Cheapest way to travel from Paris to Lille
by Alracpt
Hello/ Salut
My boyfriend and I want to go to Lille from Paris on 1st December and return to Paris the next day. We are both over 25 and under 60 and have no special redution card.
I browsed the sncf site and the cheapest return ticket for two that I found was 116 Euros.
I read something on the Lille 3000. Is it possible to get a better discount for the given days? Or is there any bus to be catch isntead of train?
Tips from sncf experts are welcome
RE: Cheapest way to travel from Paris to Lille

Well, I went out to sncf-voyages.com and looked around. Depending on the time of day that you leave and return, you can get 40 euro tickets for round trip second class each (total of 80 euro). But these tickets are limited, are non-refundable, and are only on the earliest train(s?) on Dec 1st, and the very last train on Dec 2.
The trains I found were the 6:00 a.m. train from Lille Flanders on Dec 1st, arriving in Paris Nord at 7:02 a.m. (train 7000), and the train leaving at 10:58 p.m. from Paris Nord on Dec 2nd, arriving in Lille Flanders at 14 minutes after midnight (train 7099).
There were other tickets during the day, some of them I think were only 23 euro per person each way...
Your problem is that these are TGV trains - fast and expensive. You might be able to go on slower trains more cheaply, but it will be hard on the SNCF site to research this. Actually, the German website (www.bahn.de) is better suited for studying slow trains (it gives you the option of specifying fast solutions or not), but it won't give you any pricing...

it really does depend on the time and date you plan on arriving. check for random times, and it should work out fine. also, there is a carte for persons between the age of 25 and 60 that give somewhat of a discount, about 25-40 percent. i personally wouldnt take a bus as it would probably be more expensive and def not the most direct, i feel.
are y'all coming for lille 3000? the website is http://lille3000.fr/ if youd like more info. there are a TON of activities that are FREE, so dont feel obliged to pay. also, there is a guide called "SORTIR WEEKEND" in which lists an abundance of choices. i look for bargains as im studying here, therefore always on the lookout for deals. any questions, feel free to throw them at me. im here til feb. :)
bonne chance.
Travel Tips for Lille
Gay Pride in Lille
by mickebear
Lille holds one of the biggest Gay Pride happenings in France outside of Paris. Last years the parade has attracted around 3.000 participants with some thousands more as spectators. Speciality in Lille is of course the northern French atmosphere - joyful, serious at the same time, but especially warm spirited.
2005 Gay Pride dates are not yet confirmed. Most probably in early June. Also no direct website available, but you can find some information (only in French) on the following website.
Good food & good beer
by denise16 about La Robes des Champs
We were looking for somewhere that caters for vegetarians but wasn't just crepes or pizza.
La Robes des Champs fitted the bill perfectly. A very unusual menu of potato based dishes, mainly baked potatoes, fondus and salads. House wine was over priced, but food very reasonable.
Worth walking to!
by hawkhead about Au Quai de Wault
Off the beaten tourist track, on the Quai de Wault. A small estaminet with tables outside on the quai. Very local, not a tourist in sight. Extremely friendly and helpful. A typical estaminet with lots of rustic paraphanalia and no frills. I had a "selection plate" of the local specialities - delicious and filling.
Place & Palais Rihour
by Oana_bic
This Palace bears witness to the splendours of the Burgundy period, was bought by the town from the king of Spain in 1664. The successive wars and occupations resulted in considerable damage to the building and the fire in 1916 completed its destruction. The tourist board head office is also housed in a part of the original building.
Little angels
by Helga67
There are also some houses in Lillois style on the Place du Théâtre. They have little angels next to the windows. By the angels you can see which windows belong to the same owner. Angels turning their back to the window means an other owner. Angels with their backs against each other means the same owner.
