Going to Paris from Disneyland Paris

[eileenkeeney]

Is it pretty easy to go back and forth from Disneyland Paris to Paris? We would like to sightsee a few days in Paris and I wondering if it would be better to stay in Paris instead of a Disneyland resort.

After making the choice to stay in the DL area, and travel back and forth, I recommend against it.
The RER is a long hot ride. I was told that it was not safe for me to travel alone on it too late at night (such as after dark when sunset is so late).
As a result, I did not see Paris at night.

I liked my hotel near DL, and I got a decent rate. I liked DisneyLand.
But I had no idea that I would find Paris as Spectacular as I found it, and wished I had been able to spend more time there.

I enjoyed the TGV and TER train rides. But the RER was a hot uncomfortable uninteresting ride.

So unless you plan to do more days in DL than in Paris (which I also would not recommend unless you have already been to Paris, or plan to return), I recommend against staying so far away.

It will be easy to take the RER to DisneyLand from Paris. The DisneyLand entrance is so close to the train station, that they share the same bus stops for the hotel buses.

Take the RER A train to Paris. At the Charles de Gaulle Etoile station, transfer to Metro Line 6, direction "Nation." Go five stops and exit at the Bir-Hakeim stop. The Eiffel Tower is a short walk from there.

These instructions worked, I made it there. The metro station was well labled showing exactly how to get from one line to another. . .

I'm glad it worked for you.
