Volume on the trainWe travelled to Paris as a holiday. The option of travelling by TGV was very fast and good, we had also looked at travelling by plane, but as the children didn't have much time to get to the airport after school, we travelled by train. The best thing about the journey was the internet and the worst thing was the noise on the train. I travelled in the evening and the journey was very comfortable! The train and the toilet were very clean. I used the charger during the journey, the Wi-Fi and watched a film, everything went very well. The train was on time, but we had nothing to do with the service. There was an on-board restaurant, but I didn't use it. I paid 47.00 Fr. for the ticket, it was good value for money.
