Hi Folks,
My brother and his family (2AD & 3CH) are going to Normandy (Eurocamp) for a fortnight and would like to fit in a days visit to Paris to see the sights etc.
Can anyone advise on the best way to do this? He will have his car with him, and is aware that it is 200km away. So he was wondering if they would be better off driving to a certain place / town, parking up and getting the train or something rather than trying to drive / park in Paris.
All advice gratefully received.
Russ.
Although I don't know the site personally, I would suggest you take the train as parking and driving in Paris can be hell.
You could also invest in a day's pass for transport .. or several days. Ask at a major metro station.

Cheers for that,
Can anyone recommend a station/town where they could "Park & Ride" so to speak?

It might help if you said whereabouts in Normandy they are staying. Eurocamp are at several sites.

Coming in from the Normandy direction would lead naturally to somewhere like Mantes-la-Jolie which is on the RER line J into Paris St Lazare or a bit closer Poissy or St Germain en Laye which are both on RER Line A.
All three places are close to the A13 motorway from Caen.

Many Thanks Guys.
