Taxi Station Paris

where is the taxi stand Gare du Nord?

You can find the information you are looking for on the page of the SNCF stations for the Gare du Nord here if you are reading French / have Google translated. This taxi stand is situated near the Eurostar platform, at the southwest end of the station, on Rue de Dunkerque. Otherwise you will find taxi services in front of the central station at Place Napoléon III / Rue de Dunkerque outside the busy hours.

Can' t really miss the line, you'll see it when you go outside. Yes then, you can take a taxi on the road without going into the waiting line if it is available (green lights on). Taxi queues are not reserved for customer training, anyone can join them. I found the cabs quite reliably, but they can be quite pricey, and as a comments suggested, you can get one or two poor ones.

So why not use the Paris Metro? It' simple and quite inexpensive to use, and only a few sites are a few hundred meters from the next metro station. Browsing through other issues with the tag paris taxiis eurostar railway station or ask your own query.

Getting to Paris by subway or taxi.............................................

Arriving at the Gare de Nord in Paris, 10 minutes' walking distance from the Gare de l'Est, but by underground or taxi from other Parisian railway stops. Travelling by rail from London to Switzerland, Italy and Spain often involves travelling from Paris by subway or taxi between railway stops. This is a short manual on how to change from Paris railways and railway stops by subway, taxi or RER (Réseau Expressway Régional = Expressway Metro).

You should take a cab or the subway. Underground or RER (Express Metro) is inexpensive and fast. A taxi, on the other side, is a hassle-free way to get across Paris, especially if you have large quantities of baggage, although it will cost more and actually take a little longer than the subway or RER.

So, if I travel alone, I just get on the subway or the RER, but if I'm traveling with my spouse, my children and a lot of baggage or just my spouse and it's a big event, I just go for a taxi. If you want to travel between other railway stops, just take a look at the underground card. You can find a subway and RER chart on the Paris subway website www.ratp.fr. Click on EN for English above, then on Maps.

You can find floor plan maps of each Paris Central Station at www.gares-sncf.com. The crossing of Paris with the subway or the RER-Express-Metro lasts about 30-35 min from hall to hall, in fact my own best lap from the hall at the Gare Du Nord to the hall at the Gare de Lyon is 27 min with the RER.

However, maybe the Eurostar will be a few moments too early, and you need some extra handwork, so here's the general rule: When departing from the UK, you should always allow at least 60 min between the Eurostar which arrives at the Gare du Nord and your connection which leaves one of the other Paris railway yards, with the following exceptions:

If your journey departs from the Gare de l'Est, 45 min between your journeys is enough, as the Gare de l'Est is only ten min on foot from the Gare du Nord. Gare de l'Est is a short distance from the Gare North. If you are taking a sleeping car that you cannot miss, leave it longer, at least 1h30 between your sleeping carriages, for a sleeping person departing from Paris Austerlitz or Gare de Lyon.

If your TGV departs from Paris Montparnasse TGV station, I would allow longer, perhaps 70 min or more, as there is quite a footpath from Montparnasse TGV station to Montparnasse TGV station. You should always plan at least 90 min between your arrival in Paris and the time your Eurostars departs from the Gare du Nord back to London on your way back to the UK, as you will also need to consider the 30 min ?star check-in in this area.

When your platoon reaches the Est Station, 60 min between the platoons is enough, as it is only a 10 min walking distance from the North Station. If your locomotive is arriving in Paris Montparnasse, I would plan at least 1 hr 40 min as it is a 10 min walking distance from Montparnasse TGV station to Montparnasse subway station through the footpaths.

What does the subway charge? Subway fares are â'¬1. Every pass is worth one trip in the centre of Paris by underground, RER (Express Metro) or coach. Underground is not in the price, so go down to the underground and buy a pass at the self-service machine or at the underground box desk.

Often, the desired base subway ticketing is displayed with "t+", it is applicable for a ride on the subway or RER (Express Metro) anywhere in the centre of Paris. Tip: If you are making a homeward voyage, buy two subway fares while driving through Paris on your way there. Use the second Paris cross on your way back, which will save you waiting in line at the cash desk.

You can use your subway ticketing every single purchase date. Keeping your subway passes away from your cell phones, the magnet may damage the magnet strip and not work at the gate. Tip: buy your subway passes on Eurostar! Paris Underground passes can be purchased for around 1.60 or 2 at the Eurostar Café Bars.

It is also possible to buy a 10 ticket underground ticket for around £15.00. Find the right subway platforms.... In contrast to the London Underground, which uses a line name that then goes north and south, the Paris Underground has a number and then a diréction. diréction is the name of the station at the end of the line in the desireddirection.

M5 diréction Place d'Italie, for example, where Place d'Italie is the train station at the end of line 5 in thisdirection. For example, a taxi from Fare du Nord to Fare de Lyon or Fare d'Austerlitz will cost about â'¬17-â'¬22 and will take about 25 min in normal workdays.

