Two question

[gracieclaire]

Hi i got two questions and only two weeks to go

First is we are staying at the kyriad for 4 nights and i know there is a shuttle bus to there but on the last night we are staying at Campanile Bussy Saint Georges hotel, and i have no idea how to get there and also does anyone know if i can leave luggage there before check in?

My other question is with meals can you book them through the hotel or onsite on the day or do i need to phone and book now?

Thanks

Can't answer the first question but you can book meals at city hall when you arrive. Lot's of people just book when they get there, I always book in advance purely becasue I book popular meals such as Inventions and Auberge so if it's something you really want I'd call, if you can be flexible with times/days then it's no so bad to book there

Do you have a car?
If you have a car, I cannot help, if you have to take public transportation to get there here is how to do:

- take the RER to Paris
- get off at the Bussy Saint Georges station (second stop)
- once you are out of the RER turnstile, exit the station from the exit on your left
- you'll be in a bus terminal, go on the other side of the square and turn left.
- once you cross a bigger road, turn right
- the Campanile is on the roundabout

10 minutes walking from the station. It's not far, but after a day in the park it's like 100 miles

For RER tickets, how many are in your group? They sell carnet with 10 tickets, they cost much less that way.

How many times would you be going back and forth from Bussy to DLP as it might be cheaper for you to leave the bags in the big lockers at the station and go and check in at the Bussy hotel when you leave the parks for the day ?

Right so you're after going from the Kyriad to the RER station at DLP then on to Bussy, leaving your bags and then heading into Paris and back to Bussy on the Friday ?

And Sat checking out of the Campanille going to the parks and getting the Eurostar home from the station at DLP ?

If so I'd suggest Mobilis cards for the adults for the Friday as you can go wherever you like on RER, Metro and Buses in zones 1-5 for a day

How old is the child as there's a Paris Visite pass that could be useful or depending on how much public transport you'd be taking in Paris a simple return ticket

On the Sat you can just buy single tickets from Bussy to DLP and then leave your bags at the station lockers if you aren't going to be going back and forth

Thank you carrie-cat, the child is 6, do you know how much those tickets are please

Thank you carrie-cat, the child is 6, do you know how much those tickets are please

A Paris Visite would be 10,25€ for the 6 year old and gives unlimited travel in the same zones 1-5 as your Mobilis

A Mobilis is 14,20€ for the adults

Single tickets from Bussy to DLP or DLP to Bussy are 2.35€ for adults and if you buy a carnet of 10 single tickets it's 18.80€. For a child it's 1.15€ the single.

Single tickets from Bussy to Paris are 5.50€ each for adults and 2.75€ for children

You could then get carnets of 10 tickets for the adults for 12.70€ and 6.35€ for children or each ticket at 1.70€ which are good in zones 1-2 (so central Paris) on the metro and buses

Really depends on how you are planning to sightsee and travel in Paris
