 | Rennes Flights and Airline Tips | Tips 1 - 10 of 10 |  | The rennes Metro is very new (last 5 years) and is a quick and easy way to get around the city. After Lille and Toulouse, Rennes is the third French city to introduce a VAL metro system (short for Véhicule automatique léger). The first line is a north-south route through the city centre. the metro started operating regularly on 16 March 2002. As a university student is was a great way to get around town. The metro closes fairly late so you can go out till reasonably late then catch the metro home. It is not as big or confusing as in Paris and is more comfortable ,plus the infrastructure is a lot newer. Leave a Comment Theme: TrainWebsite: www.urbanrail.net/eu/ren/rennes.htm

Probabaly the best way to get to Rennes from Paris is by TGV. the trip is fast, about 3 hours and very efficient. I have done this route many times and can honestly say its the way to go. for information about reservation and prices check out the website Leave a Comment Theme: TrainWebsite: www.sncf.com

The buses are very efficent in rennes but have become much less popular since the advent of the rennes metro system. However it is necessary to take the bus to the outer regions of the cityas the metro is fairly limited in its stops. I ususally live on the outskirts of the city in a place called noyal and i am reuqired to catch the bus. One piece of advice, always travel with a ticket as the controllers love nothing more than to give you a fine. Even if your a foreigner Leave a Comment Theme: Bus
