Update on TGV Service
 
We used the Paris-Avignon TGV service in September for the first time and found it excellent.<BR><BR>Could you tell me if there is TGV service between Nice and Paris and how long is the trip? And, between Bordeaux and Paris and how long is that trip?<BR><BR>Thanks.

Paris to Bordeaux is just about 3 hours, give or take a little depending on how many stops the TGV makes.

Yes to both trips. To Nice about 6 1/2 hours from Gare de Lyon. To Bordeaux from 3 to 3 1/2 hours depending on the train from Gare Montparnasse.For more Paris information go to www.anamericaninparis.com

Anthony:<BR>Some TGV's do Paris-Nice in 5:41 hrs.<BR>Remember that on the last leg (Marseille-Nice) they have to drive slower as this is not yet upgraded.<BR>Same as on the Tours to Bordeaux stretch.<BR>
