You can travel down the Western coast to Bordeaux in two hours and a half, or to the Mediterranean coast via Avignon and from there to Spain and Barcelona.
Tours has two main stations, a central station and St Pierre Des Corps, which is just outside the center, and is the station which trains that don't terminate in Tours go through.
Tours International Airport Aéroport International Tours-Val de Loire connects the Loire Valley to London-Stansted. This link is provided by the Irish airline Ryanair. National connections to Lyon and Figari on Corsica are available, too.
Tours doesn't have a metro rail system, instead there is a very efficient bus service, the main central stop being Jean Jaures, which is next to the Hotel de Ville, and rue Nationale, the high street of Tours. A tram is planned to be built in the next few years.
