Attention travellers, watch this video! This series offers the most informative, most concise and personable resource for all things Paris. I just got back from visiting Paris & know 90%+ of this info, but still thoroughly enjoyed it. Merci!

My wife and I will be taking our dream vacation to Paris early next year. I have watched many of your videos as well as those of other YouTube creators, simply because we want every piece of information at our fingertips to have the vacation my deserves. These videos do not disappoint. Informative, clear, easy to understand, and, in my opinion, an invaluable resource. Thank you for these videos…oh, sorry. Merci.

Another thing to know about buying tickets for the Metro is that if you are using a credit card, you need to know the PIN for that card. I failed to bring the PIN last trip and was not carrying my debit card all the time, having been pickpocketed in the past (that time, I kept the cards together, and lost everything except for the one back-up card I had back at the apartment). Merci for this very useful information. Your work is appreciated.

Thanks for this video, I’m coming in March and I few so intimidated with the metro

[m.b.]

It was clear that everything would be more expensive during the Olympics, but that could be done with the tourists. Thanks for the video, it was interesting

Thank you for sharing!!
Book of 10 tickets for paris region Versailles still available for purchase? 10 paper tickets or only available for loading on Navigo card? Family of 4 adults and 2 kids planning visit Versailes in early June.

After a lot of research, we purchased the Decouverte card two years ago. We went to Disneyland, train from CDG, caught metros, trams, buses and the furnicular. We well and truly got our money’s worth, we are taking the card with us to Paris next month

My Wife and I will be in Paris(from South Africa🇿🇦) from 24 - 28 June. I think that the Navigo Decouverte will be perfect for us... Thanks for such an informative video. It helped me make the correct decision...

[jrsowash]

Thank you! We're bringing our five kids to Paris next month. Sounds like single T+ tickets are our best option as not all of them have phones.

[AnnAnn-mhyn]

I plan to buy a Decouverte ticket. Should I bring a paper photograph of myself from home? Or do I upload a photo from my phone? Or do the ticket machines have a camera? Merci. Enjoy your videos very much.

Easiest metro to use and the hardest to figure out the pricing...
Alain, FYI have noticed a few hotel prices coming down for this summer. Some 5 star hotels such as L' Hotel in the heart of Saint Germain having a 10% off for members... and yes I just booked a week there in June. 😉

Thank you very much, the video is very helpful! But I'm still a little confused and hope you respond.
My family (me, my wife and 3 year old girl) are going on a short trip to Paris in October. I will arrive at CDG airport in the morning and travel to the city center by RER. After that we only traveled by Metro or bus around the city center and planned to go to Montmartre. The next morning we needed to return to CDG airport. I don't know what type of ticket we need to buy to optimize costs. I also didn't see anyone mention tickets for 3-year-old children. Looking forward to receiving your feedback

[chrysanthibogiantzi]

Very nice and helpful video, merci!!
I would like information for transportation to Orly airport as well.

[louiscy]

The first few times I was in Paris, a single ticket only costed 1 euro.
Can't remember the price in Franc before the introduction of Euro.
But it was very reasonable then, now it's highway robbery.
The weekly or monthly pass was Carte' Orange.

[rainbowyeung]

Very informative video. Thank you. Our family of 4 will be in Paris for the Olympics from Aug 5 - 11. I was planning to buy the Navigo Découverte weekly pass. But you mentioned in your video that it will not be sold during the Olympics. Which transportation card should I buy? Thanks
