How long is the drive from St Tropez to Aix en Provence?
Posted: Sat April 11, 2009 11:12 AM UTC

I am looking at International Schools for my grandson around the St Tropez area and cannot find any- he is 12. The only ones I can find are in Aix, and now I'm wondering how long the travel time would be each day? Is there a bus or train which would cut some travel time?
Any and all information is appreciated.
Many thanks

I would say too long a journey for a 12 year old twice a day - even assuming suitable transport , at the right time available. It is about 120km/75 miles and driving time would be at least 1 hour 30 minutes - if you don't get snarled in traffic leaving St Tropez before reaching the motorway.

you mean regular schools or language schools ?
the trip is quite far for a kid, even with public transports, mine are 15/17 and they do 40km train/bus near Paris,you are talking over 100 kms easily there.
for French language in the area, this is one of the best at Antibes
