Explorers Hotel is one of the most popular family bases just outside Disneyland Paris, set in Magny-le-Hongre only minutes from the resort gates. With its pirate ship pool, themed rooms and free park shuttle, it is built for families — and the smoothest way to start the trip is a private transfer that takes you from your arrival airport straight to the hotel door without changes or queues.
This guide covers how to reach Explorers Hotel from all three Paris airports — Charles de Gaulle, Orly and Beauvais — with realistic drive times, fixed fares and the family extras that make the journey easy with young children in tow.
Where is Explorers Hotel?
The hotel sits in Magny-le-Hongre, a short drive from the Disneyland Paris parks at Marne-la-Vallee. Although it is not a Disney-run hotel, it is one of the closest partner properties to the resort and runs its own complimentary shuttle to the gates. For a private transfer that means a single clean drop-off at reception, with your driver handling the luggage and the route while you settle the children.
From Charles de Gaulle (CDG)
CDG is the airport most international families fly into and the closest of the three to Explorers Hotel. The drive runs roughly 40 to 50 minutes depending on traffic, and our fixed fare starts at 70 euros. Your driver tracks the flight, meets you in arrivals with a name board and walks you to the vehicle — no hunting for a rank after a long flight. For more detail on this route see our CDG to Disneyland Paris taxi page.
From Orly and Beauvais
Orly sits to the south of Paris, so the transfer typically runs a little longer than CDG with a fixed fare from 90 euros. Beauvais is the outlier at around 150 kilometres and roughly one hour fifteen minutes north of the resort, which is why that route is priced on request rather than at a standard rate. Whichever airport you land at, the principle is the same: one fixed price agreed up front, a comfortable minivan if you need it, and a driver who meets you on arrival.

Why families choose a private transfer
Public transport to the resort works, but with tired children, suitcases and pushchairs it can be hard work. A private car turns the airport-to-hotel leg into a single relaxed ride: free child and booster seats fitted before pickup, room for the whole party and the luggage, flight tracking so a delay does not leave you stranded, and a fixed fare so there is no meter ticking in traffic. Larger groups can spread the cost over a minivan seating seven to eight.
What is included
Every Explorers Hotel transfer includes meet and greet at the airport, flight monitoring, door-to-door service to the hotel entrance, free child seats and an English-speaking driver. We operate 24/7, so early flights and late landings are both covered. If you are travelling as a bigger party, our 8-passenger Disney transfer keeps everyone together in one vehicle for the same simple fixed price.
