Taxi and Uber in Paris
Paris taxis from CDG have fixed regulated fares: €56 to the Right Bank, €65 to the Left Bank. This is why pre-booked transfers are popular — fixed prices, no surprises.
Local tip for Paris
Paris has two main airports: CDG (25 km northeast) and Orly (13 km south). From CDG, the RER B train to Châtelet is €11.80 and takes 35 minutes — usually the best option for solo travelers. The flat-rate taxi to central Paris is €56 (right bank) or €65 (left bank), regulated and transparent. Pre-booked transfers at €45–85 justify themselves for families, groups, and Orly arrivals where the bus/tram combo is more awkward.

How we rated each Paris transfer service
For Paris we tested each platform against the €56/€65 flat taxi rate and the RER B train on three routes: CDG → Le Marais, CDG → Montmartre, and CDG → Versailles. We weighted fixed-price handling of notorious A1 motorway traffic during rush hour and driver terminal knowledge at the sprawling CDG complex.
Our verdict: best airport transfer in Paris
Paris is a split decision depending on airport. From CDG: the RER B train at €11.80 wins for solo travelers; the €56/€65 flat taxi is fine for couples with luggage. Pre-booked transfers win for families (free child seats via Welcome Pickups), groups of 3+ where €65 split beats three train tickets, late arrivals after RER shuts (01:00), and Orly arrivals where train connections are less convenient. GetTransfer bids often undercut the flat taxi at €45–60.

Common questions about Paris airport transfers
GetTransfer's bidding system typically delivers the lowest prices — €40–55 for a sedan. intui.travel offers shared transfers from around €20 per person if you don't mind extra stops.
For CDG Terminal 2, absolutely — it's a massive terminal complex and having someone meet you inside Arrivals is genuinely helpful. For Orly (much smaller airport), the premium is harder to justify unless you're traveling with children and need free car seats.
Yes — all four services offer CDG to Disneyland routes. Welcome Pickups and Kiwitaxi are particularly popular for this route due to family-friendly features. Expect €60–90 for a sedan (35 km, 45 minutes).
Welcome Pickups: 24+ hours ahead, but it keeps a 20% fee unless you take a full-value coupon instead of cash. Kiwitaxi: 5 hours on Economy and Comfort cars, 24 hours on Business and larger minibuses — miss it and the prepayment is gone. GetTransfer: the Standard fare does not refund at any notice; the Flexible fare refunds in full up to departure. intui.travel: 48+ hours on the Standard fare, with the exact deadline set by the carrier and shown against the offer. See our cancellation policies guide for the full terms.
Allow 60–90 minutes during the day and 45–60 minutes late at night. CDG is 25 km northeast of Paris, and the A1 motorway is notorious for traffic jams, especially during morning (7–10am) and evening (4–8pm) rush hours.
