From Gare St. Lazare to Gare Du Nord w/ luggage?

Another one of my many questions. Only 40 day til our departure to France.

My wife & I will be arriving @ 1200 weekday at Gare St. Lazare. We'll have to get over to Gare du Nord for a 1500 Eurostar train. We'll be bringing luggage along with us.

I'm leaning towards taking the taxi, rather than taking the RER. My wife wants the least stressful way.

Opinions/suggestions appreciated.

Merci,
JM

I think you've answered your own question. Just make sure the cab is in the official taxi queue.

IMO the least stressful way, with baggage, is taxi.

TY for the confirmation on taking the taxi.

One last question ...

When leaving GSL, is it easy to find the 'official' taxi queue? (I'd imagine there are signs directing you to it.)

Again, TY
JM

Or a contrary opinion, I'd be on the RER unless the luggage is silly.

Don't dawdle. Be in the Eurostar check in queue at least an hour ahead of departure, a bit earlier if you can make it.

Presumably you will have a bite for lunch on arrival?
