Hello

I%26#39;ve looked on the RATP website and I%26#39;ve seen prices for Paris Visite and Carnet tickets listed as:

Paris Visite Adult 2-day (zones 1-3): €13.70

Carnet: €10.90

The problem is that the website says these prices are valid from 2004. Are these prices still current?

Thanks.

Sounds right for the carnet .

|||

The carnet price is current. I%26#39;m not sure where you are finding the PV price, but it should be 13€95.

|||

I recommend the Carnet, one does usually not take the metro more than 2 or three times a day!

|||

Incidentally, a one-day Zone 1-2 Mobilis pass costs 5€50, or 11€ for two days. Less expensive than the PV, unless you plan to use any of the %26quot;fringe benefits%26quot; that come with the PV.

|||

And I agree with Kasthor. One walks in Paris!

|||

exactement!

Irish- what%26#39;s this Mobilis pass and where do you buy it? (will be handy for next time!)

|||

Thanks for all the responses. Like Steve I%26#39;m interested in finding out more about the Mobilis. Does it work just like Paris Visite?

You can get a Mobilis pass at any full-service window at the Métro stations. You can get them for various numbers of zones, but for nearly any tourist, 2 zones will be enough (doesn%26#39;t allow for travel to airports, Versailles, Disney). They allow unlimited use of métro, bus and funiculaire for a full day. You can buy all you need at one time, because the expiration countdown doesn%26#39;t start until the first time you put it in a turnstile. You must put them in the Métro turnstiles, but NEVER in the bus turnstiles (just show them to the bus driver).

Mobilis can come in handy if you%26#39;re planning on using a Navigo or Carte Orange, but are arriving at an inconvenient time. We usually arrive on Friday, for example. If needed, we each buy two Mobilis passes for use on Saturday and Sunday, and then use our Navigo for the following week.
