My mom and I will be flying into Paris very early in the morning next month and were wondering what is the best way to get from the airport to our Apartment? Is it best just to take a taxi (we don't speak very much French at all and are worried we won't say the right thing) or to book a car service ahead of time? Thank you!

I'm guessing you don't want to deal with public transportation, which is quite easy. But so is a taxi. Just make sure you go to the official taxi rank and you'll be directed to the first taxi available. It will have a "Taxi Parisien" sign on top. Have your apartment address written down and hand it to the driver. Don't worry, they deal with non-French speaking tourists all the time.

Yes, you are correct in that we were hoping to not have to deal with public transportation from the airport. Just want to put our bags in a car and get to the apartment as quickly as possible to get in a little rest after a long flight. We are planning to use public transportation while sightseeing in and around Paris, so that's good to know that it's easy to use!
Thanks for both of your pieces of advice!
