A station that is hard to reach by car
Gare du Nord serves Eurostar to London, Brussels and Amsterdam, TGVs to Lille and northern France, RER lines B and D and many suburban lines. All this traffic converges on a few streets of the 10th arrondissement, where traffic is heavy at all hours.
A driver who knows the area avoids circling the station and drops you on the right side. You save the minutes that matter, especially before a Eurostar whose boarding closes before departure.
