Disadvantages
IconMinor delay
IconHigh prices in the bistro
I travelled from Paris to Cologne by train and was largely satisfied. The train was slightly delayed by just under 10 minutes, but I didn't find this too bad. On the plus side, both the carriages and the toilets were very clean. The landscapes along the route were beautiful and well maintained. I particularly liked the coffee in the bistro, although it was a bit expensive.

My journey from Paris to Cannes was quite pleasant as the train was very comfortable. The seats were cosy and the climate was balanced. Unfortunately, the bistro was closed that day, so I didn't get any coffee. Overall, it was still a good travelling experience as the train was not delayed.
