GoVolta, a Dutch budget rail operator, has announced an exciting new daily train service between Amsterdam and Paris, set to launch on December 14, 2026. Tickets for this route will start from just €19, making it a highly affordable option for travelers.

The train will depart from Amsterdam Centraal at 07:46 AM, arriving at Paris-Gare du Nord by 2:54 PM, with a total journey time of approximately seven hours. The service will make several key stops along the way, including:

Haarlem The Hague (Den Haag HS) Rotterdam Lage Zwaluwe Roosendaal Antwerp-Central Gent-Sint-Pieters Arras Longueau (near Amiens)

On the return trip, the train will leave Paris at 3:49 PM, reaching Amsterdam by 11:29 PM.

With competitive pricing, the service aims to attract budget-conscious travelers looking for an alternative to high-speed options like the Eurostar. The connection promises to bolster international rail travel in the region, especially since it marks a return of direct service between Ghent and Paris since the Thalys route was discontinued in 2015.

In addition to competitive fares, GoVolta is currently offering promotional fares that enable changes to travel dates for just €1, allowing greater flexibility for early bookers.

This initiative reflects GoVolta's ambition to strengthen cross-border rail connections and cater to a diverse range of passengers, making travel between these cities more accessible than ever.
