Travel from Cinque Terra to Pezenaz, France
We are a group of 8 that will be staying in Monterossa then need to head to Pezenaz, France for 10 days. We were hoping for a close by flight, maybe Pisa to Beziers however could not find or they were an unreasonable price.
Should we take train and if so, how many times will we need to change trains? And how long will this take then?
Additionally we wanted to rent cars for Pezenaz. Where is best to pick those up?
We are travelling in September/October.
It is getting very complicated
. Please help!
Thank you

How about flying to Barcelona from either Pisa or Genova, taking a train into France that gets you close to Pezenaz + has car rental offices? (Sorry can't help you as to where in France would be the best train stop)

It's a long slog by train -CT to Perpignan - may be the closest rail station with car rentals- 13-14 hours with about six changes of train! How about taking train to say Marseilles and pick up car and drive along coast? Anyway for train info check www.seat61.com; www.budgeteuropetravel.com and www.ricksteves.com.

Thanks Pvoyageuse - Beziers is just about 30 minutes before Perpignan - my point was only to be that Pezenas is a long long slog from CT by train - fly for sure -Montpellier or Beziers closest airports I guess.

"Beziers is just about 30 minutes before Perpignan"
Over an hour.
"- fly for sure -Montpellier or Beziers closest airports I guess."
There are no suitable flights either to Montpellier or to Beziers.

Barcelona may be a real good suggestion for flying -there are also day-long and night-long ferries between I think Livorno, Italy and Barcelona if one don't want to fly.
Lyon Satolas Airport would not be too bad I suppose.

It's a 700 kms (450 miles) journey from one small provincial town to another one. It cannot be done in a fast way.
It's aboout 12 hrs y train and more or less the same (door to door) by plane (via Paris, MXP - MRS or MXP - TLS)
