    Getting TO/AROUND: If you are in Paris and travel to the main touristic attractions, you will then remain within the zone 1 and 2 limit of Paris metro. If you want a pass for just one day buy the pass called Mobilis, it is cheaper than the one-day-Paris Visite pass. If you are in Paris for longer, for a three-day or a five-day pass you only have the choice of Paris-Visite but for a week you can have like a true parisian a Carte Orange, ask for a card at the counter, stick a passport-sized picture of yourself and buy the one-week (from monday to sunday) or one month pass .Also a good tip so you don't stand out as tourists, is to write down the directions of the metro lines you want, then you don't have to open your large metro map in the metro, more practical and you will be less easily spotted as tourists by pickpockets
