Within minutes we write to you through WhatsApp with the departures that day, the seats we can hold and the price. Once you confirm and payment is arranged in the same conversation, we issue the ticket and send it to you as a PDF or a booking reference, whichever the rail company uses.
- Step 1 - fill out the form: date, one-way or return, adults and children, class
- Step 2 - we message you by WhatsApp with the available departures, the seats and the cost
- Step 3 - you confirm the departure you prefer and we arrange payment in the same chat

Timetable of the Paris to Strasbourg train
Departures on the Paris to Strasbourg line are spread across the day (about hourly), all operated by SNCF TGV inOui and Ouigo. Allow about 1 hour 46 minutes on board, and remember that as a direct train there is no connection to miss. Let us know on the form whether you prefer morning, midday or evening and we send the exact times for your travel date.
We recommend booking a specific departure rather than an open ticket on this route: the fare is lower and the seat is guaranteed. If your day changes, we can usually move you to another train through the same WhatsApp chat.
Is there a direct train from Paris to Strasbourg?
There is a direct train from Paris to Strasbourg operated by SNCF TGV inOui and Ouigo, and it is the one we book unless you ask for something different. One ticket covers the whole journey; you keep your seat from Paris Gare de l'Est to Strasbourg; children and luggage stay in one place. It runs about hourly.
Departure: Paris Gare de l'Est
Your journey starts at Paris Gare de l'Est. Platforms on long-distance routes are announced shortly before departure, so watch the boards; larger stations have separate halls for high-speed and regional trains, and we tell you which one applies to your ticket. The RER B from CDG and the Orlyval-RER from Orly reach the centre in 35-50 minutes, and they are fine for a light traveller, but they end with stairs, gates and a metro change with luggage; Roissybus and Orlybus stop at fixed points. A car takes the périphérique straight to the hotel door, and to Disneyland or Versailles directly.
- Luggage travels with you: racks at the coach ends and above the seats, no weighing, no fees
- Cafés, kiosks and left-luggage are available at Paris Gare de l'Est for early arrivals
- Haqqi Tours provides a private transfer from your hotel in Paris to the station on request
- Let us know which hall or level your train leaves from - big stations have more than one
Arrival: Strasbourg
The train arrives at Strasbourg - Strasbourg is the Alsatian capital on the Rhine, with the cathedral, the half-timbered Petite France and the European Parliament. From the platform you are minutes from taxis, metro, tram or bus and the city itself. Haqqi Tours can provide a private transfer from Strasbourg to your accommodation in Strasbourg with a driver waiting at the platform exit, which for a family with bags is the easiest way to finish the Paris to Strasbourg journey.
Many passengers continue from Strasbourg to somewhere else the next day. We provide those tickets too, so one WhatsApp conversation covers the whole itinerary.
Classes and what it is like on board the Paris to Strasbourg train
What is the train from Paris to Strasbourg like inside? Modern coaches with reserved seats, tables for two or four, racks for suitcases, sockets and typically Wi-Fi of varying quality. In second class and first class the differences are space and quiet more than anything else. Over about 1 hour 46 minutes the extra comfort of the higher class is worth it for some travellers and not for others; we tell you the cost of both and let you choose.
- Quiet coaches and family areas on selected services - just ask when booking
- Bicycles, pushchairs and large luggage accepted within the railway's rules, which we explain
- Pets are allowed on many services with a small ticket - tell us if one is travelling
- Reserved seats with tables, power sockets and luggage racks
Children, luggage and groups on the Paris to Strasbourg train
Travelling with children on the train from Paris to Strasbourg is easy: young children are often free or heavily discounted, seats can be booked together, and there is room to move about. Let us know the ages on the form and we apply the right fares. Luggage is not weighed or charged on this route; you bring what you can lift onto the rack. For groups, we book seats in the same coach and ask about group fares, which generally make the Paris to Strasbourg train the cheapest way to move several people between the two cities.
Things to do in Strasbourg after the train
Strasbourg is the Alsatian capital on the Rhine, with the cathedral, the half-timbered Petite France and the European Parliament. Start with the Orangerie park, the Christmas market in winter and the cathedral and its astronomical clock, then the half-timbered houses of Petite France and the covered bridges. A tip from our desk: Send us your flight number and hotel address; much of the Grande Île is pedestrian or reserved for trams, so the driver may stop at the nearest permitted street.
If you want the day in Strasbourg organised - a driver, a guide, timed entry tickets - we do that too. Mention it on WhatsApp.
Best time to take the train from Paris to Strasbourg
Late spring to early autumn brings mild weather and flowering balconies; winters are cold, and the Christmas market from late November to late December draws large crowds and fills hotels. On the train, the difference between seasons shows in availability more than comfort: peak-week departures fill first, so we recommend booking early for July, August, Christmas, New Year and Easter journeys between Paris and Strasbourg.
Train, plane or bus from Paris to Strasbourg?
For most passengers the train is the best way to get from Paris to Strasbourg: about 1 hour 46 minutes centre to centre, no change, no airport time and no baggage fees. A flight only wins when the distance is very long; a bus is cheaper on some days but slower and less comfortable, and arrives at a bus station rather than the centre. Haqqi Tours arranges flights and transfers as well, so if the train is not the right answer for your dates we say so.
Return train from Strasbourg to Paris
Coming back? Say so on the form. A return train ticket from Strasbourg to Paris booked with the outbound is often cheaper than two separate bookings, and it keeps the whole trip on one WhatsApp thread with one point of contact.
How much does the train from Paris to Strasbourg cost?
The cost of the train from Paris to Strasbourg is not one number: it changes with the date, the departure time, the class and how far ahead the ticket is booked. SNCF TGV inOui and Ouigo prices the seats in tiers, so an early booking on a quiet mid-week departure and a last-minute ticket on a Friday evening can be very different fares for the same train. That is why Haqqi Tours does not print a price on this page: we verify the live fares for your exact date and send you the real cost in the WhatsApp chat, with the options side by side.
What we do include in the price we send: the ticket itself in the class you chose, the seat reservation where the operator requires one, and our service - checking the timetable, booking, sending the electronic ticket and answering questions before and during the journey. There are no hidden extras added at the end.
Cheapest train ticket from Paris to Strasbourg: how to pay less
The cheapest train ticket from Paris to Strasbourg is almost always the one booked earliest for an off-peak departure. Our staff applies the same rules on every booking:
- Choose a fixed-departure ticket if your plans are certain; flexible tickets cost more
- For families and groups, ask about group fares - four or more travellers often unlock a lower rate
- Book early - fares on this route open weeks or months ahead and the lowest tiers sell first
- Travel mid-week and mid-day - Tuesday to Thursday departures after the morning rush are normally the cheapest
- Avoid the first and last trains of the day, which carry commuters and business passengers at higher fares
- Tell us if your dates are flexible - moving by a day, or by an hour, frequently halves the fare
When you send the form, mention if you are flexible. We compare the fares across the day and send the cheapest Paris to Strasbourg train ticket first, then the alternatives.

Can I book the Paris to Strasbourg train for a group?
Certainly. Tell us how many are travelling on the form; seats are reserved together in one block and, where SNCF TGV inOui and Ouigo offers one, a group fare is requested, which often makes the train the cheapest way to move a group.
