With TGV to the Swiss and French Alps

Geneva is beautifully located at the Lake of Geneva and the narrow little streets around the centuries old Place du Bourg du Four in the centre encourage you to wander around for hours.

Chambery is the gateway to kilometres of white slopes. In no time you'll be in the major ski resorts of Albertville, Tignes and Val Thorens. If you want something else: in Aix les Bains, guests can relax in the thermal baths.

Changing trains in Paris

If you are travelling to France with TGV you will have to change trains in Paris. With Eurostar you will travel from Amsterdam Central Station, Schiphol and Rotterdam Central Station on the high-speed track to Paris Gare du Nord. There you take the metro. Metro tickets are available at the bar carriage on Eurostar or from the vending machines at the stations. Your layover in Paris is about an hour; the booking module takes this into account.

To Genève en Chambéry

From Paris Gare du Nord take the RER line D towards Corbeil Essonnes, to Paris Gare de Lyon station, where TGVs depart to several destinations in the (South-)East of France. More information on the transfer can also be found on the page about transit stations.

Do you need to wait a while for your TGV connection? At Paris Gare du Nord, you will find a large number of facilities to make the wait more pleasant.

Rates TGV

TGV has different pricing levels. Prices depend on the time of booking (early booking is cheaper!) and the flexibility of the ticket relating to rebook and cancel. TGV can be booked three months in advance. SNCF sometimes extends this for 4-5 months, you can see this in the booking module.
