I m planning to go to France this July. Can anyone please tell me whether its possible to go to cannes from paris via train. If yes, then where to buy the tickets from and how much they can cost. At the same time, what’s the cheapest way to travel in France so that I can view the countrside and save at the same time. Thanx a lot.

Yes, there are frequent trains. The TGVs take about 5 hours and 10 minutes direct. There are trains every hour. The website for French railways is very complicated and doesn’t give results half the time. Supposedly you can buy your ticket online and pick it up at a French train station. Just buy it at the station when you get there, like a day in advance. One way 2nd class costs from $119 to $146 depending on train.http://www.raileurope.com
