Preparing your trip: tickets and travel passes designed for you

Preparing your trip: tickets and travel passes designed for you

Paris Visite travel pass

If you stay in Paris for a few days, the Paris Visite travel pass provides unlimited travel for a specified number of days.

Depending on which zones you choose, the Paris Visite pass allows you to ride the metro, RER, Transilien suburban train network, tram, bus (except the Jetbus, Allobus, Roissy CDG, tourist bus routes and Air France buses), Orlyval, and the Montmartre funicular.

The Paris Visite pass allows you enjoy €100 worth of benefit from our 14 partners.

For example, you can benefit from 25% off the entrance fee for the Tour Montparnasse panoramic observatory and the Grévin Museum… a discounted price for the 2-day pass to Château de Versailles… and more!

the Paris Visite pass is valid for 1, 2, 3 or 5 consecutive days for a price ranging from €11.65 to €63.90 (half price for children). Purchase your Paris Visite travel pass from our ticket desks or automatic vending machines.

Understanding the zone system

Our fare system is based on concentric zones: zones 1-3 include downtown Paris and the closest urban areas, while zones 4 and 5 cover more distant areas, including Versailles and Disneyland Paris®.

Each ticket or travel pass (whether for a day, a week, or a month) has a certain number of zones within which it is valid.

Two exceptions are worth noting:

  • All Paris metro stations are accessible with a ticket or travel pass that covers only zones 1 and 2, even though some are located geographically in zone 3: for example, you can take the metro to La Défense Grande Arche (zone 3) with a t+ ticket. On the other hand, if you take the RER or a bus, you will need to purchase a ticket that specifies your destination.

  • Orlyval, the light rail line connection the Antony RER station and Orly Airport, has a specific fare.

The t+ ticket

If you only use public transport occasionaly,  with the t+ ticketn you can take a single one-way trip using the metro, RER (in zone 1), any Île-de-France region bus route (except Orlybus and Roissybus), tram and the Montmartre funicular. The ticket is not valid on RER and SNCF Transilien suburban train lines outside of Paris.

Purchase t+ tickets at our ticket desks and automatic vending machines, located in all our metro and RER stations, as well as at RATP-authorised retailers and in the food service bar of certain TGV train lines.
