Essential for crossing the city and seeing the sites…



The RATP, the company that runs Paris’ buses and metro system, has just released their new and improved map for tourists, free at all stations and also distributed in hotels.
One side has a large map of the metro system overlaid with the principal monuments and museums, making it even easier to find your way around the city.

On the other side though you’ll find even more great information:

- an RER map (cross between the metro and suburban train)
- a night bus map
- information about how to get to and from both of Paris’ airports
- over 15 different vouchers with reductions for the Arc de Triomphe, shopping at Galeries Lafayette, the Lido, the tour of the Opera, the Bateaux Parisiens tour on the Seine… great stuff!

The Travel Kit is in four languages, and you can download a free copy here. More information about how to get around the city here.
