The Metro. If you're in central Paris, you can walk around for hours--if you go to the outer arrondisments, then you'll have to get on the Metro.
Or you could ride around in the small cars...

By car from Europe or fly to Charles-de-Gaulle Airport!
Don´t take your car, use the Metro! It will bring you everywhere! Driving in Paris is funny! It´s caotic most of the times....

TAKE THE METRO. But if you can find a bus it is much more open and great to city watch. Bus 82 is one that is good to see the Effiel Tower, Invalids, Garden Luxenburg.

	Métro: The Paris Métro Tip Rating:

Updated By CliffClaven on March 13, 2007

The Paris Métro has spread its tentacles since Line No 1 opened between Porte de Vincennes and Porte Maillot in 1900. With 15 lines, 199 km (124 miles) of track, 368 stations, 3500 carriages and six million passengers a day, it is easily one of the world's biggest and most efficient underground railway systems. A single ticket costs 1.40 euros, but it is cheaper to buy a 'carnet' (packet of ten tickets) for 10.90 euros. One of the delights of riding the Paris Métro is descending through an Art Nouveau entrance to the station below.

	Taxi! Tip Rating:

You don't need to have seen many films with Jean-Paul Belmondo or Jean Reno to realise that the French make Italian drivers seem like old ladies on their way to church. Stepping into a taxi in Paris is an experience akin to bungee-jumping over a shark-filled pool. Just shut your eyes, take the plunge and very soon - they don't hang about, you know - it'll be over. And if you think driving around the city is bad, just wait until you take a taxi to the airport and the driver finds some space to change lanes on the autoroute.

Surely the Metro!!! In the map, you can see the famous spots near the station. French drivers are quite notorious, so best way to moving around is Subway, definitely.

This is the metro (subway) tunnel entrance on the Ile de la Cité. The Metro is the best way to get around this large city, and it is reasonably priced: $14 for a week pass.

	Driving: PARKING, the unsoluble problem Tip Rating:

PARKING, the unsoluble problem.
Don't pick a car upon arrival in Paris. If you plan to spend a few days in Paris, only pick it on your last day because parking is so difficult.
Every other car in Paris is dinted, Parisian park either by sound or by impact. What better way to know you can't move further than a nice big 'punk'.Why not park sideway if you can!!!!

The metro and RER
You just don't need a car to get around Paris. The metro, bus and RER transit system is so extensive that you usually have 2-3 different ways to get from A to B. Very clean, very safe.

Traffic of L'etoile

by sabsi

The traffic is crazy and so is the parking!!

If you are coming by car - try and find a hotel with a cheap or free car park, otherwise you'll spend a fortune for parking!
