Travelling To And Around Paris

Our packages are based on Eurostar’s high speed train service between St Pancras and Gare du Nord, taking you to Paris in under 3 hours. The train times are as detailed below. The prices are only valid on these trains, others can be booked at a supplement of approximately £80 per person. If you would prefer to fly, please call for a quote.

From the Gare du Nord you can easily reach your hotel by Metro or taxi. Public transport is frequent, on time and good value and to save time, we recommend you purchase a ‘Paris Visite’ Pass, which allows unlimited travel on all bus, Metro and RER express Metro systems.

Travelling to Longchamp

Longchamp, the home of the Prix de l'Arc, is easily reached by metro and you will receive comprehensive instructions before you travel. Rather than having to leave your hotel early by coach, you can enjoy Sunday morning in Paris before making your own way, in your own time to the race course.
