visit paris from disney

[caretaker.thms]

i am going to visit paris on our next trip to disney.

would it be best to park free at val de europe or pay to park at disney and catch the train from there?
i got expensive alloys on my car and dont want them nicked!!!

how much is the fare from disney?
is it straight forward getting a ticket now?(last time i tried from bussey saint george, nobody spoke english and didnt know what tickets or what train to get on!!!)

how far out in Paris is the station from the Eiffel tower and other landmarks as i have a 7 year old who moans if he has to walk more than a couple of miles,, thou i try to tell him he walks at least 6 miles around Disney!!!

thanks all

Sorry I missed this yesterday

Ive only ever got the train from Disney so Im not sure about how safe the parking is at Val d'Europe- I would go for the disney option.

The trains from there all go to Paris so you cant get on the wrong one.

It costs 13Euros for a mobilis ticket (this will give you return journey to and from paris and unlimited use of the metro whilst there)

It stops at several station in central paris but i think the best one to get off at for Eiffel Tower is Charles de Gaulle Etoile. Change here onto metro line 6 to Trocadero. Get off here and you can walk and see the ET from what I think is the best place. You can then walk down towards it if you want.

I was hoping someone would have replied as we intend to do it one day this week in our trip! I'm sure we'll muddle through somehow

We also like using the batobus to get round Paris - its like a boat bus with several stops where you can get off and explore.
You can get on this at Eiffel Tower and then sail down the river to Notre Dame or the Louvre

It is very easy and pleasant to walk from along the river from Notre dame to the Louvre or from the Louvre to Place de la Concorde then up the Champs Elysee back to the same station

Its a long walk up the Champs Elysee but it can be interesting - lots of shops to look at on route and you can bribe the children with a look in the disney shop on route or McDonalds at the top (handy for a toilet stop before you get the train back to disney)
