ルルド：1日来る-高速列車でパリからプライベート日帰り旅行

Communication through Viator app was clear. We were picked up and returned to our hotel in a timely manner (traffic dependent). Despite the minimal English of both our drivers, they were extremely lovely. Our local tour guide Nat(h)alie met us at Lourdes airport. She was super sweet and very knowledgeable!! There is quite a bit of walking involved so if travelling during the heat please make sure to keep hydrated and bring a hat. There was plenty of time (flexibility) to appreciate the Grotto, Basilica, have lunch, and even have some ice cream or fit in a tiny bit of souvenir shopping towards the end. There is also adequate time to take photos if you are efficient. People were able to attend the Rosary if they wanted to. Everyone was able to purchase and take home little bottles (total of 1L) of Holy water as well. Overall, it was a very reflective and blessed experience. Would highly recommend. :)

Our day trip from Paris to Lourdes was seamless and a pleasure. We were a family of 5 ranging in age from 60 to 71. Our trip had to be moved from Friday to Saturday due to track repairs, but we were able to accommodate. We were booked on a flight for Saturday morning and then took the train back to Paris. We were picked up at our hotel right on time and brought to Orly airport where our guide accompanied us up to security and told us of our gate number. It was very stress free. When we landed in Tarbes around 945am, we walked out of airport and our guide Natalie was waiting for us. She spent the next 8 hours with us. We had a comprehensive tour including the village of Lourdes, Bernadette’s homes, the museum, the magnificent grotto and beautiful churches. We had time to recite the English rosary at the grotto which was wonderful. Natalie brought to a nice restaurant where our family had a delightful lunch. And the day was made even more special as it was military weekend at Lourdes so there were military personnel from all over the globe paying homage to our Lady that weekend including the Swiss Guard! Natalie was extremely informative and flexible accommodating all our wishes. She brought us to the train station precisely on time and accompanied us to the train platform and ensured we boarded the train cabin. She went above and beyond. We arrived about five hours later in the Paris train station. Our driver sent me his coordinates of his vehicle shortly before we arrived. The Paris train station is very big and a bit disorienting if you are not familiar with it. I suggest you use his coordinates in google maps to orient yourself in the station and to find where the driver is parked. We found him within ten minutes and he dropped us off in front of our hotel. A once in a life time opportunity and we are so happy we visited Lourdes. I would recommend to anyone.

I travelled by plane to Lourdes. Dont forget your passports and boarding passes are provided when picked up. I was very pleases wirh the wxperience overall. My guide was very knowledgeable about the history and vey friendly. All pick up were on time. Guide is very accomodating to your needs and schedule. I will definitely do it again. Oh btw, dress comfortably and if you want to bathe in the waters you need to be in line at least an hour beforw they open as they stop promptly at closing time. Very rewarding experience.

We had a wonderful time in Lourdes. Geovana was absolutely professional and very like family to us. She showed, and explained more than I thought was possible in a one day pilgrimage. Thank you very much for a memorable experience.

Our train travel from Paris to Lourdes tickets were upgraded to first class which we loved. The driver that picked us up in the morning to take us to the station was excellent. He kindly purchased our morning coffees and lead us to the platform were we needed to be for the train ride and waited to ensure that we boarded correctly. He was then waiting for us when we arrived late in the evening, almost midnight, to take us back to our accomodation. We had a private tour with a very friendly, accomodating and knowledgable guide, Giovana. She was a great patient guide. It was a very costly day and adventure but well worth it. All up, we had an excellent time!

This was an excellent experience. Natalie was an amazing guide! There was a last minute change from rail to plane, but it gave us more time at the site. Not needing to worry about any leg of the trip (transportation arranged) was great. It is a bit pricey for a day excursion, but it was worth it in our opinion.

This was a bucket list day trip for the family while in Paris, France. The tour handled all the logistics including changing to a plane flight instead of train based on availability which was nice not having to worry about hotel to airport and back transfers and tickets. Our all day private guide Natalie was wonderful at taking us to all the activities we should do while at Lourdes. Even though a rainy day she ensured we got stories and family pictures at all the places. We even got mass, rosary, and confession in while seeing all the main sights. Natalie also took care of recommending the proper sizes of grotto water bottles that we could max take on the plane so we could bring home much of the Blessed water to family and friends. If you only have a day to see Lourdes, this is your best option if you’ve never been there, the travel and be guided through the experience makes it much less complicated.

The employees hold your hand from start to finish. Even alone on the train, you’ll feel your day is going to be a great adventure. The train leaves Paris and only goes one extras stop. So, even if you are too relaxed to hear the Lourdes directions, don’t worry when you get back., your guide is waiting on the platform. The guide is very knowledgeable about Lourdes and the quaint surrounding town. There is a for purchase snack bar in the train!!!

My husband and I had a great experience for this activity. We were picked up and dropped off at our hotel and the train ride was long but doable for a day trip. Once in Lourdes George picked us up and brought us to the site where we met Kathy who was an amazing tour guide for the day. She was very knowledgeable and she helped us plan our activities for the day to get in a much as we could in the amount of time we had. I will definitely recommend this experience to family and friends as it was well worth the money spent.

The trip was well organized from the pickup at the hotel to the pickup at the train station. Train tickets were arranged beforehand. Nathalie, our guide, is the best. She showed us all the important sites including the birthplace of St. Bernadette
