    Getting TO/AROUND: If you're staying in Paris for a week or more...even if you are staying there for less than a week but will be using a lot of the metro..then the Carte Orange will be great for you.

    You get to choose the time you want it for, a week or a month, and the zones (of Paris) that you would need it for.

    Anyone can purchase this ticket from Paris. However, you must have a passport sized photo to attach to the pass.

    The weekly pass is only valid from Monday to Sunday...So, if you arrive on a Wednesday, you'd want to weigh your options (it will only be valid up to Sunday of that week).

    The Carte Orange pass will provide you with unlimited rides on the RATP. In 2004, the price of a weekly zone (1-2 ) Carte Orange was for 14.5 euros.

     I already dine in all star restaurants here in Paris so I can guarantee and definately recommend Fouquet's restaurant. The food here is amazing delicious and the service is great . Did you dine on the restaurant or in the Brasserie ?

     I'm going to Paris again next month, so these tips were a good read.
