Where to book

Ticket Provider	Approximate Cost
Oui.SNCF	*
Oui.SNCF Guide SNCF is the national rail operator in France and not so long ago it recently simplified both the range of tickets and the term and conditions of using them. Therefore the cheapest tickets also become more flexible too. Other improvements included a simple integration of travelling with bicycles and rail pass users being able to book reservations for national journeys, without paying booking fees. Though a legacy of when SNCF sold international tickets under the Rail Europe branding is that OuiSNCF is available in multiple translations with the offerings on the site then tailored to international visitors to France. However, some of the site's features, including the integration of mobility assistance into the booking path, are only available on the French language version. Something else to look out for is that simplest way of travelling with tickets is to use the SNCF 'My Travel' phone app, so it's therefore often a good idea to book on the OuiSNCF mobile service.

Good to Know

Note that these trains depart from the Gare Du Nord.

Until recently there used to be two different types of train service on the Paris to Amiens route, the slower trains were the TER trains and the faster trains were Intercités services.
But now these faster trains are also TER services too.

So take care when looking up these services online and when boarding at the Gare Du Nord; because it's worth targeting those faster trains.
Other TER services can be more than 25 mins slower, but they won't be any cheaper.
