Heey :D

I´m searching now for hours and I´m kind of desperate: How to book the nighttrain from Hamburg to Paris??

Because when I´m on this TGV-europe page I can enter my travel date, ammount of ppl and so on, but where do I get the special offer for my IR-Ticket? (we are 4 ppl and I´d like to book this 6 bed cabins..I found something like 30€/p.P somewhere here on railcc).. And there are several options for cheaper tickets but just like Abo Fréquence, Carte de Pass Prémium and no Interrail?
Or do I have to pay the whole price, which is like 100€?

Thanks a loooot, greets

Hi petzis.
Don't use the tgv-europe site. Simply do it like explained bellow the map here:

Thanks for the quick answer!

Well.. it doesn´t work. It would just work with those 2 trains which aren´t nightlines..? the one I´d like to take says that I can only book it via travel agency :?:

You can only book the direct night train.
All other connections only at a railway station.
But I definitely recommend the direct night train! :)
Which date you want to travel?

Just as additional information...
If you want to use for example a connection like this:

Hamburg Hbf dep: 2034
Göttingen arr: 2325

Göttingen dep: 2332 - by CNL
Paris Est arr: 0924

... you have to select of course Göttingen to Paris in the booking engine. The CNL night train Göttingen-Paris is coming from Berlin and offers 2nd class seats as well for EUR 11,50 per person. But I recommend to spent more money for the 6-couchette.

So have a nice trip! :)
And if you like, take some photos of the night train and add them here on railcc. Will be helpful for other travellers. Thank you! :)
