Métro: Using Metro
  • Tip Rating:
  • 'Mode': AROUND
    Category: Subway/Metro
    Getting TO/AROUND: The Metro systemin Paris is normaly opened since 5:30 till 1.00 at night (but be sure to check whether ur station closes at that time, cause this is the graphis for the most popular stations,but others do close at about 20:00-21:00)and is considered one of the best in the world. Don't worry about getting lost, cause on every station at the cass u can find a free map with all the lines where u can be able to find any stop u need.
    About the tickets, i would suggest buying "Carnet" it consistes of 10 tickets.Or if u'll be staying in Paris not less then a wekk and will be using Metro quit often, the best for you would be to but "Carte Ornage" which is valid from MOnday till Sunday for any Metro line, buses and RER in the Paris area.IMPORTANT! For buying the Carte Orange you would need a photo!!!!

    Getting TO/AROUND: Busses, hm...what can i say about it, I think in PAris Metro would be the most convinient transport to use.But buses if you choos bus, it is also nice, cause yu can see muc more of Paris from the windows, but the minus in buses, is that u can't change the rout with the same ticket as you can do in Metro.
