Any suggestions on transfers from CDG to the Effel area? We are on a 20 day visit to Paris, London and surrounding countryside and will have alot of luggage. At least 4 of us.
Car? Taxi? Train?

Here are several ideas:
__________
1. Taxi - Depending upon number in your party, it may be the cheapest option. (information provided is for the outbound leg)
a. http://www.taxisg7.com/
b. Call yourself the day before pickup, hotels will call for you but you may pay extra for this service.
c. English speaking operator 01 41 27 66 99
d. Cost estimate: 50€+
e. Travel time about 1 hour
__________
2. Train – RER B to RER C station Champ de Mars (as an example but you can exit any Métro station and take any line)
a. Adults 8.50€
b. Children 5.90€
c. Frequency – every 10-15 minutes
d. About 28 minutes travel time to Châtelet (overall time is about one hour+ from baggage claim to hotel)

__________
3. Bus - Neither the Roissybus to Opéra nor the AF buses will take you close to the 7th arrondissement. You could use them part of the way but I find it easier to stick with a single transportation option.
__________
4. Shuttles (I do not recommend shared ride shuttles)
a. http://www.paris-blue-airport-shuttle.fr/
b. http://www.shuttle-inter.com/
c. http://www.beeshuttle.com/
d. http://www.allonavette.fr/
e. http://andyparistaxi.blogspot.com/ (fixed fee 60€)
Final note: should you decide upon a shuttle, I prefer those which require payment when services are rendered, not in advance. If the van fails to show on time, take a taxi for about the same price.
