Besoin de me rendre jusqu’à Tours en TGV ? Que je sois étudiant(e), professionnel(le) ou touriste, voyager à petit prix, c’est toujours bon à prendre ! En payant le train moins cher, je peux me faire davantage plaisir sur place, et consacrer mon budget à des choses plus fun que des billets de train ! Et ça tombe bien : les billets de TGV sont disponibles à partir de 10€* par adulte et 5€** par enfant. Eh oui, 5€** seulement pour un Paris - Tours, toute l’année et en profitant de nombreuses options : choix de la place, Wifi, bagage supplémentaire… je peux même emmener mon compagnon à quatre pattes !

Je peux également bénéficier des options des trains classiques ! Pourquoi ne pas profiter d’un snack à bord ou d’un bagage supplémentaire ? L’offre de lancement OUIGO train classique me permet de bénéficier d’un bagage supplémentaire gratuitement ! Avec les trains classiques OUIGO, je profite d’un service idéal pour pas cher : entre 10 et 49€ par adulte et maximum 5€ par enfant !

Quelle est la durée d’un trajet Paris – Tours ?

La durée de mon trajet dépend du type de train que je choisis. En optant pour un TGV OUIGO, mon trajet Paris – Tours durera 1h30.

Si je préfère monter à bord d’un train classique pour mon voyage entre Paris et Tours, il me faudra environ 2h : idéal si je souhaite travailler ou regarder un film, bien installé(e) au fond de mon siège !

Quelles sont les gares de départ et d’arrivée pour mon trajet Paris – Tours ?

Les gares de départ et d’arrivée varient en fonction du type de train que je choisis. Si j’opte pour un TGV pour mon trajet Paris – Tours, je devrai me rendre en gare de Paris Marne-la-Vallée, Paris Massy TGV ou Paris Roissy Charles de Gaulle. Mon train grande vitesse me déposera en gare de Saint-Pierre-des-Corps, aux portes de Tours.

Je préfère les trains classiques OUIGO ? Pas de souci ! J’embarque en gare de Paris Austerlitz ou de Juvisy et j’arrive en gare de Saint-Pierre-des-Corps, à seulement 4km de la jolie ville de Tours ! Pour rejoindre le centre-ville de Tours, il ne me faudra qu’une petite dizaine de minutes en transports. Alors, on fait ses valises ?

Y a-t-il des trains directs pour Tours au départ de Paris ?

Pas de stress à avoir : tous les trains OUIGO, TGV ou trains classiques, sont directs ! Je m’assieds bien confortablement dans mon siège et j’attends d’arriver à ma destination sans avoir besoin de changer de train. Parfait si je prévois de me reposer (ou même de m’endormir !) à bord de mon train OUIGO !

À quelle heure partent le premier et le dernier train ?

Pour profiter à fond de ma journée à Tours, je n’hésite pas à réserver le premier TGV de la journée ! Il part à 7h17 depuis Paris Roissy Charles de Gaulle. Si je ne peux pas (ou ne veux pas !) me rendre à Tours à une heure aussi matinale, OUIGO me propose des TGV tout au long de la journée. Le dernier TGV part à 13h30.

Pourquoi ne pas choisir les trains classiques OUIGO ? Ils circulent toute la journée ! Le premier train classique part de la gare d’Austerlitz à 7h52 et le dernier départ est prévu pour 17h44.

Que je parte le matin ou le soir, en TGV, je pense à arriver à ma gare de départ 30 minutes avant le grand départ pour faciliter le travail des agents OUIGO. Attention : fermeture de l’accès au train 5 minutes avant le départ.

Puis-je voyager en groupe dans mon train de Paris à Tours ?

TGV ou train classique, je peux bien évidemment voyager en groupe.

Tours, surnommée la « Ville Blanche et Bleue », est la Métropole Val de Loire. Elle possède un des plus grands amphithéâtres de l’Empire Romain ; et a vu son centre historique inscrit à l’UNESCO. Elle est également Ville d’Art et d’Histoire… et ville gourmande ! En effet, pour les palais gourmets, Tours a ses rillettes, ses rillons ; et bien sûr ses vins de Val de Loire et le délicieux fromage AOC Sainte-Maure-de-Touraine. Plutôt bec sucré ? On découvre le nougat de Tours, un gâteau qui va ravir les amateurs d’amandes et de fruits confits.

