Getting to Besancon France from CDG airport

Hello am i able to take the TVR train directly from Charles De Gaulle airport train station to Besancon in eastern France? The sncf website appears to say i can.

Some have told me i would have to take the RER train from CDG to Gare de Lyon or to Gare d'east and THEN take the TVR? Can anyone help?

Thanks so much.

Without knowing your dates, I plugged in this journey for tomorrow. There are no direct trains from CDG. You will need to make several of connections. The SNCF app will tell you exactly where the connections are and how long you will have.

Trains to Besançon leave from Gare de Lyon.
Some trains stop at an outlying station called Besançon Franche Comté TGV: the station you probably need is the other one, called Besancon Viotte.
