Transport in the heart of Paris

Metro Paris

Paris has a substantial metro network. You can purchase a single metro ticket, a day ticket, or a multi-day ticket.

A single metro ticket costs around 2,10 euros and is good for 90 minutes.

If you wish to ride the Paris metro multiple times a day, then it may be more cost-effective to purchase a day ticket, which is known as Mobilis. A day ticket allows you to travel indefinitely through Paris for one day. The price of a day ticket is based on the number of zones you select.

If you wish to ride the Paris metro for several days, then you can consider purchasing a tourist ticket, which is known as Paris Visite Travel. A tourist ticket also entitles you to slight reductions at the cash registers of several well-known Paris sights. This discount is only valid if you purchase your entry tickets on the spot.

Please keep an eye out for pickpockets, particularly while riding the metro, where pickpockets strike regularly.
