Means of transport Amiens

This parking is the closest to the cathedral but also to the lively district of St. Leu and the restaurants of the Bélu wharf. It is also one of the city's cheapest underground parking garages. Very accessible thanks to its wide corridors, even the descent to achieve it is done smoothly for the least reassuring drivers. You exit directly on the square of the cathedral which is very convenient for tourists who cannot walk very long.

Located in the picard countryside, this station has set up shuttle buses to connect between the railway station and Amiens in 45 minutes. TGV makes a stop to connect the big cities, as well as the new low-cost lines Ouigo towards Marseille and Rennes.

Officially named "Gare du Nord", the station is actually only a few meters from the pedestrianized city center of Amiens. The three main connections are Amiens-Paris (1h05 direct), Amiens-Lille and Amiens-Rouen which serve on their routes many small Picardy villages (Poix-de-Picardie, Albert, Corbie, Ailly-sur-Noye...) which is very convenient for all those who live in the countryside and work in Amiens. To get to the Haute-Picardie TGV station, you have to take a shuttle bus from the bus station next door.

A small station, called "bifurcation", has an SNCF ticket vending machine and a ticket office. Trains that stop there have destinations such as Lille, Rouen, Abbeville, Calais, Abancourt and Albert. There is a car park in front of the building. It is a good solution for local residents. It was put into service in 1847 and heavily bombed during the Second World War. Pierre Dufau, the chief architect of the time, rebuilt it. For a long time without commercial staff, it has had a ticket office since 2008. In June 2020, the passenger building was listed as a historical monument.

Located below the SNCF train station, the bus station is the place where many coaches leave for all France. Several local companies take turns to serve Abbeville, Beauvais, Berneuil, Crèvevoeur-le-Grand, Doullens, Mers-les-Bains, Montdidier, Péronne, Roye... Fares are rather random (traveling by bus from Amiens is not always cheaper than taking the train) and schedules are a bit restrictive, but many destinations are served. Keep an eye on it!

Ametis is to Amiens what the RATP is to Paris. Carnets can be bought directly from the sales office on Place de la Gare or from 75 shops in the city, as well as from vending machines located in the stations. In all, there are twelve bus lines, four Nemo lines (a tribute to Jules Verne of course!) and the Lianes, which runs 7 days a week through the major transport hubs, the Coeur de Ville shuttle to make your shopping trips easier, and fourteen school lines share the network. Three lines even run on Sundays. Waiting time varies between 10 and 20 minutes. Ametis therefore offers facilities for getting around the town and the surrounding area.

Located under the Halls of the Belfry, this parking lot is very convenient if you want to do your shopping at Carrefour Market or at La Halle at the Cost, where to find quality products on Amiens. Furthermore, since 2009, Les Halles du Belfry has changed its identity and has become "Les Halles" and a new internal structure allows to better move and make the centre more attractive. It is quite accessible and with 550 places, you will find a small place for you.

In the summer of June, at the end of June, in order to offer the greatest number of opportunities to discover the Picard coastline while developing tourism, the Regional Council allows the smallest to take the train at reduced prices. Whether you live in Paris or Picardy, go for a day on the beach in the Sea-les-Bains, Le, Fort-Mahon, Quend-Plage, Le Crotoy, Cayeux-sur-Mer and Saint-Valéry-sur-Somme. On Saturday, Sunday and on public holidays you benefit from preferential rates, i. e. 50% on adult tickets, a package of 5 euros for children aged 4 to 12 and free for those under the age of 4, from all the stations in Picardie and Paris North.

The taxis of this company are waiting for you in Amiens Metropole every day of the year. Packages are available for Roissy airport or the Haute-Picardie TGV station for example. The vehicles can accommodate up to eight passengers, enough to share the journey with family or friends. All this with quality services: qualified and experienced drivers, guaranteed non-smoking taxis, leather interiors, the possibility of adding a trailer to the vehicle, DVD players for long journeys. You can pay directly with your credit card in the taxi at the end of your journey.

The Indigo Amiens Hôtel De Ville parking lot is a covered parking lot located on the Place de l'Hôtel de Ville in Amiens. The parking lot has a website where you can find more information, including rates and services. The Indigo Amiens Hôtel De Ville parking lot is ideally located right in the city center, making it a convenient choice for visitors wishing to park and explore the city on foot.

SNCF is French society of railways. It is the only French railway company, but today the company has split into different branches to better meet the needs of its customers. Travellers and especially for the Amiénois, therefore have now the TER (regional express trains), managed largely by the Regional Councils, and the Intercités (formerly Coral) for journeys of medium distance, the TGV they leave from the station Haute-Picardie. One of the major assets of Amiens is probably the Parisian proximity to the train. Just over an hour to get to the capital, it's less long than some of the commuters in Ile-de-France should wait. And then the TGV line is only 40 minutes by bus to take you to Marseille, Bordeaux or even Rennes without correspondence. Perhaps one day France will see a new railway company coming into existence?

It is famous for its magnificent Gothic cathedral, one of the largest in France. Visitors can also explore the charming medieval streets of the Saint-Leu district, with its half-timbered houses and picturesque canals. Amiens is also home to several interesting museums, such as the Musée de Picardie, with its art and archaeology collections, and the Musée de l'Hôtel de Berny, which traces the city's history. To get around the city, visitors can use public transport, such as buses and streetcars.
