Bayeux to CDG Airport

Posted by ellenb18 on 12/22/24 10:28 PM

I'm visiting Bayeux and doing an all day tour - presumably will end around 6 pm. Then I need to make my way back to CDG airport for a flight the next afternoon. My understanding is the train from Bayeux is nearly 4 hours with two changes -- I'll be solo and I', thinking k it might be a good idea to break up the trip.

What's a good mid point between Bayeux and the airport to get to that evening or should I just go all the way to the airport and stay at a local hotel even if I would arrive quite late. I'll be travelling solo if that matters.

Thank you!

There look to be a couple of direct trains departing after 1800h to Paris, taking about 2hr 15 min. Stay in Paris that night, then taxi to the airport the next day.

Yes Above is correct. No change. Have tour drop you off at train station if possible. And you get to Paris you can taxi to airport. Be sure to use official taxi. We did this last.September. We used taxi to our hotel in Paris as we were staying a few days there before flight home. This is a very easy trip for you.

Is there a way to rearrange your trip plan so that you are not in Bayeux, hoping to finish a tour and get dropped off on time to catch one of the last trains the evening before your flight ? And then hoping there are no train problems that impact your getting to Paris in a timely fashion? I would be a nervous Nelly the whole time wondering about whether it was going to work out.

(If you find yourself with train problems that evening, it will be too late to rent a car as a plan B.)

The fact that your flight is afternoon is the only reason I would have even a little hope, but if you literally mean 12:30 for a transatlantic flight, I would still be very anxious. Different if it's a 5 pm flight to Rome (or somewhere else in Europe).
