Aix from Saint-Charles: when the train is not enough

The regional train links Marseille to Aix-centre station in about forty minutes, but the line often suffers delays and engineering works, and with luggage the walk from Aix station to the old town is not easy. A private driver drops you at your hotel or as close as possible to the pedestrian area.

The driver follows the A7 and A51 to Aix, tolls included. At rush hour, leaving Marseille on the A7 is the slowest part.

Do you serve the university campuses in Aix?

Yes: the Schuman site, the Facultés district and the Gazelles campus, at the same per-kilometre rate.

Aix also has a coach station and a central TER station: for a coach departure to the Alpine resorts or a meeting near the Cours Mirabeau, give the address and you will be dropped as close as possible.

Students arriving for the start of term at the university or Sciences Po often travel with heavy luggage: the driver takes them straight to their residence, whether in the centre, Jas-de-Bouffan or near the Gaston-Berger campus.
