I am on the site now trying to book. I think I saw on rail europe a direct train that went from paris to venice S. Lucia. It looks like anything on the tgv site is going to stop in milan, does that sound right? Also is there a way to end the trip at venice s. lucia instead of mestre?

thanks!

Artesia 00221 departs Paris at 20:33, stops in Milan and Venezia Mestre, and ends at Venezia Santa Lucia. It does appear on the tgv-europe site.

The night train from Paris will stop in Milan and then finish at Santa Lucia. You will be right by the Canal and can get the vaporetto you need for your hotel; crowded but easy. Your hotel should give you a map and/or directions, including the vaporetto #.

I used the TGV site last week to book 1-way Paris/Avignon and was thrilled to get 1st class tickets for 55E each---cheapest tickets for the time & day we needed to travel. Thanks to the info on the Helpline, I used Australia as my home country and was able to print out my tickets.
