1 Read MoreI am on my first solo adventure abroad and am flying into Paris CDG. I have a ticket to take the TGV from CDG to Avignon. Is the TGV station actually in the airport or do I need to find a shuttle or something. I want to make sure I have enough time to clear customs and catch my train. Any advice would be appreciated.                                                                                           Thanks                                                                                                                            Tom O'

When I search online I am able to find Rail Europe, Eurail, and Euro Railways.
They all seem to offer the same kind of packages…but searching for specific trains produces different results. Also, some of them have night trains and some dont, and some require reservations and some dont. And I am not sure if a reservation needs to be booked now, before I leave for my trip…or when I get to the station and ready to go? I am so confused!
 I was wondering if anyone can explain which of these is better and how to go about bookings. I'm finding it extremely confusing! 🙁
