Bus
The cheapest transportation is public buses. You will need 3 t+ tickets at 1.9 EUR each, costing you 5.7 EUR in total. It is more advantageous to buy tickets in a pack of 10 with a 25% discount (info here). The trip will then cost you about 5 EUR, and you'll have tickets for further travel around the city. The downside is the travel time of over 80 minutes.
You have a choice of 2 lines
An alternative is the direct bus service "Le Bus Direct", where lines 2 or 4 will take you to the very center of Paris. Buses stop at Terminals 1 and 2. A ticket costs 15 EUR, and the journey takes 60-90 minutes. At night, you can take the night line N140, and tickets can be purchased from the driver or at the airport machine. More information can be found at this link.
You can also choose "Roissybus" running to/from Opera metro station. The bus operates every 15 - 20 minutes and costs 13.7 EUR.
RER Train
The faster transportation is the RER train running from terminals 1 and 2. Line B takes you to Gare du Nord or Notre Dame Cathedral. The journey to the center of Paris takes about 35 minutes, and trains depart every 5-10 minutes. Trains run from 5:30 AM to 11:50 PM. Tickets can be purchased from machines for 11.4 EUR, and you can pay by card.
Taxi and Uber
The most comfortable transportation is a taxi, which you can use on-site or order through Gettransfer. This has the advantage of a lower price, better access, and the possibility of arranging a child seat. The taxi fare should be around 50 EUR. Suitable alternatives may also be offers from private carriers on the Uber portal.
Car Rental
The center of Paris is less than 30 kilometers from the airport, but in some cases, driving can be a truly intense adrenaline experience. It's no wonder that in other parts of France, bad drivers are said to "drive like a Parisian." If you want to avoid this experience, we recommend relying on public transportation. If you still plan to rent a car, offers from all car rental companies can be found at this link.
Night Transportation to/from the Airport
For transportation to/from the airport at night, you can use line N143 running between Roissypole at Terminal 3 and Gare de l’Est train station. The journey takes about an hour, and the ticket costs 8 EUR. You may find the timetable or stop map for line 143 useful.
