For those of
you who prefer to leave your car at home, train is a
good alternative.
It's worth
bearing in mind that if you take the evening train
both ways then you may benefit from up to 8 days of
skiing instead of the usual 6.
We can
arrange two train options - direct Ski Train or Eurostar Beyond (with a change
at Paris).
Private taxi
transfers from the stations to resorts can also be
pre-booked with us.

Eurostar
Beyond
This enables
you to leave London on either the Friday evening or
the Saturday morning with Eurostar direct trains from
London St Pancreas (or Ashford International) to
Paris and then take a connecting train.
London St
Pancras International to Paris Gare du Nord: 2 hours 20
minutes.
We will
advise you at time of booking of the best timetables,
leaving plenty of time to change stations in Paris,
as Eurostar arrives at Gare du Nord and the
TGV/Express trains leave from Gare de Lyon. You have to make
your own way between the two. Allow 1 hour for
transferring by underground to Gare de Lyon).
Please note
that TGV French sections of the itineraries via Paris
can only be booked 3 months ahead of actual travel
dates.
