The journey by public transport between CDG Airport and Disneyland® Paris is made in two stages:
- RER B from Charles de Gaulle Airport to Châtelet-Les Halles
- Change at Châtelet-Les Halles for RER A towards Marne-la-Vallée – Chessy
The Paris Region <> Airports Ticket allows you to travel to or from CDG Airport via RER B, on the metro, train and RER network in zones 1 to 5. It can therefore be used to reach Marne-la-Vallée – Chessy with an RER connection. For the exact fares, timetables and conditions on the day of your journey, it is recommended to check the official websites.
Key figures
-
- Total journey time: approximately 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes, including the connection
- Connection: 1 change at Châtelet-Les Halles
- Arrival: Marne-la-Vallée – Chessy station, close to the Disney Parks
What you need to know before choosing the RER
This option may suit solo travellers, couples or small groups travelling light and comfortable using public transport.
However, this journey requires a connection at Châtelet-Les Halles, a large underground station that is often very busy. With several suitcases, a pushchair, tired children or after a long flight, the route can be less comfortable than a direct option.
You should also take into account your arrival at Marne-la-Vallée – Chessy station: depending on your hotel, an additional walk or hotel shuttle may be required.
Good to know:
-
- Mandatory connection between RER B and RER A
- Possible crowds during peak hours
- Limited space for bulky luggage
- Stairs, corridors and lifts vary depending on the station
- Arrival at the station, not directly at your hotel
- Extra vigilance recommended in major stations and busy trains
Who is it for?
The RER is a good option for solo travellers, couples or friends with little luggage, who are mainly looking for the lowest fare and are used to public transport.
For families with children, pushchairs or bulky luggage, and for travellers staying at a Disney or partner hotel, a direct service such as Magical Shuttle from CDG can make the journey simpler and more comfortable after arriving at the airport.
Option 3 : Magical Shuttle Private, the door-to-door private transfer
A private transfer is a pre-booked, chauffeur-driven option that takes you directly from CDG Airport to your hotel or destination, with no connections.
Standard private transfer services:
- Airport meet and greet: your driver waits for you at the exit of the baggage reclaim area with a sign bearing your name.
- Fixed price in advance: the fare is known at the time of booking.
- Available 24/7: service available with advance booking.

| Limousine | 8 passengers | 6 pieces of luggage | € 400 | Ford Lincoln |
Who is it for?
Private transport is particularly well suited to travellers looking for a direct and comfortable journey from CDG, especially in the case of a late arrival, bulky luggage, family travel, or a need for door-to-door service to the hotel.
Other private transfer providers or private hire vehicle services may also offer this type of journey. Before booking, it is recommended to check the final price, the pick-up point, luggage capacity, conditions in the event of a flight delay, and the availability of a child seat.
Option 4 : taxi at CDG
Taxis are available outside the arrivals terminals at Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport.
At the airport, it is recommended to use only the official taxi ranks signposted in the terminals, and not to accept offers from drivers approaching travellers in the arrivals hall.
Key figures
The CDG to Disneyland® Paris journey does not benefit from a uniform official fixed fare, unlike certain journeys between Paris and the airports. The fare is generally calculated by the meter and may vary depending on traffic, time of day, day of travel and any additional charges.
- Journey time: 45 to 60 minutes in normal conditions, longer in heavy traffic
- Pick-up: at the airport taxi ranks
What you need to know
An official taxi can be useful if you arrive without a booking, if your flight is delayed, or if you need to find a transport option directly at the airport. It allows you to reach your hotel or destination without any connections.
However, the final cost is less predictable than with a pre-booked transfer. Waiting times at the taxi ranks may also be longer during peak arrival times at CDG. The availability of a child seat or a vehicle suitable for several pieces of luggage is not guaranteed.
Who is it for?
An official taxi is best suited to travellers who have not booked transport in advance or who need an immediate solution on arrival.
For families, groups or travellers who want to know the price before departure, a pre-booked option such as Magical Shuttle Private may offer greater peace of mind.
CDG to Disneyland® Paris: key points to check before choosing your transport
Before booking your journey between CDG and Disneyland® Paris, do not compare prices alone. Your flight time, luggage, whether you are travelling with children, and the exact location of your hotel can make a real difference.Operating hours
If you arrive during the day, several options are available: shuttle, RER, taxi or private transfer. However, for a late-night or very early arrival, always check the available timetables. Outside shuttle or RER operating hours, Magical Shuttle Private can be a suitable option to book in advance.
Your exact destination
Depending on your stay, you may be staying at a Disney Hotel, a partner hotel, in Val d’Europe, at Villages Nature Paris, or near Marne-la-Vallée – Chessy station. Before choosing your transport, check whether you will be dropped off directly at your hotel, at the station, or at a nearby stop.
Luggage and children
With cabin luggage only, the RER may suit some travellers. With several suitcases, a pushchair, or young children, a direct option with dedicated luggage space can make arrival simpler and more comfortable.
Total price
Compare the total cost of the journey, not just the price per person. For a family or group, an option with a group fare, luggage included, or direct hotel drop-off may be better value than it first appears.
Pick-up point at CDG
CDG is a large airport. Before you arrive, check exactly where to take your transport: the Magical Shuttle stop, the RER station, the official taxi rank, or the driver meeting point.

For travellers staying at a Disney or partner hotel, the Magical Shuttle service at Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) offers a direct option when the timetable matches your flight.
