Paris to Piedmont travel info
I hope to spend 3 days in Paris and then head off to Piedmont, returning from Milan 2 weeks later. Any suggestions on the best ways to travel from Paris to Piedmont, e.g., fast trains or fly? Suggestions on websites to make these reservations? [Since I will be driving all through Piedmont, the "landing" city from Paris is not important.]
Thanks -

Do you mean "Piemonte", the area around Torino in Northeast Italy?
What time of year will you go? (It's important, because the most spectacular route is to take the "route des grandes alpes", however only open in summer.

Bella - For budget flights check Easyjet.
They fly Paris Orly to Turin as well as Milan Linate.
Also Paris CDG to Milan Malpensa.
www.easyjet.com
Hope this helps ...

Ryanair has very cheap flights from Paris to Milan, but in both cases the airport is way out of town. Check on www.trenitalia.com for trains, there is an English international version, sometimes they are having Torino - Parigi specials.

LaBellaDonna is writing in English. So presumably she means Piedmont: the word we use in English (as we have for centuries) to describe the area of which Turin is the capital.
The rest of us can understand English. Can't you?

You could also take the train from Paris to Turin.

Hi. are you considering renting a car. If not I'd fly to milan or Turin and then rent a car. To really get around the piedmont area {like Tuscany} you need a rental car or go on a tour. The train stations are fairly spred out. The best places are reached by car. I would recommend staying around the La Morra, Barolo area it ws very pretty.
