Travel Tips
First of all, you will need to reserve tickets on the train, so go to http://www.tgv.com/ and reserve. When you arrive at Charles de Gaulle airport, go through everything you need to go through (customs, baggage claim etc.) follow the signs for CHARLES DE GAULLE TGV. When you get there, you will have to punch (composter in French) your ticket. This can be done at a little yellow machine. Board your train (the platform will be on the screens) . Journey time is 2 hours. Your train will stop once between Charles de Gaulle and Lyon at Eurodisney world.

Other Travel Tips
There is a TGV railway station at the Charles de Gaulle Airport, but it is at Terminals 2 (2A, 2B, 2B, 2C, 2E, 2F are all conncested to each other by foot) called AEROPORT CDG 2 TGV or ROISSY. From there a fast train (TGV) will lead you to Lyon Perrache or Lyon Part-Dieu (two stations in Lyon). In case you arrive at terminal 1 or 9 at CDG Airport, you have to get into the free airport bus shuttle which will take you to the terminal 2.

This is a link to book for your trip to Lyon http://www.voyages-sncf.com/dynamic/_svh...

Trains to Lyon are at Gare de Lyon LOL

So at CDG you take RER B toward Orly, stop at Chatelet Les Halles and take RER A To Marne la Valley (Disneyland) and stop at Gare de Lyon (the stop just after).

It is very easy in fact the RERs are just facing each other in Chatelet
I'm French
