I went with my 5 and 3 year olds in half term week (February 2009) and we walked from terminal 2B to the TGV train station. The walk was easy and took about 15mins. Collected our pre booked tickets from the right hand of the ticket office and then waited to find out the platform number. They only give this 20 mins before departure. Used the lifts. There is a l.e.d. display of the train carriages and where they will be stopping on the platform, which is useful so you are not making a mad dash at the end. The actual train journey is only ten minutes, the first stop, and arrives at the entrance to the disney parks. Also right next to the hotel bus stops. Each hotel bus stop is named. I didn't pay for a ticket for my 3 year old so one adult and one child ticket cost me £46 pounds return. I used www.raileurope.co.uk to book. On the last day I put our luggage in left luggage lockers (9.50 euros) at the station so we did not need to return to the hotel from the park. All very easy even on my own.

Thanks this is just what I am looking for. I will be travelling from Charles de Gaulle 2b to disney next month. My kids are the same age as yours but when I have tried booking via www.raileurope.co.uk it doesn't ask the kids ages, so how did you manage to have a free trip for the 3 year old?

Hi there, Eurodisney experts

I was about to book via the official Eurodisney site when I decided to hunt around and found it considerably cheaper at £350. Disney site was £670 even with the 40% off on hotel. Here's the package:

2 adults, 2 kids - 1 infant on lap, 1 toddler in seat on Eurostar
Midweek travel - 3 days, 2 nights Cheyenne resort (meet and greet was #1 criteria for hotel) incl breakfast
ticket passes for all 3 days

Is this a good deal?
What kind of breakfast is provided, does anyone know?

The deal was with expedia. It came up to £377.04 and I deducted the 7.5% cashback which I got from topcashback.co.uk

Another edit: Correction - topcashback did not give me 7.5% but 3.5%. I guess it gave the package rate rather than the hotel rate. In any case, still a cracking deal at approx £364.

Thats a brillaint deal:T . When are you going? Can I also ask where you booked that?

The breakfast will consist of cheese, cold meat (ham, salami etc), yougurt, bread, rolls, spread etc. I stayed at the Cheyenne a few years ago and loved it. Much better than the Santa Fe!

Yes that is a great deal, did you add the transportation option on the Disney site? Usually for the accomodation Disney is cheaper, but they do seem to be much more expensive if you include transport.

I have not stayed at Cheyenne, so can't comment on the hotel.

Breakfast will be as Caroline_John posted

From expedia. I've edited my original post. Thanks for the info. I'm getting excited now. Can't wait to see little one's face when she meets Mickey. She is crazy about the programme.

Yes I did add that option and found it way too expensive. The cost without the transportation (approx £440) was higher than the expedia deal which included transportation!

Hi, this may sound stupid, but did you include the park tickets? I just went on there and looked at the Santa Fe, and got a good price of 840 with the eurostar (2 adults, teenager and toddler) but noticed on the booking page that it did not include park tickets. Selecting that took it to 1100 for a 4 night stay.
