    Located in the heart of the 10th arrondissement and ten minutes' walk from Gare de l'Est, Gare du Nord is Europe's leading railway station and the world's 3rd largest in terms of traffic flows, welcoming over 220 million visitors a year. Trains depart from the north of France, but also serve international destinations such as London via Eurostar, or Belgium and the Netherlands via Thalys. It was inaugurated on 14 June 1846 with the opening of the Paris-Amiens-Lille line. Today we admire its modern neoclassical style and its majestic façade decorated with twenty-three statues by famous sculptors.
    It is made up of four main areas: the Eurostar Terminal - 6.6 million passengers - offering shops for pleasure and gifts; the Quai Transversal is the lively heart of the station offering a varied Parisian and international catering service; levels -1 and - 2 - where hundreds of thousands of passengers pass through every day on the numerous metro and RER lines - offering a range of services adapted to everyday travellers.

      You can go to the Office desk of the subway (RATP), they will explain and sell you Navigo
      And, they are implementing machines where you can buy directly the Navigo Easy (a card, no photo, 2€) where you can charge your day ticket. If you plan to use the subway a lot during a day, buy Paris VISITE ticket to travel all day. (Zone 1-2 inside Paris, zone 3 to 5 outside Paris).
      If it is only for 1 or 2 times a day, buy a paper ticket (no need Navigo). Paper ticket is ~2.10€. (Or more, it is changing every time).
      Well it will be 4€ for one ticket during the Olympics… 😅. Buy the ticket before the Olympic if you can.

    Im in Canada and would like to purchase advance tickets. Is there a service you recommend to book tickets? I will be coming from Amsterdam via Thalys then walk to Saint Lazare to catch a train to Caen. Then back again 2 days later. Any suggestions?

    • @leonardsheatravel
      @leonardsheatravel  11 месяцев назад +8

      Tough question. There is no one site on line to buy all your train tickets for multiple countries that is not third party. People suggest your buy the train ticket from the country of origin of the trip.....so you would buy it from the Netherlands country train site and then I guess the return would be from France? Another option is a Eurail pass depending on how many train trips you take in one month. Not an easy answer. Omio or Trainline are two sites people have used and they charge a few euros per ticket for the convenience but I have not used them before. Let me know what you do. Good luck!

      @@leonardsheatravel Hi, I went with Rail Europe. A site like Omio. Thalys to Paris Nord...then 90 mins to get to Saint Lazare so Ill walk there. Then train to Caen. then I will taxi or rent a car to Courselles for a day. I have a room there for 2 nights. Then do the reverse 2 days later but I will have 2.5 hours between trains so I may take a quick bus tour if thats a possibility. Thank you for your videos!

    Thank you for this video. I'm thinking about taking the Eurostar to London for a day trip, with no luggage. Traveling solo, and coming back after dark, in February. Is it safe to try to get a taxi or Uber from Gare du Nord at night? Is the taxi line in front of the main entrance? Thanks.

    What time is the tax refund officers open?

    • @user-cd6oh2vd2x
      @user-cd6oh2vd2x 9 месяцев назад +6

      If you are going to the UK, you go upstairs through the Bristish blue train part of Eurostar customs and checkin, and once you have done that on the right is a bank of machines which you take your paperwork to for you tax refund, and the machine scans and stamps your paperwork. There are customs people on hand if you get stuck. You then follow the instructions for your refund to go into your bank account. But basically its open for as long as there are trains. I believe that these are the only machines for doing this in the station as you have to be departing the EU in order to do this. Hence this will be open when you are at the station.

      When you get off the train, look for the ticket windows where they have attendants. They were very helpful. I tried to buy them from the ticket machine but I couldn't figure it out because it was in French and the machine I got didn't have the button in English.
