The Complete Guide to Paris Airport Transfers

By Private Drive

Arriving in Paris: What to Expect

Paris is served by two major international airports: Charles de Gaulle (CDG) and Orly (ORY). Whether you're visiting for business or leisure, the journey from the airport to the city centre sets the tone for your entire trip.

Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG)

Located approximately 25 km northeast of Paris, CDG is the largest airport in France. A private transfer from CDG to central Paris typically takes 45–60 minutes depending on traffic conditions.

Terminal Navigation

CDG has three terminals. Your chauffeur will meet you directly at the arrivals hall with a name board, ensuring a seamless pickup regardless of which terminal you land at.

Orly Airport (ORY)

Situated 13 km south of Paris, Orly is closer to the city centre. Transfer times average 30–45 minutes. The airport has been recently renovated, offering modern facilities and clear signage.

Unlike taxis or ride-sharing services, a private chauffeur offers a guaranteed fixed price, luxury vehicles, and a professional driver who monitors your flight status in real time.

  • Fixed pricing with no surge charges
