My wife and I are spending 5 weeks in Paris in October. We did the same in Bordeaux a couple of years ago and they had a pass for $35/month for bus or tram. Is there a pass like that in Paris for bus and subways? I don't think they have a tram.
Thanks for your help.
There is a monthly pass you can put on a Navigo Decouverte card ( which costs 5 Euro and is good for 10 years.) The monthly pass is about 85 Euros -- and covers all public transport, trams, buses, metro and RER local trains in the ile de France i.e. all 5 zones in the Paris area. It runs the calendar month so if you are there for a few days in September or November, you will need other tickets or passes for those times.
The card can be bought at any metro and you will need head shots 25/30mm -- you attach the picture and print your name before sealing the card. You can load weeky or monthly passes and day passes on the card. for individual. metro or RER tickets you need a different product.
Paris By Train offers a lot of good info.

I have used my Navigo-D card during four separate visits since 2014. I'll have to purchase a new card when I return in 2024 or 2025.
Enjoy your trip.
And we do have trams ! (Although admittedly they probably aren't on routes that tourists will be taking)
On one of our visits we went on the trams as we wanted to explore some of the neighbourhoods further out. When we travel we often take a bus or tram route to its end point and back to see more of the regular neighbourhoods of a city.
