Trifter

Transportation in Paris is especially based on his famous subway, RER (suburban trains), bus and tram in some areas.
The Metro: Paris city circulates and reaches some areas in zone two (next ring around Paris city, see below)
The RER: the Spanish equivalent of the neighborhood. A Paris with the periphery, but within the city operates like a metro. Outside Paris has a different pricing to the subway.

Paris is located in the region of Ile de France, which would be something like the Autonomous Community of Madrid but larger and divided into about eight tiny provinces. Paris city itself occupies one of the provinces or départements, which is as they are called here. However, the region is divided into six concentric rings or “zones”, where the inner Paris core or zone 1.

The meter only works in Area 1 (Paris city) and arrives at a timely season in Zone 2. For other areas we have the RER and buses, besides their own transport to the neighboring towns of Paris.

Getting to Paris from the airports
Paris has two airports: Charles de Gaulle or CDG, north of Paris in the transport zone 5, and then there’s the Orly (ORY), which is the south of the city, in Zone 4.
If you want to come to Paris and you have the option to choose airport Orly encojáis I recommend that for the following reasons:

• It is closer to Paris
• Transport will be cheaper than from CDG
• It is a smaller airport, which will be easier to move around.

Arriving in Paris from CDG can be an ordeal if you’re loaded with lots of luggage, as happened to me. Inside the airport itself you have to walk long distances to get out, because the terminals are enormous. There is a kind of tram / shuttle links the terminals, either to enter or exit the airport. A taxi from the airport to Paris you can go for a pretty penny (€ 50 min) In this page you

. a guide to prices, the cheapest is 47 euros: http://www.taxi-paris.net/pgeCDGinfos.htmlY the problem is not only about money. If you decide to get off to Paris on the RER B (the best option available), once you get there and have to change to another metro line RER or prepare to pay your bags upstairs and down, especially if the exchange is at the Chatelet station, where they cross the main lines of the Paris metro and RER. Not only the station is great because there are two stations in one (Chatelet, Chatelet-Les Halles), but half of the accesses do not consist of escalators and / or elevator for disabled people with strollers or carrying luggage. This situation is well in 90% of the Paris subway lines, only line 14 St Lazare-Olympiades is prepared for people with mobility problems, but it is the most modern. I tell you from experience that torture was a real fall from CDG to Paris carrying a bag of 20 kilos, raising and lowering it down the stairs from the subway. I spent three days with pain all over his body, and one of my classmates even broke the wheels of the suitcase halfway, we gave the trot.
I therefore recommend taking the bus to get to their destination, as much as possible, takes longer, but is much more comfortable climbing a small slope to climb endless flights of stairs with suitcase in tow.

There is also the intermediate possibility, more comfortable than the subway and cheaper than a taxi, you take the Air France buses that take you from the airport to Paris and back. The round trip cost 14 €, round trip is 22 €. The buses leave from various points of the city like railway stations, which is easy to reach by metro. On this website you can see the routes and schedules are (usually spend every half hour or so): http://www.airfrance.com/double6/passage3.nsf/ (LookupPublishedWeb) / en-OUTC-çarşaf? OpenDocumentPara reach from Orly there are several options: you can take the Orlybus, which runs several stops in Paris and ends his journey at Denfert Rochereau (where the catacombs) Orlyval, which is a kind of bullet train linking the airport with the RER stop Antony B; and the various bus lines that go up there.

If you travel with Ryanair

There is also the option of traveling to Paris Beauvais route if you travel with Ryanair. Beauvais is a town about 80 km from Paris. To get to Paris from there the most comfortable option is to take bus or navette, which costs 13 euros each way, takes about an hour and fifteen minutes and leaves you in Paris at the metro stop Porte Maillot, where there is also the Palais de Congrès. In this website you can check schedules and buy tickets online:

Moving around Paris == ==
You can move around the city by metro, tram, bus and RER. By car you will pay quite expensive because virtually all sites (also expensive) and in tourist areas can not park.