From the Eurostar station on the Gare du Nord, go to the Eurostar station, turn right, leave the station's side door and there is a taxi stand right in front of the door and to your right. There is often a long waiting line for cabs, but it goes quite quickly and you should get into a taxi within 10 mins.

Thus you will probably (for example) reach the Gare de Lyon by taxi 40 min after the arrival of your platoon at the Gare du Nord. for example. Be sure to always use the taxi stand for a regularly measured Paris taxi. Paris taxi drivers should now be able to pay by bank card in addition to money. Reserving a taxi.................................................

There is often a waiting line for taxi services at the Gare Du Nord and other Parisian railway station, one way to prevent this is to make an appointment in advance. This is still less expensive than mediating a personal taxi stop, as taxi stops can demand three fold as much as a normal taximeter. A number of Paris based businesses provide pre-bookable taxi services, such as www.g7.fr.

In order to reserve a taxi from the G7: Call the English G7 taxi hotline at +33 1 41 27 66 99, reservations can be made from 7 to 1 hours before the desired taxi. Call when your Eurostar is approaching Paris and you know it's on schedule.

Booking the taxi at least 10 min after the planned departure of your Eurostars. A taxi waits up to 5 min if you do not arrive on schedule (the delay may be billed to you!). Because for some reasons their cabs cannot or will not use the taxi stands, they will usually tell you at the Gare du Nord that the taxi will be on Boulevard du Denain 12, opposite the street directly opposite the front of the station.

When you are collected at the Gare de Lyon, ask to be collected at number 2, Place Louis Arnand, which is outside the Hotel Mercure, simply go to the square in front of the station and turn off it. When you tell them that you are coming by rail, some G7 employees won't let you take a taxi and tell you to call them back on the trip you made.

I even assume that these employees follow their corporate policies, while other employees are happy to team up with you to pre-book one by using an email that doesn't look like a pick-up from the station (which might help clarify the above point!). It is probably better not to mention that you arrive by rail at the above 12 Boulevard de Denain instead of Gare de Nord, and if the employee does not want to take a taxi because he suspects you will arrive by rail,

a) polite to request a pick-up from one of the above mentioned locations instead of "Gare de Nord " or "Gare de Lyon", as it may be a restraint to collect from the railway station that is causing the problems, or b) hang up the telephone, call again and find a help person to reserve it for you.

Yes, you can really prebook one of their cabs, but some G7 employees are more useful than others to bypass their company's more self-destructive and blurry regulations for train-related taxi reservations..... Naturally, on the trip's date you can call G7 taxi with your cell phone as soon as your Eurostar leaves the Channel Tunnel, and then you're sure you've arrived in France on schedule.

At the end of the trip you simply give the taxi the usual payment, depending on the counter, of approx. â'¬17-â'¬22 from Gare du Nord to Gare de Lyon, Gare de Bercy or Gare d'Austerlitz, plus the â'¬5 reservation surcharge.

One recent journey from the Gare de Lyon to the Gare du Nord was â'¬25 inclusive of the reservation charge and a five minutes waiting time as we were a little too slow. It has been recorded that they cannot take taxi reservations during Paris peak hours. In Paris there is a pre-bookable taxi for wheelchairs at www.g7.fr.

In order to make a reservation, call +33 1 41 27 66 99 (English line ) or +33 1 47 39 00 91 and ask for a taxi suitable for wheelchairs. A â'¬5 reservation charge may be levied and reservations may be made from 7 workingdays up to an hours before the taxi is required.

For example, the northern route to Austerlitz is â'¬17-â'¬22 per taxi. Privately owned shuttle service in Paris, between train station or train station & hotels..... This is a personal transport, i.e. someone waits for you and holds a map with your name on it when you leave the Paris platforms. There is no need to stay 10 min in the taxi line.

Conversely, a personal transport will cost you an additional â'¬60+, much more than the â'¬17-â'¬22 you would spend on a taxi. www.taxi-paris. net (+33 6 07 60 49 14, tim@taxi-paris. net) provides cross-paris personal transport. At the Eurostar arrivals gates, an English-speaking guide will meet you with his vehicle directly in front of the train station.

It is the fastest and shorter itinerary, but to prevent the long stairs, leave the Gare du Nord and cross the street into Boulevard de Denain just in front of you, turn off on your right into Boulevard de Magenta, then turn off on your right into Rue du 8 May 1945.

Both the Gare du Nord and the Gare de Lyon have an escalator (and/or elevator) between the station hall, the RER hall and the RER platform, which makes it relatively simple with baggage or prams. Tip: If you have enough spare in the Gare de Lyon for a snack, cup of tea or drink, try the renowned Train Bleu dining room in the central hall.

Maybe 90 mins if you're taking the last platoon of the morning or a long-distance sleeping platoon that you can't miss. Arrived at the Est gate, only 10 walking mins to Paris Nord, from where the Eurostar starts.....

Ever since the opening of the new UK high-speed line in 2007, around 90% of Eurostars normally reach their destination within 15 mins of the announced arrival date, but it is not uncommon for Channel Tunnel issues to slow down a Channel Tunnel-Eurostar by an hour.
