CDG to Disneyland Paris: Your Complete Guide

Before exploring the ways to reach Disneyland from the Airport, let’s talk a bit about the airport and its location. Understanding where you are and pinpointing your destinations can make it simpler to decide on the best travel option.

About the Charles de Gaulle Airport and Disneyland Paris

Sitting 35 km outside of Paris, the Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) is a transportation hub larger than life. This massive airport may seem daunting with its maze-like structure, but fear not. Everything is indicated, and you shouldn’t struggle too much to find the train station, taxi stand, or bus stop.

Disneyland Paris lies 40 km outside of Paris, in the east. It’s located in Marne-la-Vallée, which is very well-connected to Paris by public transportation. But not only to Paris but to Disneyland as well. Because there is even a Highspeed train that brings you to Mickey & Co. in no time.

What’s the distance from CDG Airport to Disneyland Paris?

The distance from Charles de Gaulle to Disneyland Paris is approximately 40 km (25 mi) if you take a taxi, bus, or a private transfer. You don’t need to enter Paris but take the A104 and A4 Highway. By bypassing Paris, you’ll evade the heaviest traffic, but truth be told, it will still be busy during rush hours.

How to get from Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport to Disneyland

If you want to begin your magical Disney adventure right at the airport, book yourself a seat on the Magical Shuttle. The shuttle bus circulates hourly from 9h to 19:45h between CDG Airport and Disneyland Hotels and provides you with a reliable transfer.

It is a comfortable, affordable, and hassle-free option if you are traveling alone to Paris or in a group of 2 or 3.

Grouping up? If you have 4 travelers over 11, it’ll cost less to book a private transfer. Not only will everyone enjoy the peace of mind that comes with increased service and comfort, but your wallet won’t hate you either!

When deciding on the best transfer from CDG to Disneyland Paris, consider that taking a Magical Shuttle might not be the quickest. With people getting off at their hotels and unloading luggage while they go, these shuttles aren’t exactly speedy.

The Disneyland Paris Airport Shuttle Bus Stops

• Terminal 1: Exit Gate 32, Arrivals Level (Service stops at 18:20, use stop at Terminal 2E/2F then)
• Terminal 2: Bus Stop at Terminal 2E/2F, Door 8 Arrivals Levels
• Terminal 3: Take the CDGVAL airport train to Terminal 2F, then Door 8

#3 Take the TGV Train from Paris Airport to Disneyland (in 10min)

Transfer from Charles de Gaulle to Disneyland Paris in warp speed: Book your tickets

Taking the high-speed train TGV as means of transportation from Paris to Disneyland is a fantastic option if you are very short on time. That’s because the trip takes only an incredible 10 minutes. It’s hard to believe, isn’t it?

Even after more than 16 years in France, I can’t wrap my head around how super-efficient train travel can be.

Truth be told, the TGV train ride isn’t on the cheapest side. It’s €37 per passenger, but the time that you are saving? Priceless. It is by far the absolute quickest way from Paris airport to Disneyland Paris. Just hop on the train and a wink later you’re there.

How to get to the TGV train station at Charles de Gaulle Airport?

The first thing you need to know about transferring from Charles de Gaulle airport to Disneyland Paris by train is where to catch the train. Lucky you, the CDG Airport has only one train station.

The train station serves both, high-speed train lines and suburb trains and lies more or less in the center of the airport CDG. You find the station at Terminal 2.

No matter where at the Charles de Gaulle Airport you arrive, it’s easy-peasy to get to the train station. Already because there are signs everywhere. However, here’s a bit more detail about it:

If you arrive at Terminal 1:

Terminal 1 is connected by the CDGVAL train to the TGV train station. It’s an automated train that is free of charge. Just jump on and get out at the TGV station.

If you arrive at Terminal 2:

From Terminal 2A/2B, hop on the free N1 shuttle bus to get to the TGV train station.

If you are arriving at Terminal 2C/2D/2E/2F, you simply can follow the signs pointing you in the right direction: “Gare SNCF Aéroport Charles de Gaulle 2“.

