Disneyland Paris Transfer: Private Van vs RER vs Shuttle

Disneyland Paris is in Marne-la-Vallée, roughly 30 km east of central Paris. Getting there is easy on paper, but with children, strollers and suitcases the choice of transfer makes a real difference to how the day starts and ends.

By RER A

The RER A line runs from central Paris to Marne-la-Vallée–Chessy, the station at the park entrance, in around 40 minutes. It is the cheapest option, but trains can be crowded at peak times and awkward with luggage or strollers, and the ride home after the evening show can be busy.

From the airports

Charles de Gaulle has its own TGV station with services toward Marne-la-Vallée–Chessy, so it is well connected by rail, though you should check current times. Orly does not have a comparable direct train, so a shuttle or a road transfer is more common there.

By shuttle

Shared shuttles run on a schedule and are usually less expensive than a private ride. They may stop at several hotels on the way, and you plan around their timetable instead of yours.

By private van

A private van takes you door to door from your hotel, CDG or Orly, drops you at the park entrance, and waits for the return at the time you choose. There is room for luggage and strollers, and child seats can be arranged on request. Transfers to Disneyland Paris start from €220, and we can add a stop at La Vallée Village, the nearby outlet shopping center. Our vans seat from 6 up to 12 passengers.

A few tips

• Arrive before the park opens so you start with the shortest queues.
• Check the park's opening hours and show times on the day, and plan the return accordingly.
• Traveling with a large family? Count the luggage as well as the passengers when choosing the vehicle.

In Short

The RER is the cheapest way there. A private van costs more, but for families it avoids crowded trains, luggage struggles and fixed schedules, and it brings you back whenever you are ready to leave.
