Each line took us about 2 hours to get through (in April) and then once you got inside you couldn't even move because of the sea of stinking people. I had more fun on the RER ride there and back.

If I were to do it again, I would go to Fontaine Bleu for a day trip and bring my bouldering gear.
We just wandered the grounds/gardens because they line was ######ed and the thing was half under construction. It was more of a train riding day than anything for us too.