A first-timer’s guide to taking the Eurostar

Tasmin Waby

May 13, 2024 • 7 min read

train paris tours

Plan your train travels with this guide to the international Eurostar service © Eurostar

It’s been 30 years since the Eurostar first connected London to mainland Europe via the Channel Tunnel. As an Australian living in London, I cannot tell you how excited I was the first time I arrived at St Pancras “International” to board a Paris -bound train. 

A few trips later, including a recent long weekend in Amsterdam with my kid to celebrate a milestone birthday, I have put together a first-timer’s guide to riding the Eurostar. 

Here’s everything you need to know if you’re traveling the Eurostar on a Standard class ticket. And if you want to grab a bargain, sign up for emails to be the first to know when the cheap tickets drop.

A train at a station platform as passengers disembark

Where do you catch the Eurostar train from?

In London, it’s St Pancras International, which is right next to King’s Cross Station. There’s plenty of public transportation and dozens of places to eat and drink before you board, whether inside the train station or nearby at Coal Drops Yard (north of the station). Heading south over beyond Euston Rd, the area has a slight ghost town feel after dark.

In Paris, the train departs from Gare du Nord, which is located in the 10th arrondissement . Queues to buy tickets for onward travel on the metro are notoriously long, but you can buy tickets on the Eurostar. Be aware it’s also a prime target for pickpockets and scam artists. Don’t be distracted or, like me, you may lose a handbag while being asked a seemingly genuine question by a stranger.

When catching the Eurostar from Amsterdam Centraal , you’ll find the outbound platform is tucked away. Although in 2024 the station is having an upgrade, so watch this space. Stock up on provisions before you go through passport control. The area around the station is busy so take normal precautions, including looking out for trams and cyclists , who have right-of-way no matter what.

At Brussels Midi Station, you may notice a police presence due to heightened security in Europe. The station area is fairly safe, but it can feel less so after dark with fewer people around.

For Lille and Rotterdam , both smaller cities, the stations where the Eurostar alights are centrally located with shops, cafes and sights nearby. Public transport is easy to navigate, but these are also very walkable cities (if you're not carrying a lot of luggage).

First time visiting France? Here’s what you should know

Suitcases and wheelie bags stacked on a luggage rack on board a train

What can I take on the Eurostar?

You can take two bags up to 85cm/33.5in (at its widest/ longest point), plus one piece of hand luggage on the Eurostar. There’s no weight limit, but you do need to be able to lift your bags onto the train and potentially up to the rack above your seat.

There is luggage storage space at the end of carriages, but be aware that as we passed through Brussels on our way to Amsterdam, announcements were made to keep an eye on your belongings as thieves have been known to lighten the train’s load.

The best bit of traveling by train compared to flying: there are no restrictions on liquids. You can take all the products and bottled water you like (note that there is nowhere to refill on board). And if you’re up for a tipple, you can take one bottle of wine or bubbly or four cans of beer on board – except for during some major events, but you’ll get notified if that’s the case. 

What else should I bring on the Eurostar?

There are UK and European plug sockets to recharge phones and laptops, although there are no USB sockets with Standard class seats. BYO book or download content to your devices in advance as the wi-fi and phone signal drops out regularly.

A small selection of food and drinks in a buffet car on a train

Can I buy food onboard the Eurostar?

There is a cafe carriage selling snacks and light meals for Standard class travelers (Premium classes get a meal delivered to their seats like on a plane). The menu changes twice a year, but the options are limited, so it’s often better to bring your own food, especially if you have dietary restrictions.

Buy your train supplies before you pass through passport control as the options inside the terminal at St Pancras were very busy the morning we traveled, while at Paris and Amsterdam they’re virtually non-existent.

What can’t I take with me on the Eurostar?

There’s a list of things you cannot take on the Eurostar on the website , most of which follow common sense: firearms, flammables, illegal drugs…. Perishable items like meat, fish and dairy are also on the list, but I am sure I could smell some scrumptious Dutch cheese in somebody’s bag on our way home! 

Sadly taking a bike with you is a lot harder than one would hope, given the increase in interest in cycling to get around and cycling holidays in Europe. For full-sized bikes, you need to pre-book passage and disassemble your bike to check it in as luggage. Folding bikes and children’s bikes can be brought on board with you, but they need to be in a protective bag.

