How do I get CDG to town
 

We will have large suitcases . Is it best to take a cab? How much should it cost? Any pitfalls?

1. taxi - anywhere from 40-55E, plus extra per bag
2. Parishuttle - 23E for one person, 17E each for 2 persons, etc. No extra charge for bag.
Taxi - most direct / Shuttle - must pre-arrange

When taking a cab in Paris, have the address of your destimnation written down if you cannot correctly pronounce mit. Do not take a cab at the airport that doesn't have a meter.

Thanks , that advice helps a lot.

FYI, the extra charge per bag is not very much for Parisian taxis and would be included within that price range already. I've never paid more than about 45 euro total (including bags, etc) from CDG to Left Bank.
