Tips
It's best to come on a weekday, avoiding public holidays and long weekends, to escape the crowds. The park offers "Parc Astérix weekend" packages at the "Les Trois Hiboux" hotel to extend the adventure. The Rapidus pass (20 euros) grants priority access to several attractions, helping you avoid long lines. For 7 euros, the kennel at car park No. 6 will look after your pet while you visit. The Malin service lets you drop off your shopping-bag purchases and pick them up at the exit desk from 4:30pm onward. Be sure to book ahead at one of the park's 6 themed restaurants for lunch, or make use of the picnic areas near the bus car parks.
How to get there
The park is located 35 km north of Paris (Porte La Chapelle) and can be reached by car in about 30 minutes via the A1 toward Lille. You can also opt for private transport, or the buses and shuttles arranged specifically from CDG Roissy Airport terminals T1 or T3 at the "Parcs et Loisirs" desk.
