Hello! We're visiting Versailles in April (on a Wednesday). I've read that the RER C had damage due to flooding and has been closed for work. Is that still happening, or is it safe to plan on taking the RER C to Versailles?
We're staying in Le Marais and our closest metro stop is Saint-Paul (Rue Saint-Antoine, 75004 Paris, France). I know that station isn't one that has RER so we need to get to one that does. I'm confused about the directions on the Boujour RATP app, though. It says:
Saint-Paul (Le Marais) -> La Defense (Grande Arche)
Chatelet (1 min connecting time)
Chatelet -> Bagneux - Lucie Aubrac
Saint-Michel (2 min connecting time)
Saint-Michel Notre-Dame -> Gare de Versailles Chateau - Rive Gauche
What are the Chatelet & Saint-Michel steps? Do I get off at La Defense and then walk to a different station (Chatelet)? I just want to make sure this is the easiest way for us to get there so we don't miss our tour time slot. Thank you! Sincerely, a sad American who doesn't have trains in their city.
Oh, one more question - If I buy the Navigo weekly pass will it cover all of these trains? I don't care that it's $30, I'd rather pay that and not worry about validating or buying multiple tickets. Thanks!
