Practical tips
Before paying more for a train ticket, check the table on this page: if the time difference is small, the bus saves you money without costing you much. Decide based on whether price or time matters most to you.
In Paris, buses may leave from different places depending on the operator. Reread your e-ticket the day before and locate the exact address on a map so you do not go to the wrong stop on departure day.
Note where the bus drops you off in Blois before leaving: bus station, city stop or near the train station. This saves you from searching for your way with luggage, especially if you arrive late.
The lowest fares go first, especially on Fridays, Sunday evenings and during school holidays. Book as soon as your dates are set and keep your e-ticket downloaded on your phone.
For the way back, choose a departure that leaves you some margin before your next connection, and do not rely on the very last bus of the day. Arrive at the departure point a little early.
