Reims to Nice, help please!

Is there a train from Reims to Nice?



Thanks!

You%26#39;d kind of have to go through Paris.

If you are travelling after June 10 the TGV from Reims to Paris will take ~45 minutes. Prior to the inaugauration of the TGV Est on that date it will take you 1.5 hours plus. Then you need to get from Gare de l%26#39;Est to Gare de Lyon for the 5.5-6 hour TGV ride to Nice.

Another option would be to fly from Paris to Nice with EasyJet: www.easyjet.com

I%26#39;ve only read this message today, so this may be too late. There is one direct train from Reims to Nice, a little-known overnight one. It is train number NZ4287, dep. Reims 20:19, arr Nice-Ville 08:20 next morning. It has seat, sleeper and couchette accommodation (or at least, it had when I last saw it). However, outside the peak July - August season it does not run every night. I find the German railways website the best source of such information: far better than anything in France: just ask Google for %26quot;Bahn%26quot; and, once in, select the English language option if you%26#39;re not comfortable in German.



Bon voyage. Bert B.
