|
To make your way to Paris Disneyland from the the city and its airports you have to access Line A of the cities suburban train network, the RER - so you don't need to drive. This is made relatively easy because of the excellent transport links within the city of Paris.

From the main railway stations to Line A:From Gare du Nord:
On arriving at' Gare du Nord' station you need to make your way to either the RER line B in the direction of 'Robinson' / St, Remy les Chevreuse or the line D to 'Melun / Malesherbes. Both lines will take you to Chatelet Les-Halles station (next stop) where you can catch the RER line A4 to Marne-la-Vallee (Disneyland Paris) - sometimes abbreviated to to 'MLV Chessy' on some display screens.
Chatelet Les-Halles is actually the largest underground station in Europe but don't let that put you off as it is well signposted and provides the largest choice of metro options within the city. You have to make your way to the RER line A4 and take the train in the direction of Marne-la-Vallee. On the Platform you will find an overhead illuminated sign highlighting the route (see here) of the arriving train with all the stops on that route lit up.
