Passport information :
France requires your passport to be valid for at least 3 months after your departure date—but many airlines prefer 6 months just to be safe.
Travel tips :
Biarritz is charmingly compact—both the airport and train station are just 10 minutes from the city center. Book early: June is a popular time, and trains and flights fill up fast. Once you arrive, you’ll easily be able to secure a taxi to take you to your hotel.
Getting to France :
For guests coming from outside of France, we recommend flying into Paris then taking a connecting flight or train to Biarritz. Paris has two main airports, Charles de Gaulle (CDG) and Orly (ORY).
Flight from Paris to Biarritz :
-
Flight time: About 1 hour 25 minutes
-
Flights depart from both Charles de Gaulle (CDG) and Orly (ORY)
-
If you're arriving internationally, you'll likely land at CDG—just make sure your connecting flight is from the same airport (or leave time to transfer).
-
Allow at least 2 hours between flights to comfortably get through customs. If timing is tight or you’re delayed, explain to one of the many officers at customs —they’re usually helpful about rushing connections.
Train from Paris to Biarritz :
This is a great option if you want to spend a few days exploring Paris first!
​
-
Trains to Biarritz leave from Gare Montparnasse in Paris
-
Travel time: Around 4 hours, depending on the route
-
Many options are direct, though some stop in Bordeaux for a quick, easy transfer—check your ticket
-
Tickets are available on SNCF Connect and typically go on sale 3–6 months ahead of departure
Car Rental in Biarritz :
Planning to explore beyond Biarritz? The Basque countryside is stunning and well worth the drive. Rental cars are available at both the Biarritz airport and train station, and driving in the region is fairly easy.
​
*That said, no car is needed in the city* Biarritz is very walkable, with everything just a short stroll or quick taxi ride away. We’ll also be providing transportation to and from the wedding reception.
