And it is not so comfortable as travelling by train. The second choice is by plane. Travelling by plane is the fastest but also the most expensive way. It only takes one hour to get to Paris by plane. However, travelling by plane is not as interesting as going by coach or by train. Finally, you can travel by train. This is the most comfortable and the most interesting way. It is also the second most expensive and the second fastest way. I hope this helps! Have a nice trip!
