CDG Airport to Fontainebleau Journey Overview
Fontainebleau lies to the southeast of Paris and is famous for the Château de Fontainebleau, the forest surrounding it, and its more tranquil country setting.
You will be taken directly from Charles de Gaulle Airport to the address you have selected in Fontainebleau by a private transfer, with no need to change stations, purchase extra tickets, or make any unnecessary stops on the way.
Drivers usually take the A104 and A6 motorways, depending on the road conditions, since this route is generally the most efficient one as it means avoiding central Paris.
There is another route which goes nearer to Paris before heading south; it is useful in the event that motorway conditions change, but it is generally slower during weekday rush hours.
The drivers responsible for the Royal Transfer keep an eye on the present traffic conditions and make changes to the route if needed.
Distance from CDG to Fontainebleau
The distance you have to drive from Charles de Gaulle Airport to Fontainebleau is about 85 to 95 kilometres, depending on the route you take.
| Route | Approximate Distance | Typical Conditions |
|---|
| CDG via the A104 and A6 | 85 km | Usually the fastest and most direct route |
| Route via Paris | 95 km | More vulnerable to congestion around the city |
| Alternative southern route | 90 km | May be used when motorway traffic is disrupted |
The need to alter routes can be caused by roadworks, accidents, holiday traffic, and large events.
Travel Time from CDG Airport to Fontainebleau
The average time taken to drive is about one hour fifteen minutes to one hour forty-five minutes.
The figure given here relates to the time taken to travel by road after you have met your driver; it does not cover the time needed for passport control, baggage collection or the time it takes to walk from the aircraft to the arrivals hall.
| Route | Peak Hours | Off-Peak | Late Night | Early Morning |
|---|
| A104 and A6 | 1 hr 45 min | 1 hr 20 min | 1 hr 10 min | 1 hr 15 min |
| Via Paris | 2 hrs | 1 hr 35 min | 1 hr 20 min | 1 hr 30 min |
| Alternative southern route | 1 hr 50 min | 1 hr 25 min | 1 hr 15 min | 1 hr 20 min |
The journey can be lengthened by morning and evening commuter traffic at the airport exits, on the Paris motorways, and at the A6, as well as because of rain, roadworks, school holidays, and travel on weekends.
Transfers made late at night and in the early morning are usually quicker since there are less vehicles on the road.

Other Ways to Travel from CDG to Fontainebleau
Train
Although taking the train may be cheaper than arranging a private transfer, the trip usually requires changes and involves getting your luggage through the stations.
It would be suitable for individual travellers or people who know the Paris transport system and are not travelling with a lot of luggage.
Bus
Bus travel is generally one of the more inexpensive ways to go. The problem is that the schedules can be limited and the total journey time can be much longer.
You might also have to use a different kind of transport for the journey between the last bus stop and your Fontainebleau address.
Airport taxi
Taxis can be found at Charles de Gaulle Airport both during the day and at night. Although they offer direct transportation, the price will depend on the route and traffic conditions.
Uber and other ride-hailing services
Hailing by app is convenient as long as there are drivers available, since prices and the time you have to wait can vary during busy periods, in bad weather, or when there is a high demand at airport arrival times.