From Terminal 2F, take the free N2 shuttle bus to the train station.

Where to buy a ticket for the TGV at CDG?

If you want to transfer from Charles de Gaulle airport to Disneyland Paris by train, you can buy the tickets right at the station or comfortably from home before your arrival.

I always recommend organizing as much of your trip beforehand to make your trip easier and less stressful.

By the time you arrive at the station, you’re probably already worn out. A long journey lies behind you, you navigated the airport and found the train station. It’s enough for one day. No need to figure out ticket machines and wait in lines.

Book your train ticket for your Charles de Gaulle airport to Disneyland Paris train easily here. They offer the same rates as the machines, so you only can win really.

If you rather book it on the spot, just find one of the ticket machines at the station. You can’t miss them: they are everywhere, often yellow, and are people lining up in front.

#4 Taking Public Transportation from CDG to Disney

If you are traveling alone and on a really tight shoestring budget to Paris, you also can take public transportation to transfer from Paris Airport to Disneyland. However, it is the least favorable option and only a few Euros cheaper than taking the Magical Shuttle.

But if this is not putting you off, then read on and know how to take the suburb train from Charles de Gaulle to Disneyland Paris. To sum it up, you will first take the RER B train from CDG to Paris and then the RER A train out to Disneyland Paris. But let’s start at the beginning:

Step 1: Walk or take the CDGVAL train to the train station in Terminal 2

As you will go to Paris first, you can just follow the big blue signs saying “Paris par Train” or simply “train”.

Step 2: Buy your train ticket at the train station at the Airport

Before boarding the train at CDG Airport, you can purchase a train ticket to Disneyland at one of the vending machines. It’s 19€ per Passenger over 11. Kids pay less and children under 4 ride free.

The language at the vending machines can be changed, and you shouldn’t run into issues finding the right option to buy a ticket for a train to Disney.

If Disneyland is not preselected, pick “Destination” and type in “Marne la Vallée Chessy”. You’ll get a ticket that will be valid for your entire journey. However, you can make the transfers from one train to another, but you can’t leave the station.

Step 3: The RER B from CDG to Paris

Now, to take the Paris suburb train, called RER. The RER connects cities within the greater Paris area with Paris, and is also connected to the inner Parisian Metro lines.

There is only one line servicing the CDG Airport, the RER B. Good for you: from the airport, all trains going to Paris. You can’t go wrong.

You need to take RER B from the CDG Airport to Châtelet-Les Halles.

Step 4: The RER A from Châtelet-Les-Halles to Disneyland Paris

In Châtelet-Les Halles, you need to transfer from RER B to RER A. Make sure you are catching a train to Marne la ValléChessy. That’s Disneyland, you can’t miss it.

#5 Take an Uber/Taxi from CDG to Disneyland Paris

If you’re not one for planning ahead and want to get your Paris vacation started right away, a taxi at the airport is an easy option. Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport has well-indicated taxi stands, and on average, you’ll pay around 76€ during the day and 90€ at night for a ride from the airport to Disneyland.

You can pay in cash or on a credit card depending on your preference, so you don’t have to worry about having enough money on you when you arrive.

But be careful: ONLY take a taxi from the official taxi stands. NEVER accept a ride from a driver that are approaching you upon arrival. Those are not legit.

The Uber app is working well in Paris. Alternatively, you also can try BOLT. A similar system but often with better prices.

Transfer	Travel Time	Price	Reserve
Private Transfer	40 – 90 min	82€ (4 Pax)	Get quote here
Magic Shuttle	60 min	70€ – 96€ (4 Pax)	book here
TGV Highspeed Train	10 min	111€ – 148€ (4 Pax)	book here

Voilà, I hope I could clear the Airport Transfer situation up for you. The most convenient ways are the private transfer and the TGV high-speed train.

The Magical Shuttle can be a nice option if you are traveling alone. However, the suburban train is not worth it, as it takes ages and is not even cheap.

If your group consists of 4 passengers over 11 years, the cheapest and most convenient option is the private transfer. It also comes with added services like gate pick-up and child seats.
