Paris underground?

[sara969]

Does anyone know what time the French underground service closes?
Or is it 24hr ?

One evening during our trip to DLP, we would like to have a couple of hours in Paris to see the Eiffle Tower all lit up.
We would like to go after park closes (which is 7pm) and after we have had our evening meal in the Disney Villiage.

How long is the Tube from DLP - Paris?
And does anyone know which stop we need to get off at to reach the Eiffle Tower?

I'm not sure what time the metro or RER closes in Paris but you can plan your journey using this journey planner. It takes approx. 40-50 minutes to get there.... The nearest RER station to the Eiffel Tower is 'Champ de Mars'.

Another thing to bear in mind is that the final lift up the Tower sets off at 11pm, the stairs close at 6ish me thinks.... Have a lovely time!

In the 2008/2009 Brit Guide to Disneyland Resort Paris, it says that the metro runs until around 1am and it says that the last RER back to Marne-la-Vallee is around midnight.
Don't know if this is accurate though.

Hi, I think they run quite late into the night, but it can take 30 - 40 mins on the RER alone. To get to the Eiffle tower you would need to catch the RER from Disney, and then make 2 changes on the metro. I would just warn you about catching the trains too late in the evening, we have stayed in Paris several times and wouldn't be overly comfortable with getting on a metro and making changes in different stations too late in the night. There is a company which run an evening bus tour into Paris - might be an easier option?

I think the best place to see the Eiffel Tower is from Trocadero. You get a great view from here and can walk down towards it if you want.

You would be able to get the RER from DLP to Charles de Gaulle Etoile and then change lines and go one stop to Trocadero. I'll check later and let you know which line to take

When we were heading back to our metro stop late at night we had to get off at an earlier metro station since ours was closed
