Plan notes
Useful context before you go
Paris is a world-class walking and transit city. To navigate efficiently on a budget, purchase a contactless carnet of Metro tickets (or a digital Navigo Easy pass) to move smoothly across the city's extensive underground network. Keep your validated transit ticket with you until exiting, as transfers between lines are covered under a single ride. For key landmarks like the Louvre and Eiffel Tower summit, book timed-entry tickets well in advance to avoid long queues. When venturing out on a long day trip to Mont Saint-Michel, wear sturdy walking shoes and catch the earliest regional train out of Paris to maximize your daylight at the tidal island.
