The TGV Inoui escort service - Junior & Cie

For your peace of mind, TGV INOUI offers the Junior & Cie service, designed for young travellers. This service looks after children aged 4 to 14 inclusive, ensuring a safe and lively group journey.

Our escorts welcome your children at the meeting point in the station and check them in.

On arrival, your child will be handed over to the designated guardian, who must show ID.