Do I need to print my Eurostar tickets?

Print your ticket out if you want a paper back up, but you can scan tickets directly from the Eurostar app at arrival gates. If your seat has changed for whatever reason, a fresh paper ticket will be printed for you at the gate.

Next, you move onto border control via security, like you do at an international airport.

Do I need a visa as well as my passport?

Make sure you are up-to-date on what documents you need for European travel, which varies by nationality. 

As well as your passport, from late 2024 biometric information (a face scan or fingerprints) will be collected at European borders, which is expected to slow down the check-in process and may have a knock-on effect on the number of passengers that can be booked and processed per train.

Also note that from 2025, all non-EU citizens (that includes the British, obviously) will need an ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorisation System) – a €7 visa-waiver scheme like the US ESTA – to enter Europe.

Wondering about your visa situation? We have guidance for France , the UK and Belgium

Do you really need to get there 90 minutes before your Eurostar train departs?

Yes, you really do. Cutting it fine can work out, but there are sometimes multiple trains from St Pancras, so queues can build quickly. Also seating inside terminals is limited, so do yourself a favor and get there on time.

What happens if I miss my train?

This has happened to me (or should I say, yes, I did this to myself), and Eurostar kindly rebooked our group on the next service headed to Paris. However we did lose our seat bookings and found ourselves in the backward-facing seats with no window views on the later train. Luckily the cafe carriage has large windows, so we congregated there for most of the journey.

How do you choose seats?

You’ll be allocated seats with your booking, but you can change these online or via the app. I recommend you do that as soon as you can because (as mentioned) there are seats on the Eurostar with no or partial views, and while 30 minutes is under the Channel, the rest of the journey is a chance to see the changing landscape.

Some Eurostar travelers also recommend bringing some kitchen towels or wet wipes and giving your window a clean – inside and out if you can – to improve the view.

Are there sleeper trains from London?

You’ve probably seen the headlines about Europe’s new golden age of train travel with more passengers embracing the greener alternative to short-haul flights. In 2024 there has been an uptick in sleeper train services in Europe, with new overnight routes from Paris to Berlin and Vienna to Hamburg on ÖBB's Nightjet. 

There’s talk of the European Sleeper company connecting London to its night services via the Eurostar, so watch this space. And a sleeper train direct from London to further European cities may well be on the horizon.

Despite the challenges Brexit has put in its path, Eurostar maintains its ambitions to reach 30 million passengers by 2030. Given the London-to-Paris train journey emits 10 times less carbon per passenger compared to flying (22kg of CO2 per person versus 224kg of CO2), it really does make sense to get to and from Europe by rail.

The sleeper train is back – here are eight of the most romantic journeys

S nuggling between crisp clean sheets, reading by the glow of your berth light as steel wheel swishes on steel rail beneath you – for over a century, the sleeper train has been the most romantic way to cross Europe. Once commonplace, they’ve struggled in the shadow of budget airlines since the 1990s. Their nadir came in 2016, when the largest operator, Deutsche Bahn (German railways), pulled the plug on its City Night Line sleeper network, claiming it was impossible to make sleeper trains work commercially.

However, a much smaller operator stepped in and took a huge risk: ÖBB (Österreichische Bundesbahnen, Austrian railways) bought DB’s sleeping-cars and took over many of its routes, rebranding them and its own sleeper routes Nightjet .  The gamble paid off. ÖBB is now the largest sleeper operator in Europe and the Nightjet network is in the black. As climate-conscious travellers increasingly seek a time-effective alternative to flying, ÖBB has cautiously expanded its sleeper routes, reinstating sleepers from Vienna to Amsterdam, Brussels, Paris and Berlin and from Amsterdam to Zurich.  They often leave fully booked.  

ÖBB is now investing in new trains and in December 2023 the first of 33 brand-new Nightjets entered service from Hamburg to Vienna, Munich and Innsbruck. These smart new sleeper trains feature a toilet and shower in all one- and two-bed sleepers, traditional four-berth couchettes for families and friends, and innovative individual ‘mini cabins’ reminiscent of Japanese capsule hotels for those who want a bed and privacy, on a budget.

