Transfer from CDG to Paris
 
Does anyone have a recommendation of a car and driver to meet me at arrivals at CDG to get to my hotel. I have done it many times before by myself, but now I’m old and need help. Thanks for any suggestions.

I'd just use a taxi myself.

We used Grey Shuttle last April. Communication was great and Michele was an excellent driver. We texted him when we landed. He waited for us to get our checked bags and met us as we exited into the arrivals hall. His Mercedes van was immaculate and he dropped us at the front door of our apartment.

Grey top thank you for the suggestion. Janis J, as I wrote I’ve done this before. In the past I have used a taxi as you do. However I am now old ( I will be 86 when I travel and solo) so I need more help. I appreciate all suggestions for my situation.

Greytop recommends Grey Shuttle. Am I the only person who finds this suspicious? What did Grey Shuttle charge? A maximum 55 euros, I hope, which is the maximum taxi fare.

Kerouac, I caught that too. I thought of hitting the triangle, but in this case it's not quite as obvious as most advertising on this board. In other words, there's too much of a grey area.

After a bit of snooping I no longer see a grey area and I think greytop is legit. So I would give greytop the green light.

Uh -- why do you think there is an issue?? Greytop has been a member twenty years . . . as long as both of you :)

Greytop joined in 2003. See profile.

rmfish, we used Victor’s Cabs from CDG; reliable and professional. We have also been happy taking a taxi from the stand; brief wait and a more reasonable rate.

Right, after looking at the profile, it all seems black and white to me now. ;)
