The second way to come to Provins is by car : A4-Paris-Metz-Nancy; N4; N19.
The first point in your visit is good to be the Tourist Informations Center in the parking of Saint-Jean Gate open daily from 9-17.30. There is a nice lady who will give you a map with the points of interest and a lot of tips. Leave a Comment

However cars are admitted inside the ramparts, the Medieval town was not at all busy. There are several gates in the ramparts. The main gate is getting refurbished actually and closed for cars. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

Provins is an easy and enjoyable day trip from Paris via Gare de L'est. The journey takes about an hour and 20 minutes. In October of 2007 we paid just under E 20 each for a round trip. There are multiple train times so scheduling is easy. Just remember in Provins to check return times. You wouldn't want to miss the last train back. Or would you? Leave a Comment Theme: Train
