Yes, we all need to arrange travel,
and those of us who are not self employed have travel requests to submit.

(I do not understand if the fare is round-trip or each way, it is ambiguous...)


There is also a Taxi boat, that could be interesting if we travel as a group.
-Arthur?

There are fast trains from Paris to Hyeres 4:20 travel time
(some requiring a change at Toulon, 4:56 in this case)
Can be as cheap as 45 € if we buy our tickets soon.
 7:46 Paris Gare de Lyon - 12:42 Hyeres
10:15 Paris Gare de Lyon - 14:35 Hyeres
11:46 Paris Gare de Lyon - 17:43 Hyeres
...

11km from the train station to the ferry. Is there a bus?
And from the airport?
