Practical tips
Before paying, put the bus and the train side by side for your exact date. The price gap can be large, and the time saved does not always justify the difference for your budget.
In Montauban, the departure spot depends on the operator. Open your e-ticket, note the exact address of the stop or bus station, and find it on a map before you leave.
Paris has several possible arrival points for buses. Check the exact name of the place on your ticket, especially if you then have a train, accommodation or a connection to reach.
Read the trip details before confirming: some departures are direct, others include a change. In that case, check the connection time and where you need to board the second bus.
Low fares go fast and the last departures of the day fill up. Book in advance, keep your ticket on your phone, and allow a margin if you have a connection afterwards.
