Train journeys form Calais to Paris?

Question

Is there a direct train journey from Calais to Paris?

How much does it cost?

Are there any stations in the Pas De Calais region were I can just turn up and get on a train to Paris without having to book in advance?

Answer 1

There is only one direct train to Paris in the early afternoon. Otherwise there are trains all day with one transfer via Lille or some other town. Just show up at one of the two Calais train stations.

- Calais Ville (in the town center):

- Calais Fréthun (4 miles outside Calais, near the exit of the Channel Tunnel)

The price will depend on when you are leaving.For same day bookings it ranges between 40 € and 60 € (always cheaper to book online and early).
