Train

Eurostar

Eurostar to Paris (2h30m) is available, you can then take a connecting train to Avignon (TGV - 2h30m). Eurostar is already bookable (and fully refundable), the Avignon train is not available yet (it tends to open up ~ 20 weeks before) - we're hoping it will be available in late March, early April.
