Bordeaux → Brive-la-Gaillarde: Chauffeured transfer, train, car, or tour?
Short answer: Brive does indeed have a large train station, but there is no direct train between Bordeaux and Brive — the route goes through Périgueux with a connection (~2.5–3 hours), leaving you without a car for the surrounding villages; renting a car means a 2.5-hour drive, finding parking, and paying tolls; a group tour locks you into a fixed schedule. The door-to-door private chauffeur takes roughly the same time (~2 hr 30 min) door to door, with no connections and no luggage to carry, at a fixed fare from 332 €, and the driver remains available for touring Corrèze — Collonges-la-Rouge, Turenne, Aubazine, which are not served by the train. The chauffeur service price is confirmed in writing before the trip; the taxi fares listed in the table are only approximate estimates and may vary depending on the schedule and actual conditions.
