Train Schedule to Aix

[llarsen]

Hi, We will be cruising the Med for the first time next week!

We will be in Marceille Thursday from 8:00am-6pm and plan to take the train (or bus) to Aix for the day.

 

I was just looking at the train schedule and am confused. I'm looking at Rail Europe, and when I put in departure Marseille to Aix it came up with this:

Departure: Marseille St Char 09:38

Arrival: Aix En Prov TGV 09:49

Duration: 0h 11minutes

 

I thought it took like 45 minutes? Am I doing something wrong or on the wrong site?

 

Thanks!

The time on the TGV is correct. Under 15 minutes. I am looking at a schedule I picked up last month in Nice. It is for that route in reverse. For example, leaves Aix at 9:34 and arrives in Marseille at 9:50, or leaves at 11:31 and arrives at 11:46. There is a "slower" TGV that leaves at 13:31 and arrives at 13:51. So don't get too comfortable on your seats . . .
