Aix-en-Provence TGV Station Transfers

Arriving at Aix-en-Provence TGV: what to expect

The station stands on its own on the Arbois plateau, surrounded by scrubland and car parks, with no town around it. So when you step off the TGV, you need to know how you are getting to your final destination. Coach shuttles run to central Aix and to the airport, but not to villages or countryside rentals.

With a pre-booked private driver, it is straightforward:

• Tell us your train and final address when you request a quote.
• Your driver tracks the TGV and adjusts if it runs late, with no charge for delay-related waiting.
• You are met at the station exit with a name sign, and your luggage is taken care of.
• The price is fixed, confirmed before you book.

Aix TGV or Avignon TGV: which station for Gordes and the northern Luberon?

For Gordes, Roussillon or L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, Avignon TGV station is often more convenient; Aix-en-Provence TGV remains the closer choice for the south (Lourmarin, Cucuron, Ansouis, Pertuis). The Luberon hills split the area in two, and the roads across them are winding, so picking the right station can save you a good half-hour.

Approximate drive times from Aix TGV, outside rush hour:

• Marseille-Provence Airport: about 15 minutes.
• Aix-en-Provence city centre: about 20 minutes.
• Lourmarin and the southern Luberon: about 45 minutes.
• Gordes, Bonnieux: about 1 hour.
• Avignon: about 1 hour.

What is there to see around Aix?

Aix-en-Provence

The Cours Mirabeau with its fountains and cafés, the pedestrian lanes of the old town, and morning markets on the central squares. Aix is also Cézanne's city; his studio, north of the centre, is open to visitors.

Montagne Sainte-Victoire

You will see it from the motorway as you arrive. Villages at its foot, such as Le Tholonet, are good for a short stop or a walk.

The southern Luberon

Lourmarin and its Renaissance château, Cucuron with its large plane-tree-lined pond, and the hilltop village of Ansouis. On market days the villages are lively and parking is tight, so your driver drops you at the entrance and picks you up at the same spot.
