You can get a metro map at Gare du Nord at the metro station. Follow the signs. As well, on the main concourse there is an information booth where you can also get a map, tickets & info on how to get to where you need to go.

Take metro line 5 from Gare du Nord to Republique. Then take either metro line 3 or 11 to Arts et Metiers.
There should be minivan taxis in the ranks at Gare du Nord and they will accommodate all five of you.
Edit: I originally made a typo which I have now corrected. Metro line 5 (not 4) goes from Gare du Nord to Republique. Since we're on the subject of typos, Steve made one in the post following this one. The correct URL for the Paris transportation site is www.ratp.fr.

Thanks so much for the plan Tim. I needed to know what to do when we arrived. I appreciate the other info as well since we will be making use of metro quite a bit. This website is awesome - the people that frequent it that is. I'm in Germany asking for help in France asap and got it!
