Getting there and around

Arriving: Paris Charles de Gaulle (CDG) is 45 minutes from the center; Orly (ORY) is 30 minutes. Taxis from both airports charge a flat fare.

  • The metro is fast and reaches almost everywhere. Buy a Navigo Easy card or use contactless.
  • The RER B train runs from CDG to central Paris in about 35 minutes.
  • Taxis from CDG and Orly charge a fixed fare to the center.
  • Vélib bike share and walking are great ways to get around central Paris.

Booking rooms for your wedding group

  • Most guests come in high season (April to June, September to October). Set up a room block or share hotel picks 9 to 12 months ahead, because good rooms go first.
  • Keep guests in one or two areas if you can. Shared shuttles and meeting points get much easier.
  • You can get around here without a car, so a central base near restaurants works well for most guests.
  • Ask hotels for a group rate with no attrition penalty, a cut-off date about 30 to 60 days before the wedding, and free delivery of welcome bags.
