Hey everyone

This question concerns most of you. I was wondering how much does a train ticket cost from Paris to Amsterdam, Paris to London, Paris to Madrid, (if possible)? And also from Amsterdam to Paris etc. I'm just curious...

Let me know when you can...

Paris - Madrid
No price available on the Internet, just the time it takes... 13 hours in the same train, with restaurant, and bed, apparently really comfortable.

Paris - Amsterdam
101 € in 4h11

Paris - London
232,50 € in 2h36

And this is the same to go back... same prices.

But I'm sure you can have other prices -because you are a student- and maybe other reductions can be taken into account too! That's just to give an idea... Airplane can sometimes be less expansive...

Thank you so much for the information.

It really gives me a good indication of the prices and how long it takes to get to one of the particular countries.

I have to really take a look at it and make a decision as to when and how I'm going to visit everyone...

I think sometimes the airplane could be much more interesting, depending on whereas you can find a promotion or not... Easyjet has really nice prices sometimes, you can fly to London, from France, for 25€ for example... but I have to search for the information about other destinations...

Hey!!
paris-madrid by train is not a good idea, it takes a very long time as celia said, and it´s more expensive than an airplane ticket, with which you can be in madrid in just two hours.
I´ve found tickets madrid-paris-madrid for 85 € (I guess paris-madrid-paris will be similar), and I´ve been told that you can find it for less than that, if you know where to look for it. Try with low-cost companies, like vueling, easy-jet, ryan-air, spanair...
And remeber as sooner you get the ticket, as cheaper it will be.
Good luck!
