Paris CDG to Laroche-Migennes

I am travelling in a party of3 going to Laroche-Migennes (end of August). We were going to get RER train from CDG to Gare du Nord, then a taxi to Gare du Bercy. Then RER train to Laroche-Migennes.

Is there anyway I can get the tickets in advance

None of us has much French

Thanks

It%26#39;s just a local train. You can buy your tickets off the SNCF website (www.voyages-sncf.com) but you would have to pick them up at a station anyway -- and you can do that at the train station at CDG.

No point in taking a taxi from Gare du Nord unless you enjoy taxis. You can take the RER to Denfert-Rochereau and transfer to metro line 6, which will take you to Bercy.

note: the train to Laroche-Migennes in not an RER. It is a TER.

|||

Thanks for help, the taxi was mentioned in an earlier forum and it sounded good for us pensioners who struggle with luggage.

|||

... in which case, you would still be better off staying on the RER until Denfert-Rochereau to avoid having to cross the entire city by taxi.

You get the Laroche Migennes train from Gare do Lyon

|||

To clear up any confusion, nine out of ten trains to L-M DO leave from BERCY. The few that leave from Gare de Lyon take up to an hour longer for the trip.

Timetables at voyages-sncf.com or bahn.de if you find that one easier to use. Only the French site will display fares.

Thanks for your reply - I read it on my return.

We found the journey very easy but tiring with all the walking at CDG to the train depot.

Paris CDG to Bercy (trains ran every 8 minutes); Taxi to Gare du Nord (13 euros worth every penny);

then train to Larouche-Migennes (trains ran every hour).

It was even easier on the return as the Taxi driver from Bercy gave us a good fare straight back to CDG
