Amsterdam to Marseille by train

There are no direct trains from Amsterdam to Marseille so when looking up the journey what may not be obvious is that the simplest routing is to make the connection between trains at Midi/Zuid station in Bruxelles.
On arrival at that station, you'll usually need to descend into the international departures area and pass through security to board the TGV train to Marseille.

The more frequent and usually cheaper option is to travel via Paris, but this involves having to make a transfer across the city centre from the Gare Du Nord to the Gare De Lyon.

Connect in Marseille for Toulon, Cannes, Antibes and Nice
