Arriving in Paris: stressful and expensive

The first hours after landing are when it is easiest to get scammed.

1

Confusing transport

RER, bus, taxi, ride-hailing: several options, different prices, scattered information that is rarely in the traveller's language.

2

Targeted scams

Fake taxis, “helpers” at ticket machines, pickpockets: a traveller who has just landed is an easy target.

3

Unpredictable budget

Hard to know what a ride, a pass or a week in Paris really costs.

Everything you need to know from the moment you land

Price

The right price, straight away

The official taxi flat fare for your airport and the bank of your destination: you know what you should pay before you even get in.

Transport

All the options on one page

RER B, metro 14, bus 9517, Noctilien, taxi and ride-hailing: duration, price, timetables, where to catch them and what to do if something goes wrong.

Safety

The traps to know about

Fake taxis, help at ticket machines, pickpockets, tourist-trap restaurants: the classic scams, with the right reflexes.

Tickets

The right ticket

Navigo Easy, airport ticket, Paris Visite: what to buy, and a comparison tool to see whether a pass is worth it.

Also: a checklist for your first hours, accessibility for people with reduced mobility and emergency numbers.
