Is It Worthwhile?
The Paris Visite is quite expensive and it is only worth purchasing if you’re staying in Paris only for a couple of days, going to Disneyland, or if you would like to get to the airport by public transport. If this is your case, then we recommend purchasing the Paris Visite zones 1-5.
The Passe Navigo is a cheaper option if you’re staying in Paris for over three days.
Where to purchase the Paris Visite?
The Paris Visite travel card can be purchased at any Metro or RER station. It can also be acquired in the airports and tourist information points in the city.