Prices

The single ticket costs € 1,50, only worthwhile if you do a trip on time. In the underground can be bought in vending machines, where you can pay with coins or cards (tickets not accepted) or in the window (less desirable option because there is usually a lot queue times). It is best to buy fertilizer, whose price will vary depending on the areas it covers or time.
• If you are lucky enough to get a Monday or Sunday night what you will do better is the “Carte Orange hebdomadaire” or what is the same, the weekly payment. It is worth 16 € for zones 1 and 2 and you can do all you want to travel by subway, bus, tram, RER and the Montmartre funicular. The task is valid only from Monday to Sunday, ie that they valid from Thursday to Thursday to give an example.
• All children under 26 years (ie up to 25) have called “Ticket Jeune. Each ticket costs around three euros and used to pick and you travel all day on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.
• The ticket “Paris Visite” is designed for tourists. There are 1, 2, 3 and 5 days and cost between € 8.50 and € 27.50 for adults. For children cost less.
Traveling by bus

The metro is fast and convenient way of getting around the city, but in my opinion for anyone who comes in is more interesting tourist plan to travel by bus because at least you can appreciate the city and landscape. It’s much nicer to do in the subway tunnels. However, we must weigh the advantages and disadvantages: Advantages
• Appreciate the landscape.
• Traveling more relaxed
• Drivers are usually friendly and polite. Do not forget to say “bonjour” to enter the vehicle.
• With no bus zones, even if you’re in zone 1 through 4 pay normal ticket (1.50 €).

Disadvantages
• The frequency of crossing some lines is less than the subway.
• Tickets purchased on the bus do not allow matches or can be used on the subway (but vice versa)
• The traffic can lengthen the journey much longer than expected.
• It is more uncomfortable than the subway in case of agglomeration.
How to calculate your itinerary

The website of the Paris transport company is valuable, in fact I have in my bookmarks bar of my browser because I use it almost daily. The web is www.ratp.fr and can be viewed in Spanish There is a very useful option called Route, which marks your place or station of departure and arrival and indicates the route that suits you, as you want the most fast, which implies less correlation, etc.. You can also find an interactive map of the metro lines, RER and bus on this link: http://www.ratp.info/orienter/cv/carteparis.php

Traveling at night

The meter is normally finish about 1:15 pm, regular bus a bit earlier. But recently have changed the times and on Fridays, Saturdays and eve of holidays there is underground until 2:15, for an hour more. However these times vary depending on the line, so you’d better learn before you get thrown in the calle.La best option to move at night are the buses Noctilien, something like the Paris búhobuses. There are several lines, with different stops depending on the range, although there are several hot spots in Paris where they stop the main lines, such as train stations or Châtelet. It is best to learn on the website of the RATP and Noctilien site:
http://www.noctilien.fr/Noctilien/pages/es/index.html
There are also n night lines between Paris and the airports.

Travel around Noctilien is safe but if you’re a woman and I do not recommend going alone. At that time of night there is usually very rare, especially people drunk. Especially beware if you go to catch the bus at Chatelet, for that area there are sometimes drug addicts, vagrants and people painful, although there are security officers and the place is usually crowded, but you have to go carefully through case. I once went with three people and had a scare when a drug addict with a pint and a terrifying bloodshot eye began to give us the rod. And things did not go beyond a small incident but I spent quite scary.

Disadvantages Subway
• Difficult access for people with mobility problems. There is only one line, the 14, which is prepared in its entirety with lifts and escalators at all stations.
• Compared with other European cities underground, often quite dirty on the lines and stations. I have come to see a man urinating on the steps of a season … Anyway many stations currently being refurbished.
• Odors. At some stations that smell is not just a French perfume …
• Locos. In Paris there are many homeless and mentally ill people who spend their lives stuck in the subway. You must be very careful with these people: nothing to look them in the face or looking at them wrong. If you approach it is best to avoid you problems go unnoticed and escape them discreetly so as not to realize,. Someone I know once the site was changed when a smelly tramp sat beside him and the type began to insult her and threaten her in the middle of the wagon.
Conclusion

Paris has one of the densest metro networks in the world and better planned, which means that wherever you are the nearest underground station will never be more than ten minutes walk. Because taxis are expensive and traffic is horrible, I think it is the most convenient way of getting around the city.
I hope my opinion helped.
