Travel by train

Eurostar has a train leaving Waterloo at 08:39, change at Lille, arrive at Montpellier 17:05, which is probably the best option if you want to travel on the day. There are several return services available over the weekend but bear in mind you need to check where the change is. Most services involve a change in Paris but there is normally at least one which changes at Lille (easier). Check out eurostar.com
