Thank you soooooo much for making this video!!! I literally couldn't sleep last night thinking about this and was considering booking a private transfer as I'll be on my own with my young daughter. This has made me think that I can do it!!! Thanks so much!!
@@FairyGodmother Thank you! One thing I'm worried about is the turnstiles and getting my daughter through as I want to keep hold of her if possible!! I'm worried that with luggage etc this might be tricky!
Thank you so much for this very clear and helpful video. I will be going with my family in March 2020, and this is the route we propose to take. Thanks again.
I must admit to being nervous. I'm going with my children and five grandchildren. I was really grateful for how you showed the RER ticket machines - really clear. We haven't yet bought our Eurostar tickets because they haven't gone on sale yet. Is it VERY much cheaper to go this more indirect route? Thanks.
Very informative. Have I seen this vlog yesterday, we wont be able to spend an extortionate amount of money using the Magic Shuttle. With the ongoing strike and the language problem, we were told to go to board another train.
This is a very clear and helpful video, thank you. We are visiting again in April 2020. How did you find taking your cases through the ticket barriers? Do they have wider ones like they have in London?
Hi!! We are here and everyday so far when we come in to the cheesy station we get stuck and can’t get out. There are doors like for tickets but we don’t need to ride again, we just need to get out to head to Disney. I hope this makes sense. We are coming from Paris to Disney.
You have to put your train ticket in again to exit the station. If you lost it just stand by the Disability doors and when someone else goes through you can follow them if you are fast. Keep hold of your ticket and use it to exit station
Approx how long does it take to get from the eurostar onto the train RER B? Looking at a late night arrival at Gare du Nord and want to make sure we would have enough time to get onto the RER train
Helpful. Thanks for your help and detail. Can you confirm you basically buy two tickets and that will get you there and back? There is no times on the ticket you can just make the return journey once?
So if there are 3 adults travelling if we buy 6 that will be for there and back from gare du nord to Disney? Also do you have to pay for kids? If I decide to get a taxi do you know roughly how much it is? Thanks the video is very good.
Yes you can buy six tickets they are not dated. Kids have to pay but I don’t know how much or what age counts as a child fare. I have got an Uber from Gare Du Nord to Disneyland it was about €70 it’s a 40 minute drive
Hi how long does train take from chalet lrs halles to marne le vallee - Disney. Also is train a double decker? Gonna attempt on our next visit hopefully!
Hello! That part takes about 35 mins and yes the train is a double decker and I personally love to sit up top and take in the views on the way! You can’t miss Disneyland because it’s the last stop on the line. (RER line A). As a little tip I advise you to make notes in your phone. That way you can check your phone notes as you go in case you have a memory lapse or panic on the way!
Hiya yes will take screenshot and notes! Just to be on safe side! Is it safe? As watched another video and they said lots of pickpockets around and don’t talk to anyone! I suppose just have your wits about you like in London really?
@@millielovehearts I agree don’t talk to people at the station because sometimes dodgy people can offer to “help”’you buy your ticket then they just harass you until you give them money. This has never happened to me but I heard about it. Pickpockets are the same as any city or tourist area just keep your possessions close to you and your purse somewhere it can’t easily be grabbed. Again I have never been pick pocketed and I have been on this route so many times I have lost count!
Great clear info thank you Liz I can now see from video my daughter won’t be able to walk that distance can u recommend a good taxi firm we can book please is Uber one of them and any idea of price from Paris to Val de Europe as we stay there before we stay in Disney we were hoping to get euro star to Disney and then taxi to Val de Europe but can’t get Eurostar straight through thank you
Fairy Godmother oh right, so how long does it take to get there? I’ve booked a little trip via Gare du Nord and not sure how long it takes overall - thanks 😊
Hi, Many thanks for this video its so informative, we got caught out last year when a French man came over and started to take over the process as i was not sure what to click on and then having to get money out to pay him back from the cash machine in the station, which i then discovered did not work at DLRP but luckily the attendant let us through, so i wanted to make sure that i get it spot on this time. Just wanted to confirm that if i wanted to get return tickets would i just need to click on round trip and then Pay?
@@FairyGodmother So in our group there are x 2 adults and x 1 teenager, would i need to select x 6 Full Fare? i noticed @ 5.07 in the clip that it mentions no more than 3 purchases, does this mean that i will have to do x 3 of 2 tickets at a time?
@@carolivory7818 you got me there I’m not sure about the limit on number of purchases. You should select 6 tickets (two each) and hope for the best! See what happens because I don’t see why you can’t get 6 I have bought 4 before and that’s more than 3!
@@FairyGodmother I will give it a go, thank you so much for this video it has been so helpful, i am sure i will watch this a few more times before we go on the 24th August, hope you are also able to get back to the Magic again soon x.
@@FairyGodmother that’s good then! I’d of thought there would be more passport control etc to go through from either end to get to the platform. Unless that doesn’t apply for taxi pick up :)
@@SarahFreer no you go through both French and British Passport Control and security at St Pancras. Since Brexit they now have customs officers on the end of that Platform at Gare Du Nord and they randomly stop people to check your bags.
@@FairyGodmother aww brill we went to disney via paris our first time we followed your video got there in quick time we got lost in gard du nord on our way back lol we made our train on time tho thanks it was very helpful
Thank you for this video!
You are welcome

You can do it! Maybe make some notes for the journey step by step in your phone so if you panic you can refer to the notes.
@@FairyGodmother Thank you! One thing I'm worried about is the turnstiles and getting my daughter through as I want to keep hold of her if possible!! I'm worried that with luggage etc this might be tricky!
@@rachael4438 they have wider ones for luggage or disabled people you can use that one?
@@FairyGodmother Thank you, I’ll look for those! 😊
Extremely helpful video, thank you so much.

You are welcome I remember I was nervous the first time I tried this route but its easy when you know how! Plus so much cheaper!

Really helpful, thanks so much for taking the time to do this
You are welcome! I was nervous the first time I travelled this way so I wanted to help others
Thank you, this helped a lot. We are going to Disneyland in May and we are a bit anxious at the thought of a metro journey in a forien country
I am so pleased this has helped you.

They do have wider ones but I manage with the normal barriers it works ok

So basically, if you've got the option, get the direct train.
That true you would only go this way to save money or if the direct train isn’t running.
From the time stamp on RER B to MLV did it take you 3hrs to get there?
No. The clips are filmed a few hours apart. We actually got off at Val D’Europe and settled into hotel before going on to Disneyland
Fairy Godmother oh right, so how long does it take to get there? I’ve booked a little trip via Gare du Nord and not sure how long it takes overall - thanks 😊
St Pancras to garde du Nord is 2.5 hours and RER from there to disney is 50 mins
Fairy Godmother excellent thank you

To get a return ticket you just select 2 tickets. The tickets are not dated so put one aside for the journey back

@@carolivory7818 just a little tip make notes of the key points from my video in your phone notes. Then you have something quick to refer to.
Did I notice here when you got off your Eurostar at the end of the platform there was taxi drivers etc holding signs for their passengers?
Yes
@@FairyGodmother that’s good then! I’d of thought there would be more passport control etc to go through from either end to get to the platform. Unless that doesn’t apply for taxi pick up :)

Hello, how far is Disneyland from Gare Do Nord?
In miles? I don’t I le But about an hour on the RER trains
can you do the return jouney pls ta
Yes I intend to do that. I’m always so tired coming home that’s why I didn’t film it yet! But I will.
