On a Friday at around 1pm, I will need to go from Eiffel Tower to CDG.
Will I get there faster by Rail or by Taxi? (also, what is an estimate of cost by taxi?)
Thanks</font>
1/ One simple way to go there is to
Take the RER and have the connection at SAINt-MICHEL Notre-DAME,
Take the RER route A up to Chmpa de mars - Tour Eiffel,
you are 2 minutes walking from the tower.
Time approx 45 minutes, cost around 6 euros
2/ You can take the Air France Bus direction INVALIDES, and walk from Invalides to the Tower, that's less than 15 minutes waking, either alog the river, nice in spring, or through the streets, which is rather nice too.
I would say same time, aroud 7,5 euros, but avoid if traffic congested (rush hours)
3/ Cab, I would expect around 45 euros, and 40 minutes to more than 1 hour depending on time of the day.
