Getting to Paris

Lorri_L

Hi,

I'm flying into Paris on saturday and only looked yesterday at how to get from the airport to where I'm staying. It looks really awkward! I'm staying in the 15th and flying into Charles de Gaulle.

Can anyone tell me an easy way to get to and from?

Thanks

They've a pretty good transport network.
Charles de Gaulle is a pain for everyone arriving into Paris but there's transport (train) into central Paris and presumably you'll be able to get a metro to wherever it is you're staying (not sure quite where you mean by the 15th).
Also where you're staying may have a website, and if so it may have a page with directions...

Where exactly are you staying? If you can give me that info, I can tell you exactly how to get there by public transport

you can get a train/metro straight to the station under the arc-de-triumph...

if that doesn't suit there is also a bus into the city center...

I'm staying in the 15th arrondissement, beside Vaugirard metro station!

Ah paris...

Here's a useful site : http://www.ratp.info/informer/anglais/index.php

Get the metro at the airport in the direction of Nation, alight at Pasteur and get line 12 in the direction of Mairie d'Issy to Vaugirard...

OK....

RER B line from CDG to Chatelet Les Halles

M4 (pink line) from Chatelet to Montparnasse-Bienvenue

M12 (green line) from Montparnasse-Bienvenue to Vaugirard (Adolphe Cherioux)

It should take about 1 hour in total
