Traveling from Paris to Düsseldorf

What is the cheapest way to travel from Paris to Düsseldorf? I'm flying into Paris via Ryanair from Rome, but there are no Ryanair flights from Paris to Düsseldorf (or anywhere near western Germany, for that matter) and I have yet to find a good train route. I'd like to avoid flying the main airlines and I need to make this trip this upcoming Monday, 17.11.2014.

Has anyone made this trip before or have advice on getting from Paris to somewhere near western Germany?



Best Answer

As mentioned, bus is likely cheapest especially for a last minute booking, it's cheapest if you break it down into two steps (€29) instead of taking the direct bus (€45).

  • Paris to Brussels on iDBUS or Megabus (€15) you can compare on Busbud (full disclosure: I work on this project).
  • Brussels to Dusseldorf on DB IC Bus (€14)

I listed prices for online tickets, don't wait to buy from the driver, it'll cost more. These buses should all have wifi for at least part of the trip, that helps make the time pass. Be sure to leave yourself a good chunk of time in Brussels in case the first bus is delayed.

Answer 2

Another option would be car-sharing (covoiturage in French), which is very popular in France. One example platform could be blablacar. Whilst I don't know if this is a popular route, I know of people who travel only by car-sharing in France and always get where they are headed.
