Montpellier airport to SupAgro 2 place Pierre VIALA

by shjap Online Now May 23, 2012 at 12:40 PM

Hi, I would like to know, what is the cheapest way (apart from taking a walk:))to get from the Montpellier airport to the 2,place Pierre Viala and then to 205 rue Croix de Las Cazes. Also, is it permitted to stay at the airport overnight, as my plane would most probably land by the midnight (though haven't booked a flight so far) and on the next day early in the morning I must come at secretary’s office at the student residence - 205 rue Croix de Las Cazes to register. I'm reluctant to pay some extra money booking a hotel to stay there just for a few night hours. On this forum I've been advised to find a taxi company, as the SupAgro is about 75km away. It can't be that far, perhaps 7,5 km were meant? Google map on Taxi-finder.com shows that the distance from the airport to 205 Rue Croix de las Cazes is aprox.12,8 km. Is that true? and are there any coaches or trams running that direction from the airport? By the way, is Les Hameaux residence and 'Cité des Elèves' situated at rue Croix de Las Cazes, a safe place to live?(I mean this urban district).

    In your situation I would contact the college for specific advice about directions to it. As it seems to receive International students for specialist courses I would be surprised if they do not provide detailed information sheets about the practicalities of getting there. If you have not already received written instructions and advice I would contact the college straight away.

    I'm sorry if I mis-informed you but you could have given these addresses before to save people googling about everywhere. The address that I gave you at Vebron at 75 kms was the first site of Sup Agro that came up. If you'd given us the address first it'd have been a lot easier.

    sleepinginairports.net/europ... this useful site - sleeping in airports - seems to indicate the airport closes at 11 pm

    From Montpellier Airport there is a bus to the city centre Place De L'Europe. This operates only until 2310hrs. You will have option but to take a taxi if you take a flight that arrives at midnight! The address of SupAgro at rue Croix de Las Cazes is only about 12km from the airport as is the Place Pierre Viala, which is nearby. The nearest tram stop to those addresses(according to the map) is at Pergola, about 1km walk. This is tram line 3, direction Juvignac. The Montpellier tram network map is at montpellier-agglo.com/tam/up... The tram network operates from 430am until about midnight except on Friday and Saturday night when trams operate until about 1.30am. Bus number 6 from the city centre passes by place Pierre Viala and goes close to the other address montpellier-agglo.com/tam/up... This bus only operates until about 2000hrs. The complete website of the Montpellier tram and bus network is http://www.montpellier-agglo.com/tam/ The map shows all the major education establishments. I hope that helps you find your solution.
