Getting from Charles de Gaulle to Ecole Militaire?

What is the easiest/fastest metro route to get from the airport to Ecole Militaire?



Thanks!

You have 2 options :



1) Take the RER B to Saint-Michel-Notre Dame, than the RER C to Champs de Mars-Tour Eiffel, and then walk along the Champ de Mars to Ecole Miliatire.



2) Take RER B to Châtelet-les-Halles, than Metro line 1 (direction La Défense) to Concorde, and then metro line 8 (direction Balard) to Ecole Militaire.

I would take RER B to Gare du Nord, Metro Line 4 to Strasbourg St Denis [direction Porte d%26#39;Orleans], Line 8 to Ecole Militaire [direction Balard].

Thanks everyone! How much will it be approximately? Is it just the cost of one metro ticket, including all the transfers? How much is one ticket anyway?




|||



Easiest/fastest is a taxi, of course.





Using public transport, the best way is the Roissybus to Opéra, from there on it%26#39;s direct on line 8 to Ecole militaire. So it%26#39;s better than the RER, a route that would involve two changes.




|||



Yeah, about the costs:



- Taxi, about € 45-50



- Roissybus, € 8.50 for each passenger + 1 métro ticket each.




|||



Please note that the RER C is closed between Austerlitz and Invalides through 26 August, so you will not be able to change from the RER B at St. Michel. There is a replacement bus, however.

I don%26#39;t want to intimidate, but I would avoid Les Halles when coming from the airport because it%26#39;s the biggest and busiest station.





When we arrived in Paris, we had to change train there. The station was so big and it wasn%26#39;t so easy to find right platform even there where signs. And carrying all the luggage didn%26#39;t make it any easier. As it was our honeymoon, I think we had our first marital fight there when we couldn%26#39;t find our way to right metro :D





So I would prefer changing trains in some other stations if I had a choice.




|||



And it costs 8 euros from the airport to Paris and it includes the change.
