We will be arriving to GDC in Paris on early morning of May 14th. We will be staying at an apartment rented from vacations in paris #125 - a one bedroom on Rue St. Honore - We will be staying for 2 week.
What would be the best way for my husband and I to get to the apartment - We will both have luggage - Suggestions...

Hi den,

I think that you mean CDG (Charles de Gaulle Airport).

A: Taxi about 55E
B: Shuttle about 38E.

How much luggage? Too much to easily schlepp on and off RER and Metro trains?

If you don't have a lot of luggage and can walk about 10 minutes with it, you could take the Roissybus to Opera (rue Scribe) and walk from there. Costs about 9€ each way.

I used airport-connection.com . I had no problems with them and they offered a discount. Happy Travels!

IRA - you are right I did mean CDG. We will have 2 good size bags. I think a shuttle would be good , I have not used on in Paris before - Additionally we will be returning to the US on a fairly early flight 8:45 am so I would like to book the shuttle round-trip and get some saving there

Hi,
This is the private service that I always use. I have passed it on to others and you will find many, many have also enjoyed using it.

They will be outside security exit with your name on a sign, take yourluggage to nearby vehice and you will be off. No calls, no looking for a taxi.

It could well be cheaper than a taxi as it is a fixed price..no meter running in heavy, slow traffic.

Enjoy...

Joan
