The TGV: BEST Way to Travel from PARIS to MONTPELLIER Sud de France
After taking a ten-hour overnight Flixbus from Montpellier in the South of France to Paris, we return on the TGV, France's famous high-speed train. This is by far the best, most comfortable way to travel on public transport in France. I did a video previously showing a first class TGV seat, and this time I'm travelling with Fiona in second class.
In this video you'll get to see Paris's Gare de Lyon (the main Paris station that serves the South of France) the inside of the train, views of Paris from the train's window, the seats, the toilets and the Sud de France TGV station in Montpellier.

What's the FLIXBUS to PARIS really like? 10 hours overnight!

Following on from the last video, in which I endured a 31-hour return journey on a Flixbus from Montpellier in the south of France to Cologne in Germany, this time I opted for a slightly more gentle trip. Fiona and I took a Flixbus to Paris just before Christmas, an overnight trip of "only" ten hours from Montpellier. I show you everything about it, including boarding, the seats, charging facil...

14 hours there, 17 hours back. I took a return Flixbus from Montpellier in the south of France to Cologne in the west of Germany to experience the cheapest way to travel long distance in Europe. The cost may be low, but is it worth saving money to spend so long on the road?

What to do in Montpellier on a budget - climbing Pic Saint Loup, getting there by bus

CYCLING from Montpellier to Palavas! 19km ride in 33 degree heat - the paths, the beach, the town

    Thanks for the video. OuiGo (Not to be confused with InOui) is very much the budget version of the TGV and the amount of luggage you are allowed onboard is limited unless you pay a supplement. That supplement is however only about 5 euro and enables you to bring a medium sized suitcase. The space for larger luggage is though limited and the overhead racks are too small for anything other than hand luggage. Larger luggage racks are generally available at the ends of the carriages. My recent experience of OuiGo from Lille to Marseilles and back is that they are very popular and can get crowded. Arriving at the station in good time is therefore recommended (Joining at the start of the line in Lille or Marseilles the time it takes to walk the length of the train to your carriage can take time and with luggage space is at a premium it may be full). For 29 euro each way (Bought well in advance when SNCF were offering special fares, the cost was excellent though. (Journey time about 4.5 hours) The WiFi onboard is also much better than on UK Trains!

    At 11:00, the people you saw wearing red and white in the cafe car are surely going to Bayonne next to Biarritz for the Bayonne festival which occur every summer for several days and nights. It's always packed with a lot of young people (wearing red and white for the occasion) drinking all the time, so it's really famous and a period to avoid. I think it can explain why there was so many people during your TGV trip between Bordeaux and Biarritz
