Took my French son to EuroDisney twice and he loved it - never having been to a Disney park before but a toddler will not be able to ride much of anything exciting and though there were nuances to a Euro Disney - like booze being sold everywhere so Germans will come and Italians cutting in line!

But just about the same as American Disneys IME.

Parc Asterix is a thoroughly French themer/amusement park to the north of Paris - hard to reach by public transit perhaps.

stcirq, I am not sure - but I use the same website as well - but ticket collection in Singapore - I wonder if that will make any difference. But the rates are for 2way return.

Joan, the Disney thingy is more for my husband. He is my other bigger kid in tow :-)

Stcirq I really have no idea - I am super bad with train routes. I use the same website as well.

Due to the confusing train routes, exorbitant rates, & driving is not an option, I have chickened out and booked a cheap hotel in Marne la Vallee just next to the Val D'Europe station.

Many thanks for all your kind help & assistance. I will save all these tips and advice for the next trip.

I just checked the sncf website and it cost around 300Euros for 3people & 1 toddler! That sounds quite expensive.

toddler should be free so that means about 100 euros or $140 for each adult for a return obviously full-fare ticket - one that you can change if your plane is late, etc.

But you can get discounted tickets like StCirq says at 120 euros each way and if you booked much earlier cheaper.
