Hi,
What is recommended for travel from CDG to my hotel in paris (hotel Victoria). Taxi? Bus?
Also, I have to go to switzerland on the 10th, from paris, and I need to buy a train ticket. Should I try to buy the ticket now? I dont want to be standing for 3 hours. How can i buy it now by the way?
Thanks,
kevin
Take the train (RER) from the airport into Paris and then take a taxi from the train station to the hotel (so you don't have to haul baggage through the metro.)

You may be able to buy your ticket on line on www.voyages-sncf.com.
For some discounted fares you will have a self-print option (sncf doesn't mail paper tickets outside Europe), if this option is not offered you will have to collect your ticket in any french railway station or in a 'boutique sncf' (with an US non-chipped card you won't be able to use a vending machine and will have to use a manned booth).
Or you can buy directly either a the station or a in boutique sncf
I used the Airport Connection shuttle service. I signed up online - registered my flight information with them, which they then tracked. Once we got to baggage claim, we phoned to let them know we had arrived and they picked us up shortly after that. We shared the shuttle with other people, so we were all dropped off according to hotel locations. It was very easy and I wouldn't have done it any other way.

Hi When we visited Paris in May we took a taxi from Charles De Gaulle to Latin Quarter, we were stuck in a traffic jam for an hour, an extremely bad decision, recommend you take the airport train to the city, then taxi from rail station to your hotel if it is too far to walk. I suggest you email Hotel Victoria and ask name of nearest train station and directions once you arrive, eg what exit to take from the station and hoe long to walk to hotel.
Good Luck,
Mike
WOW! I just checked train tickets and they are expensive! I was told about 50 euro's round trip but looks like they are about 115 euros. I think i'm going to book a flight instead. Too bad, i was looking forward to a relaxing train ride.
Of course visit the wonderful Eiffel Tower!!!It had always been a dream for me to see the Eiffel Tower, I have been wanting to visit this attraction since I was 8 years old. -At that age I got to know some info about the world's 7 wonders:) It is really a pleasure to see the Eiffel Tower and also,get up to the highest point where you can have a great view of Paris. This monument is really superb, reagrdless the season of the year:)
I love the art at the Orsay. Up on level 5 there seems to be one masterpiece after another including those from master born in the countries surrounding France. With works by Van Gogh, Rembrant and Klimt plus locals Monet, Manet, Renoir and Toulouse Latrec this is my favourite gallery in the world. There may not be the wealth of Italian masters here as you find in the Louvre but it is certainly a place with outstanding art in an excellent setting (the old Orsay train station).
The place to relax, especially on summer months when the garden looks like a beach. People are everywhere taking their sunbathe. "Le jardin du Luxembourg
Ça fait longtemps que je n'y étais pas venu
Il y a des enfants qui courent et des feuilles qui tombent
Il y a des étudiants qui rêvent qu'ils ont fini leurs études
Et des professeurs qui rêvent qu'ils les commencent
Il y a des amoureux qui remontent discrètement
Le tapis roux que l'automne a deroulé devant eux
Et puis il y a moi, je suis seul, j'ai un peu froid" (Joe Dassin)
In english:
The garden of Luxembourg
It is a long time since I had come there
There are children who run and leaves which fall
There are students who dream that they finished their studies
And professors who dream that they begin them
There are lovers who go inconspicuously
The red carpet spreaded out by the autumn in front of them
And then there is me, I am alone, I am a bit cold

What do these artists/composers have in common? All are featured on the playlist on FIP, a remarkable French radio station.
Why I love it: 1. The breadth of their play list is incredible. It spans hundreds of years, and every musical genre imaginable. The mix is full of surprises, flowing seamlessly across genre and era. 2. No commercials. 3. No annoying DJ's, just infrequent, brief talk between the music. 4. You can listen to it, free, on the internet.
When in Paris, tune to FM 105.1

Mum (a fluent french speaker and francophile) told me that it is the 'done' thing in Paris to people watch. There are pavement cafes and hundreds of green metal seats dotted around the city's parks, so you have no excuse for not sitting down and watching the world go by. Whereas most British people would take a book/football/newspaper to a park, people in Paris seem quite content sitting around, not talking to one another and taking in the view. It's very relaxing, and you can pick up on the latest fashion trends. Square Vivandi (site of the oldest tree in Paris) is a great place for doing this - we just found the atmosphere so relaxing in the middle of the city's hustle and bustle. It's south of the Notre Dame Cathedral.
