There are few trips more magical than a visit to Disneyland, and thankfully, when you land at Orly Airport, you have four available transport options to help get you there: private transfer, taxi, bus, or train.

If you take an Orly Airport taxi on arrival or a pre-booked private transfer, it’ll take around 45 minutes to cover the 50 kilometers from Orly Airport to Disneyland. Both options offer the convenience of a direct and door-to-door journey, with additional benefits such as guaranteed on-time pickups and travel assistance when you opt for a Paris Airport transfer.

The Magical shuttle bus is a more affordable option for solo travelers or small groups; the ride takes around 1 hour, and you’ll get to experience that special Disney touch from the moment you board.

Finally, you can take the train. This is the cheapest way to travel, although it does require transferring from the metro to the commuter rail, so it might not be everyone’s cup of tea. Expect this option to take 1 hour without wait or transfer times.

Welcome Pickups offers meet and greet services and a friendly introduction to Paris at the same price as a regular taxi. Click here to see the cost.

How to get from Orly Airport to Disneyland Paris by taxi

If you haven’t booked a ride in advance, an Orly Airport taxi is the best way to travel from Orly Airport to Disneyland Paris, as the service is door-to-door. The distance between the two locations is around 45 kilometers, so the journey should take approximately 45 minutes, depending on traffic.

Rides are metered, and standard taxis can seat 4 passengers, or 9 if you take a minivan.

Taxis at Orly Airport are available 24/7.

Where can I catch a taxi from at Orly Airport?

The taxi rank is located outside the Arrivals Hall of each terminal at Orly Airport. Look out for a line of vehicles with illuminated rooftop signs. If you spot a taxi without one of these, avoid it, as this means it’s probably unlicensed.

Convenience

Taking a taxi is far more convenient than your public transport options from Orly Airport. With a private vehicle, it’s the perfect option after a long flight, especially when you’re eager to get to the resort to meet Mickey and his friends.

The downsides are waiting for an available cab, carrying your luggage to the curb, and uncertainty about taxi pricing until it comes time to pay.

Editor’s Note

Taxis are the best option for travelers who haven't booked a ride in advance.

Useful Tips

Drivers at Orly Airport aren’t required to accept credit or debit cards, so it’s best to have some cash handy just in case. If you’re unsure what payment method they accept, ask the driver or look out for the payment sign in the back window.

The signs of the roof of the taxi indicate if the vehicle is vacant. Look out for an illuminated green sign, as this means the taxi is free to pick up passengers. An illuminated red sign means the taxi is already on a job.

Always walk to the official taxi rank, as it’s illegal for taxis to pick up passengers from the street within 50 metres of a taxi rank.

Convenience

While the Magical Shuttle bus is air-conditioned, it gets very busy during high season, and things can get crowded. Unfortunately, this means sitting with family members is not always guaranteed. Plus, the wait time is typically 1 hour, so it’s not the most convenient option, especially if you have luggage you can’t walk away from or kids to keep entertained.
