Thank you so much . Am still nervous but will follow all your references . Just having to face a different routine at old age though I don’t so “old”Hi @Aishlyn
From Lyon airport you catch the 'tram' (more like a metro) to Lyon Part Dieu station, which is in the centre of Lyon. https://www.lyonaeroports.com/en/access-transports/tram From Lyon Part-Dieu you can take a train to Le Puy-en-Velay.
The train from Lyon to Le Puy will either be a direct one or will have a transfer at St-Étienne Châteaucreux. The journey times seem to be fairly similar whether direct or with a change - around 2 hours 20 mins. I'm going next month and due to timings, I'm staying a night in Lyon and getting the train to Le Puy the next day. You can see the train times from Lyon Part-Dieu to Le Puy on https://www.rome2rio.com as @camino07 has suggested, or at a site such as https://www.trainline.eu/
You can buy your tickets for both parts of the transfer in advance:
https://www.rhonexpress.fr/en for the tram to/from the airport
https://www.trainline.eu for Lyon to Le Puy-en-Velay
Edited to add: If you have further questions, you will possibly get a better response if you post them in the Le Puy section
Good luck!
