Train arrivalNight train and Intercites specialist. Drop-off at 85 Quai d'Austerlitz, 13th arr.
Gare d'Austerlitz, in the 13th arrondissement facing the Seine and the Jardin des Plantes, has stayed quieter than its grand neighbours with 21 million annual passengers. It retains a strategic role: it's the Paris terminus of the last Intercites night trains (Paris-Briancon, Paris-Latour-de-Carol-Toulouse), revived since 2017. It also serves Orleans, Limoges, Tours and the Centre-Val de Loire region.
Ongoing renovation (until 2027) improves facilities but occasionally limits hall access. Our taxi service positions directly at Quai d'Austerlitz, with coordination if you have a night train (Intercites de Nuit), which needs special handling (arrival 20 min before, cabin-sized luggage recommended).

The main taxi rank is directly at 85 Quai d'Austerlitz, in front of the central hall. A secondary, more discreet zone is on rue Buffon (west), faster in case of queues. Proximity to the Jardin des Plantes and Seine creates tourist traffic on sunny days, but taxi demand stays lower than at Lyon or Montparnasse. Without booking, expect 5-12 minutes' wait.
The official taxi meeting point is located directly in front of the main hall. Follow the « taxi exit » signs from the platforms.
