Really need some help pls

[keely21]

First timer here and I'm so confused as to where I should get the eurostar to. I am staying in the val de europe area. I want to book eurostar now but unsure if I should get it to lille europe or gard du nord. There are 7 of us travelling so I want the cheapest option really. Eurostar to lille is working out around £150 cheaper but then how do I get to val de europe and is that likely to bump up the cost considerably? I've seen I can get a train from lille flandres quite cheap but how far is that from lille europe and what train do I get etc pls. It's all so confusing. Am I better going to gard du nord even if it's more expensive or will it work out cheaper in the long run? Anyone who's stayed in the val de europe area what did you do?

I haven’t done this journey or used Eurostar, but does google maps help? Put St Pancras station as your starting point and wherever you are staying in Val d’Europe as your end point and select public transport. It will then show you a number of options which you can look at in more detail to see which works best. It doesn’t give prices but it might help you get your head around which way you’d prefer, ease of changes, etc

Lille Flandres is ten minutes walk down a straight road from Lille Europe. There are videos on YouTube showing the walk.

Any train to Marne la Vallee will be fine. Some go from Lille Europe and some go from Lille Flandres.

Gare du Nord tends to have more trains and they are often cheaper overall. There was a recent offer for £35 each way, we are going on those soon.

From Gare du Nord to Marne la Vallee takes 45 minutes on the RER trains which cost 5 Euros each.

One thing to consider - if you go to Gare du Nord and take the RER, you can get off at Val d’Europe which is one stop before Disney.

If you go Lille to Marne la Vallee you would need to then get the RER one stop to Val d’Europe.
