Practical tips
Check the table on this page to compare duration and price. The bus is often the cheapest, but if you're in a hurry, also look at other modes before confirming your booking.
On your ticket, find the exact name of the departure stop or bus station. A stop can be next to the train station rather than inside it. Open the map before you leave.
Paris has several bus arrival points. Note the one on your ticket and plan your onward metro or train ride, especially if you have a connection afterwards.
The lowest fares go fast on popular departures, especially on Fridays and Sundays. Book as soon as your dates are set to avoid paying more at the last minute.
Buses can be delayed by traffic. If you have an onward train or bus abroad, keep a generous buffer and avoid taking the last departure of the day.