ÖBB is not the only operator reinstating sleepers. France has restored overnight trains from Paris to Nice and Lourdes.  Italy is ordering new sleeper trains. Start-up train operator European Sleeper introduced a new overnight train from Brussels and Amsterdam to Berlin in May 2023 and extended it to Prague in March this year. 

A Hamburg-Stockholm sleeper has also been procured by the Swedish government to provide a time-effective rail link between Germany and the home of Flygskam (‘flight shame’), later extended to and from Berlin. I rode the inaugural departure in September 2022, which was not without its teething problems – rolling stock to expand sleeper services is scarce and the refurbished sleeping cars weren’t ready in time. But the couchettes were comfortable, my travel companion and I chatted over wine until midnight, slept well and woke to sunlit Swedish countryside before rolling into the Swedish capital bang on time. It reminded me why I love sleepers and why I’m glad they’re here to stay. A far more enjoyable experience than a flight with a fraction of the emissions, and by leaving in the evening and arriving next morning they take up fewer daytime hours than flying. And bunk beds on a train, what’s not to like?

Here are eight of the best overnight lines – two in Britain and six beyond.

1. Fall asleep in London, wake up in Cornwall

Imagine your favourite Cornish B&B, on wheels. Leaving Paddington station before midnight daily except Saturdays, the Night Riviera has cosy one- and two-bed rooms, a convivial lounge car and great staff. Wake to Truro cathedral and St Michael’s Mount before pulling into sunny Penzance.

The details: From £125.40 for a single room, £114.90 per person for a twin ( gwr.com ). Plan the perfect holiday in Cornwall with our guide.

2. Fall asleep in London, wake up in the West Highlands

The Caledonian Sleeper leaves London Euston at 21:00 Monday-Friday and 21:15 on Sundays for Fort William, at the foot of Ben Nevis. Enjoy haggis, neeps and tatties in the lounge as you leave the Big Smoke, then wake to gnarled oak trees, bubbling burns and deer bounding away from the train. Caledonian Double rooms even boast a double bed, toilet and shower.

The details: From £140 for a single room, £170 for a twin ( sleeper.scot ). Plan the perfect holiday in Scotland with our guide.

3. Fall asleep in Paris, wake up in Nice (or Cannes) 

Today’s incarnation of the fabled Train Bleu leaves Paris Austerlitz at 20:08, with first-class four-berth couchettes and second-class six-berth couchettes. Wake to rocky headlands, yacht-filled bays and millionaires’ villas as the train snakes along the Cote d’Azur to reach Cannes at 08:57, Nice at 09:25. 

The details: From €29 (£25) in a second-class couchette, €69 (£60) in a first-class couchette ( sncf-connect.com ). Plan the perfect trip to Nice with our guide.

4. Fall asleep in Paris, wake up in Salzburg

The details: Eurostar from £52 one-way ( eurostar.com ). Nightjet from €59.90 (£52) with couchette, or €159.90 (£139) in a single sleeper, breakfast included ( oebb.at ). Plan the perfect trip to Salzburg with our guide.

5. Fall asleep in Milan, wake up in Sicily

Western Europe’s longest sleeper ride, the InterCity Notte to Sicily leaves the magnificent Milan Centrale station at 20:10 every night, with sleeping-cars and couchettes for Palermo, Catania and Syracuse, arriving the following afternoon. The train is shunted onto a ferry to cross the Straits of Messina to Sicily, a unique experience.

The details: From €39.90 (£35) in a four-berth couchette or €89.90 (£78) in a single-bed sleeper ( trenitalia.com ). Plan the perfect trip to Sicily with our guide.

6. Fall asleep in Brussels, wake up in Vienna

The details:  Eurostar from £52 one-way ( eurostar.com ). Nightjet from €59.90 (£51.50) with couchette or €159.90 (£138) in a single sleeper, breakfast included ( oebb.at) . Plan the perfect trip to Vienna with our guide.

8. Fall asleep in Berlin, wake up in Stockholm

The SJ EuroNight train leaves Berlin Gesundbrunnen at 18:37 daily, arriving at Stockholm Central at 09:57 the next morning. It has four- and six-berth couchettes and one- and two-bed sleepers, some with a shower and loo. In Stockholm, the amazing Vasa Museum ( www.vasamuseet.se ) is worth the journey on its own.
