The department of Paris is situated on the north-bending arc of the river Seine, centrally located in the northern half of France.
Your Paris holiday rentals can be reached by road, along the E15 and E19 motorways down from the port of Calais or the E05 motorway from the port of Le Havre. The main airport serving Paris is Paris-Charles de Gaulle which is approximately 25km north of Paris itself. Alternatively Paris-Orly Airport, although not quite so large, is closer at only 15km south of Paris.
Holiday rentals in Paris can also be reached by the superb Eurostar train service. Terminals in the UK are available at London St. Pancras, Ashford International or Ebbsfleet International. The service runs daily from the UK stopping off at the excellent town of Lille and then on to the heart of Paris.
When in Paris there are numerous ways of easily getting around either by bus, taxi, and train or world famous Paris Metro system. As the city itself is quite compact much of it can also be covered on foot from your Paris holiday rentals.
