Most of the shuttle buses (especially for inter-terminal transfer) has been replaced by the CDGVAL (a smart mini rail shuttle), free to use for everyone.

The onle remaining bus shuttle is Line 1 = circle line within Terminal 2.

Edit: There's also a smart plan of Terminal 2's TGV/RER station:

Oliver, many thanks for that update. :thumbsup2 I knew it was on the cards but had no idea when it would start.

Angela - your last post got me searching for websites that show which airlines fly from where. Thank you :goodvibes
 


If there's anyone planning to fly by plane to DLRP from the UK my best advice would definitely be to book as early as possible.

I was looking at the difference in prices with mine and my girlfriends today and it's an extra £50 more each. Great savings if you ask me!
 
HI Becky

Can you please tell me what the difference is between the TGV and the CDG trains? I am a bit confused and wondering which one is better to get to DLP?

Thanks

Kelly
 
This thread here and also here should help you. :)

If you're travelling quite light ie. not too much luggage, toddlers, buggies etc then the TGV train will probably be ideal for you as it's direct and very quick.

The RER train is the slower one and you will have to change. If the TGV is not for you, then it would be better to catch the VEA bus which is also direct and will drop you directly at your hotel.

Hope this helps, if you need to know anymore please ask away. :)
 


Just noticed that the RSTransport link takes you to BSTransport site :confused:
This is the website link I used http://www.rstransports.com/
and so far they're been a pleasure to deal with, prompt reply to email on a Sunday evening and confirmation of my reservation today within 10 minutes.:thumbsup2
Added to which they've quoted me cheaper than the VEA shuttle. :)

We used Tio Shuttles for our return transfer from CDG to Hotel New York (4-8th May 2009).

The return price for 5 passengers and luggage (which they do not charge for and a child booster seat which is free of charge) was Euro 140 which was E22 cheaper than the VEA bus system.

We were met by a suited young man holding a card with my father's name at CDG and he promptly took the trolley of luggage of my husband and told us to follow him to a very clean 7 seater mini-bus silver and opened all the doors for us and loaded the luggage himself into the large boot.

There was already a booster seat in the back for my little girl and off we went on our very quick 25 minute drive to the Hotel New York. The mini-bus was immaculate inside and we arrived very swiftly to the Hotel. He opend the doors for us and then unloaded our luggage outside the hotel and then confirmed our return journey details with my father who paid in cash for the first leg of our journey - 70Euros.

We were picked up at 6.30pm onthe day of our return by another driver in an equally immaculate mini-bus and the journey took approx 30 minutes back to CDG and we paid another 70Euros in cash to the driver.

It was an excellent service and much quicker than the VEA for us as this was not a shared transfer. Highly recommend them to other travellers.
 
We used the TGV from CDG to DLRP for the first time this week (we have used it on the return journey before, which I've always found easy and very convenient).

The outward journey was fine too I found. We landed on time at Terminal 1 at 6.30pm, walked straight through passport control with no delays, and had hand luggage only. We made it to the TGV station at Terminal 2, having used the CDGval between terminals, at 7.05pm, and we caught the 7.11pm train to Marne la Vallee. 10 minutes later we were at the main park gates :goodvibes.
 
Thanks BEXX,,

We used ezyshuttle.com from your list of transfer companies. They were great, and got our holiday off to a great start. I'll be using them again.

Thanks again.
 
flew to Disney for the first time. Easyjet Bristol - CDG awesome,so easy and quick! with just handluggage

booked RS transports for the transfer. we didnt share on the way out and shared with 2 other people on the way back

would definitely book with them aagain as it was so easy and stressfree with no hassle :)

they were polite and punctual,and a nice vehicle too :thumbsup2
 
Is there a price difference if you book ahead or if you pay at the station for the TGV? Our flight lands at 4:20pm but don't want to risk any delays on getting the 5ish train. Thanks.
 
I booked RS transports for our trip last week and was quite disappointed with the service.
Although i booked with rs transports and confirmed arrangements with them, on the morning of departure i had an email from paris blue shuttle with incorrect collection point for departure day, it was only luck that i checked my email, so i quickly sent off an email to amend the details. At the airport with free wifi i checked my emails and i'd had a reply, this time the arrival hotel was incorrect, but decided i'd sort it with the driver.

At cdg although we landed early we kept waiting ages before disembarking the plane, so ended up 10 mins later than the taxi collection time when i switched my phone on i had 3 missed calls from paris blue shuttle, i rang back and said i was at gate 10 as arranged, they said they'd send the driver back, he did arrive and journey was uneventful although driving was erratic.

The journey on departure day was something else, I had a phonecall an hour before we were due to be collected to say driver would be 15 mins late, when he arrived we went the scenic route, i've been that way before with ezyshuttle and john explained it was quicker at rushhour times, which is fair enough, but on this occasion the road was closed, first we ended up at a dead end, then he stopped to ask a young girl the way, we ended up on a dirt track for a few miles. I'm not sure if the driver was rushing then, but his driving was appalling, i felt sick and liam who doesnt travel very well was positively green. We were constantly accelerating and braking and he was on his phone 90% of the time, my husband said he'd rather walk than risk going in a car with them again !

I must stress this was Paris Blue Shuttle but i cant recommend RS transports if they're going to pass bookings over. Next time i'll pay the extra and book Ezyshuttle :(
 
For those who have used VEA, is the first hotel they deliver to NPB as it looks like this on their route map????? And what is the service like? Thank you K
 
Travel Options from Paris Gare Du Nord if arriving on the Eurostar would be good :-)
