Russethouse Posted June 26, 2004 Share Posted June 26, 2004 How long should I allow to get from Gare du Nord (presume this is where Eurostar comes in ?)to get to Montpasse to catch the train to Quimper - probably by taxi - I don't 'do' metroGayhttp://www.quimperclub.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcazar Posted June 26, 2004 Share Posted June 26, 2004 It will depend on the time of day, of course, the 10 minute run across Paris at night takes an hour or more at rush hour.Personally, I'd allow AT LEAST an hour from arrival time of your Eurostar to departure time of train from Montparnasse. It might even be better to say 90 minutes: it's far better to allow for possible late arrival, taxi delays etc, then to miss your allocated service, and have to try and get another seat.I always prefer a leisurely coffee at a station bistro to a panicky dash to try and catch my trainAlcazar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
