TGV TRAINS FROM CDG AIRPORT TO DISNEYLAND PARISThe fastest but at 35 euros not the cheapest, route to get to Disneyland Paris by train from CDG Airport is by the TGV, a ten minute train ride with approximately half an hours wait for your train. To use the TGV you need to make your way to 'Aeroport Charles de Gaulle 2' train station - within terminal 2 of the airport, it is located between Halls C/D and E/F. This station is for both TGV and RER trains.
If you have arrived at Terminal 1 you will have arrived on Level 3 , you need to descend to the lower (shop) level following the signs for CDGVAL, this is the free airport shuttle train that will take you to Terminal 2 and the TGV train station in around 10 minutes. It is well signposted alongside the 'Paris par train' signs.
Follow the signs as above,you will see this display of train times and 'Gare (station) SNCF' and 'Paris by train' signs as you enter the access to the CDGVAL simply follow the arrow.
An escalator will take you to the shuttle platform.
You will have very little time to wait as they operate every five minutes.
The CDG VAL shuttle train will take you to Terminal 2 after stopping at the carparks and 'Roissypole' before getting you to the TGV station.
From Terminal 3 it is a short walk to the RER railway station within the Roissypole complex where you can also pick up the CDG VAL . After arriving at Terminal 2 (or if your flight has arrived here) by continuing to follow the signs for 'Gare SNCF' you will eventually reach the large antrum that is level 4, you are greeted by the massive flight display board and SNCF's (the French railway company) not too subtle pink columns letting you know you have to go down to get to the station.

You will find plenty of ticket vending machines at the station. You have to use the yellow or white SNCF Grandes Lignes machines and not the Billetterie Ile-de-France vending machines as they sell tickets for the RER B regional trains. You must use a 'smart chip enabled' card at these machines or cash.
They are 'touch screens' with multi-language choices and easy to use. You are buying a ticket for 'Marne-La-Vallée – Chessy' which is the station at the entrance to Disneyland Paris and it will cost you around 18 euros.
If you have a problem with paying for your tickets with your card or do not have euros you can buy them from the nearby SNCF ticket office, though this can be a busy place at times.Once you have your ticket you then descend to Level 1 - which is a mid-level landing and seems like a great waste of space, before continuing to follow the signs .
Remember the station is split into two distinct sides, the one you want is for the TGV high speed intercity trains ), the other is for RER suburban trains (for Paris city centre - be sure and choose the right one! Just follow the signs or ask for assistance.
It is only a 10 minute train ride and when you arrive at Marne-la-Vallee-Chessy once you leave the station you are only a couple of minutes, left to Disney village and right to Parc Disneyland.
