Taxi. I read some taxis can take 4.

Hi glen,

You have to arrange ahead for a taxi for four.

I have from my notes:

One taxi is about 45E, takes 3 people.

Taxi G7
01.41.27.66.99 English-speaking
01.41.27.66.66 Airport transport

Taxi Bleus
01.49.36.10.10 English-speaking

From CDG to Paris there are the Paris Shuttle (parishuttle.com), and the Bee shuttle (bee-shuttle.com) about 15 E each.

Bee shuttle charges 90 E for 4 people in a private van.

Paris Shuttle charges 120E for a limo.

Also [email protected]--make it to the attention of EVELYN

Hope this helps.

It's cheaper to take the taxi. I've done the math. You don't need to book ahead, you get in the taxi line and when they see all four with all that luggage, the guy with the station wagon taxi gets to take you. When you're booking out of your hotel, though, and ask them to get you a taxi, you do need to request the larger taxi to accommodate all four of you.

We only once ever had to take two cabs, but I recall that was in Spain, not France.

Absolutely no need to book ahead for a taxi of four. In fact, most airport cabs in Paris now are station wagons or large enough to accommodate 4 or more.

Agree that there's no need to reserve taxi for four. Never have, always got one.

However, on return to airport, you'll tend to get a larger, roomier taxi if the concierge reserves a taxi for four the night before.
