Getting Around

Paris is served by several airport-transfer options, and the best choice depends on where you land. From Charles de Gaulle Airport, travelers can use the RER B, while Metro Line 14 provides a direct connection between central Paris and Orly Airport. Taxis, airport buses, private transfers, and ride-hailing services are also available, with journey times and fares depending on the airport, destination, traffic, and time of day. Travelers arriving at Beauvais Airport should plan separately, as it is located much farther from central Paris and is primarily connected by dedicated shuttle services. Paris Aéroport - Public Transport

The Paris Metro is one of the fastest and most convenient ways to travel around the city. Its network now includes 16 lines and more than 300 stations, serving central neighborhoods and many surrounding areas. The RER is better suited to longer journeys across the Paris region, including destinations outside the city centre. Paris buses offer a more scenic alternative, with nearly 350 routes across the wider network, including around 61 routes within Paris and 48 night-bus routes. For current routes, timetables, and service updates, travelers should use the official RATP journey planner rather than rely on fixed operating assumptions. RATP Maps and Journey Planner

Paris’s ticketing system changed in 2026, so visitors should choose their ticket carefully. A Metro-Train-RER ticket is separate from a Bus-Tram ticket, and airport journeys require a dedicated Paris Region–Airports ticket. Tickets can be loaded onto a Navigo Easy pass or used through a compatible phone or smartwatch, while daily, weekly, and tourist passes may be worthwhile for visitors making several journeys. Taxis are widely available at official ranks, on the street, and through booking apps, while car rental is generally unnecessary within Paris but can be useful for day trips beyond the city.
