Aix-en-Provence to Avignon Route Overview

This short Provence rail link is unusual because the fastest option runs between two purpose-built TGV stations outside the historic city centers: Aix-en-Provence TGV and Avignon TGV. The high-speed section crosses open countryside west of Aix and reaches the Rhone valley before Avignon, with many trains using the same corridor as Paris - Marseille services. TGV INOUI seats are reserved by default, while OUIGO also requires a booked train and TER regional services generally do not use seat reservations. Travelers staying in Aix old town or Avignon intra-muros should allow time for shuttle buses, local buses, taxis, or local rail links between the TGV stations and the city centers.

Practical Information for TGV Travelers

Luggage rules differ between TGV INOUI, OUIGO, and TER services. Check the selected train type before booking the Aix-en-Provence to Avignon route.

Luggage Allowance

On TGV INOUI, passengers may generally bring 2 large pieces of luggage with a maximum size of 130 cm each plus 1 item of hand baggage. OUIGO fares include a smaller allowance by default and may require paid options for larger bags.

Storage Facilities

TGV trainsets have overhead racks for cabin bags and luggage stacks near carriage entrances for larger cases. TER regional trains have overhead shelves and limited open floor space, so compact luggage is easier on busy Provence services.

Special Items

Folded bicycles, skis, and musical instruments are accepted when packed and kept within the train's luggage limits. Fully assembled bicycles require a reserved bike space where offered, and availability is limited on high-speed services.

Aix-en-Provence to Avignon Map

The fastest route runs northwest from Aix-en-Provence TGV on the LGV Mediterranee toward Avignon TGV, covering about 70 km without entering Marseille. The line passes through open Provence terrain and approaches the Rhone valley south of Avignon. Regional alternatives may route from Aix-en-Provence city station via Marseille Saint-Charles before heading north to Avignon Centre, adding time but placing travelers closer to city centers.

Rail vs Bus vs Plane

The direct TGV between Aix-en-Provence TGV and Avignon TGV takes about 20 minutes, although transfers to and from the two out-of-center TGV stations must be included in door-to-door planning. Buses between Aix-en-Provence and Avignon usually take around 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes depending on route and traffic. Flying is not practical for this city pair because there are no useful direct flights and airport transfers would take longer than the rail trip. Electric rail is also the lower-emission choice compared with road travel on the A7 and A8 corridors.
