Airport Toulon-Hyères

Airport Toulon-Hyères

The airport Toulon-Hyères lies 23 kilometres from Toulon city centre and you can reach it by bus, taxi and train. All services operate quite regularly, and a taxi takes about 20 minutes. However, you can also rent a car at one of the car rental services on site.

Passport / Visa

Passport / Visa

France can be visited visa-free for up to 90 days by citizens of most European countries, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Malaysia, Israel, UAE and most countries in America. If you are unsure whether or not you need to apply for a visa, we recommend contacting the embassy or consulate in your country. International (non-Schengen) travelers need a passport that is valid for at least 3 months after the end of their intended trip in order to enter the Schengen zone. Citizens of Schengen countries can travel without a passport, but must have a valid ID with them during their stay.

Best Time to Visit

Best Time to Visit

Toulon is somewhat temperate compared to other destinations, so you can come here nearly all year long. However, the best time to visit Toulon for proper sunshine-filled vacations may be the season between April and August, as both temperature and humidity are at their best. Visiting in off-season times has its benefits though, as it is less crowded and cheaper when it comes to hotel reservations and flights, and as average temperatures greatly vary, you can still enjoy outside seating and activities.

Public transport

Public transport

The bus company RMTT operates in Toulon and surroundings, and tickets can be purchased at the kiosk on place de la Liberté. RMTT tickets are also valid on the company’s four boat services in the bay, and bicycles are carried free of charge as long as there is enough space. However, a large part of the Old Town's centre is for pedestrians only.

Boat Trip

Boat Trip

A boat trip is a must when you are in Toulon, so do either take single trips with RMTT or departures with SNRTM from quai Cronstad (from April to end October) These tours take you on a guided trip around the ships of the French Navy in the bay but there are also ferries from Toulon to Corsica.

Taxi

Taxi

The service Taxi Région Toulonnaise has about 90 cars available round the clock, and they serve across the whole town. They are usually booked by telephone call but you can also halt them on the street (or at stations).
