marko4ever25,

several choices.Eurostar runs into Gare d'Nor which is Paris Nord.

Taxi - but make sure they go to the proper taxi rank and not the rip-off merchants out the front. The taxi rank is at the side and there will be a queue with "stewards"(can't think of the right word at present)

Metro - really easy, dont even have to leave Gare d'nor. Buy a Carte Blanche (I think its called - memory bit fuddled!!) which is a bundle of tickets.The metro is really simple, we go regularly and use the Metro all the time for getting around.

Any bus/train/metro tickets can be bought at the station ticket office. Although if memory does serve me right i think the tickets I mentioned are valid on all the mentioned transport types.

Don't know when they are going, but if it is after we go 29th-31st July - next week then I will have some more-up-to-date answers

Almost there - it is called a 'carnet' and is a little book of 10 tickets for use on the metro, bus and some sections of the RER.

Take a look at this link and it will give you some idea of their options
