What is the best way to get from CDG to Gare Montparnasse that doesn't involve the Metro or buses? We had a bad experience on the Metro on our last trip when we had our suitcases, etc, with us and were obviously tourists.
Thank you,
Jerry

Take a taxi? It should cost between 60-80€ according to Rome2Rio. Be sure you follow the signs to the terminal to the official Taxi stand.

We are planning on taking the RER from CDG to Denfert-Rochereau enroute to Gare Montparnasse. Taxi or walking will get you from there to Montparnasse although you could take a short Metro ride on Ligne 4 or 6. You could also book a private transfer or taxi all the way from CDG, as others have suggested but traffic is a factor if you have a train to catch!

Another example of why google and crappy sites like Rome to Rio are not to be relied on -- travel from CDG by taxi is not 'about this or that' or 'between this and that' -- it is a fixed fare and has been for a very long time.
