You can get there by TGV in 5 hours. Or you can take an overnight train that takes 8 hours. Or you can fly in about 1.5 hours, but I never did fly. I only took the trains.<BR><BR>I prefer the 5 hour day trip to the overnight trip. But the overnight trip was quite an experience.<BR><BR>If you take an overnight train, consider paying extra for 1st class sleeper if you are clostrophobic.<BR><BR>I completely forget the cost of the train rides. But I do remember that the couchette for the overnight trip cost about an additional $20 USD. Also, the hotels and restaurants in Lourdes are drastically cheaper than Paris.

Hello, victor. My husband and I went to Lourdes from Paris last May. We took the TGV from Montparnasse. The trip was about 5 hours. The cost was 103euros round trip for the two of us. I think the train left around 10:00 A.M.<BR>Have a great trip!
