Want to visit Reims without the hassle? Here's how to get there simply, quickly and without blowing your budget!

Reims is a very well-connected city, whether you're coming from Paris, Strasbourg, Lille or even abroad. Thanks to Tictactrip, you can compare and book your train, bus or carpooling journey in one click.

🚆 By train

The fastest and most eco-friendly way to reach Reims is without doubt the train. The city has two stations: Reims-Centre station, right in the city centre, and Champagne-Ardenne TGV station, located in Bezannes and connected by tram.

From Paris, it's just 45 minutes by TGV from Gare de l'Est or even directly from Charles de Gaulle airport. It's convenient, comfortable and low carbon!

🚌 By bus

If you're looking for an economical option, the bus is ideal. Companies like FlixBus offer up to 16 departures a day between Paris and Reims, for a journey of 2 to 3 hours. Other connections also exist from Lille, Nancy or Metz.

🚗 By car or carpool

Reims is accessible via the A4 (Paris-Strasbourg) and A26 (Calais-Troyes) motorways. If you're coming by car, watch out for the Low Emission Zone (ZFE), which requires a Crit'Air sticker (category 1 to 3).

And if you'd prefer a more responsible option, consider carpooling with platforms like BlaBlaCar. Cheaper, more eco-friendly, and often very sociable!

✈️ By plane? Yes, but...

Reims doesn't have a commercial airport, but you can fly into Paris Charles de Gaulle, then take a direct TGV to Champagne-Ardenne station in just 30 minutes.

Once there, public transport (trams, buses) makes getting around town easy.


Now that you know how to get to Reims without breaking the bank, let me tell you a bit about its fascinating history.

Reims, located in the Marne department and the Grand Est region, is a city steeped in history. Its postcode is 51100. With a population of around 180,000, it's a lively city that's not short on charm.

Reims covers an area of around 47 square kilometres. Just imagine, it's like having a huge playground to explore!

The history of Reims dates back to Gallo-Roman times, and it has played a major role in France's history. Known notably for its famous cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Reims was the coronation site of many kings of France.

This is where Joan of Arc led Charles VII for his coronation in 1429, a historic moment that has marked the city forever.
