I've used Uber many times, but only in the US. I find it very
convenient, generally much more so than taxis. If you can't help me
with Uber, perhaps someone else here can.

Anyone here who can provide information about Uber in Paris,
especially at CDG airport?



https://www.uber.com/airports/cdg/

At some airports, Uber isn't allowed to pick up at curbside. At CDG it
appears they're allowed to.

You can enter your origin (CDG) and destination near some famous
landmark, such as the Opera or Hotel de Ville on the front page of
uber.com and it will come up with estimates.

You want to try different times, especially the time you anticipate it
will be when you clear immigration and get all your luggage.



Thank you very much. I just did that and it came up with €50-60. I was
hoping for a more precise estimate, but that's better than nothing.

How does that €50-60 compare with taking a taxi? Can you guess about
how much a taxi would cost?
