Using local transport in France.
Local Transport
Paris has an excellent network of public transport operated by RATP
comprising buses, trams (in some suburbs), suburban trains, RER (suburban
trains that go underground through the centre) and the métro
(subway). Métro stations are located about a five minute walk
apart and the trains run around every two minutes.
Like many other cities, the Parisian transport network is divided into
a number of different zones. The price of your ticket will be reflected
by the zone you are travelling to. This zone system applies mainly to
the RER and suburban trains, all the métro stations can be reached
with a single ticket or a single zone travel pass even though some métro
lines extend as far as zone three. If you have to venture out into the
suburbs where there is a choice of métro, train or RER it works
out much cheaper to take the métro - this applies mainly to excursions
to La Defense, Château de Vincennes and St Denis.
