursery area is specially designed to help you look after
your baby's needs. Finally, the snack cart and drinks and snack vending
machines are there when you need a little something to keep you going!

Eurostar
: London <> Paris <> Brussels
<> Amsterdam
Eurostar is your high speed, top
comfort connection via the
eurotunnel. Reach London or Paris in 2h35. There's even a direct
stop at Disneyland Paris. In the winter it can drop you off at different
ski locations in the South of France.
Your Eurail pass gives you a reduction of 25-35% on a Eurostar ticket...
so, although you can't directly use the Eurorail pass for this portion of
your trip... it certainly has many advantages.
You can NOT buy tickets directly from the French
National Railway outside of France. But you can purchase tickets directly
through BonjourLaFrance. Just click on the relevant link below.
