Hi there
Trains from Soissons and Compiegne go direct into Gare du Nord Paris. (Some trains from Compiegne stop at Creil so you have to change.) Trains are more regular, every 20 minutes or so, from Compiegne compared to every 70 to 90 minutes from Soissons. www.voyages-sncf.com/leisure/fr/launch/home/ From there you will need to travel to Marne La Vallee. You could also travel from Villers Coterets (sp) but I don%26#39;t know how often they run from there or where you need to change (if indeed you do). Check the link above
Also Keycamp do have a caoch that runs from site at around €20 per adult and €15 per child, so you may wish to consider this option. We used it once and the only draw back is you have to be back for a certain time (7pm in our case) and IMO I would rather be able to choose what time to return. Coming home at that time means you may miss some celebrations that can only happen when dark such as Fireworks
Personally, I would drive, especially with 6 children, much easier and simpler and cheaper too. If you use your sat nav it will take 45 minutes to get there - far quicker than the train. You will also see some of the area if you set your sat nav for quickest route as it will take you through the country lanes before the motorway. It%26#39;s much nicer drive than all main road.

Hi there
Trains from Soissons and/or Compiegne run directly to Gard du Nord. Trains are more regular form Compiegne although you may have to change at Creil
www.voyages-sncf.com/leisure/fr/launch/home/
You may even try Villers Coterets (sp) although I have no idea how often they run nor where they run to
I assume when you say you are camoing in Keycamp, you mean Berny Riviere? In that case the site run a bus trip to DLP for around €20 per adult and €15 per child. The only drawback with this option is you have to leave at a certain time and you may not have done all you wanted. It may mean, as we did, you miss the Fireworks, which would be a shame as it%26#39;s a fantastic show to see.
IMO, your best option, and also your cheapest, is to drive. Given you have 6 children I would also advise this for toilet stops etc. If you use your sat nav it should take you via country roads and and around the country lanes, giving you a nice view of the area. It will also take you just 45 minutes, compared to at least an hour by coach and even longer by train
HTH, and sorry it%26#39;s taken so long for a reply

Hmmm, there must be a big delay somewhere - I thought my reply was lost, it wasn%26#39;t!

Thank you your reply was very helpful, we thought we were a lot further away from disney, my sister and i dont mind doing that drive, but will train it into Paris,Thanks once again, Cherry

Hi again
Yes, defidntely get the train to Paris - you will struggle to find somewhere to park plus driving is Paris is quite hairy! lol Trains stop as above which is pretty central for all the sights
Train travel in France is not really like what we have here in the UK. For a start trains are on time but they are, IMO, cleaner and more reliable too
have fun!

Hi Thanks again for the info, do they have post codes in France to set the sat nav or do i just put in the name of the village, sorry but its our first time, thanks Cherry
|||
Hi Again =)
You can set your satnav to take the European codes - they are long and lat, quite confusing IMO - but ours has always found the town/vilage so we dont bother changing the settings, just put in the town.
