TGV Trains – Information & Tours

Introduced in 1981, France's TGV (Train à Grande Vitesse) was the original European high-speed train. Linking Paris with Lyon, the new service revolutionised train travel and meant that travelling by air over medium and short distances was no longer seen as the best option, even for business travel.

The network has expanded rapidly and today these sleek, stylish trains offer links to over 60 destinations throughout France. Operated by SNCF, the French national rail operator, TGV trains travel over specially-constructed high speed lines. The trains can achieve speeds of up to 186mph (300km/h) on most long distance routes and 200mph (320km/h) on the new TGV Est line, which links Paris with Strasbourg, Luxembourg and Basel. With the exception of shorter journeys, TGVs almost always have an on-board buffet car, serving a selection of drinks and light refreshments.

“It was a really good experience and full of interest except for two items. The first day was tiring due to a walking tour and scenic boat excursion following a long day's travel. The Tarte flambe evening in an Alsatian restaurant did not compare well with superior on-board meals.

“Some great sights, beautiful train excursions into the Alps. Hotels ok but no air conditioning in the heatwave, just noisy room fans. Food ok in Chur, but nothing special. Food better in Brig and just 1 authentic Swiss dish.
