acwmom Posted December 13, 2017 #2 Share Posted December 13, 2017 I am looking for suggestions for a private limo to take us to the Eiffel Tower and then our hotel. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Where do you need the limo to pick you up? The airport? Post-cruise? If you could provide some additional details, it would enable us to provide you with an answer.

acwmom Posted December 13, 2017 #4 Share Posted December 13, 2017 From the airport to the Eiffel Tower for some photos and then to Disney hotel Cheyenne. Sent from my iPad using Forums Assuming you're arriving at CDG? It may be better to go directly to the hotel, drop your luggage, then take a train into Paris. If you're arriving early in the morning, it can be foggy/overcast, and the Eiffel Tower may not even be visible. In addition, traffic is horrific in the morning. The train system is easy/efficient and you could go at your leisure. Where will your cruise be departing from? Many of the companies dock right in Paris, within sight (and a 20 minute walk) to the Eiffel Tower. When we were in Paris in 2015, it was day 3 of our trip before the tower was even visible at the top. Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Got2Cruise Posted December 13, 2017 #5 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Contact your hotel. They recommended a car service. I’m sure there are cheaper methods but when you are dealing with an overnight flight and then immigration, going by car service reduces stress Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We used one when we did our Uniworld Paris/Normandy cruise. I'm trying to understand when/where the river cruise fits in. So far, all that has been mentioned is Disney. Is this a plan to go into the city just to see the Eiffel Tower, and then proceed to the hotel? It sounds like it. That makes for quite an excursion after an overnight flight, with no guarantee that the tower will even be visible at that time of day.

Heartfelttraveler Posted December 14, 2017 Author #8 Share Posted December 14, 2017 It is my daughter and her husband. They will first be in Northern Finland at the glass Igloos in Ivalo Finland. Then Paris Disney for three nights. Their flight into Paris arrives late in the afternoon from Ivalo through Helsinki. From reading these boards, and planing a Rhine river cruise from Amsterdam to Basel, I knew that many go to Paris for a day or two before or after their cruise and may have ideas for ground transportation.

Robin We will be on the Uniworld Paris/Normandy cruise in Aug and we are coming in a few days early so could you tell me what car service you used? I have been looking for information on transportation from the airport to the hotel but there is not much information out there. We land in Paris at 6 am.

beezer248 Posted December 14, 2017 #10 Share Posted December 14, 2017 I am looking for suggestions for a private limo to take us to the Eiffel Tower and then our hotel. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Look at the Viator site- easy to book a private car through them. Or ask a travel agent to arrange a car through Travel Bound. I have had great luck with both companies. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been looking for information on transportation from the airport to the hotel but there is not much information out there. We land in Paris at 6 am. We booked a private car through SuperShuttle the last time. We are returning to Paris in March, and with my AAA discount, the rate is 60 euros to go directly to our hotel. The driver was waiting for us as soon as we cleared immigration/customs the last time. The other option I am considering is blacklane. And, out of curiosity, I checked out Vlator, and they were more expensive than either of these options. Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisingmimi Posted December 16, 2017 #12 Share Posted December 16, 2017 I can recommend a private car service that we used when we visited Paris for a day while docked in LeHarve. If you want to do any touring he is fabulous. I will be happy to share his name with you. MiMi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
