Yes, you can buy passes at CDG that are good on the metro, RER, bus, trams, and the Montmartre funicular. There are several kinds and the best one depends upon what zones you'll be traveling in, what day of the week you'll arrive in Paris, and what day of the week you'll leave. What days will those be for you?

Gloria,

We used Golden Air per the attached post to Hotel Muguet.

Golden Air......after reading a few comments on this site I was a bit concerned that we did not hear back from them with the details of our reservation until the morning we left. However, when we arrived at CDG and picked up our luggage then called, they promply met us in 15 min at the designated spot. Upon our return, they were waiting for us in the Hotel lobby b4 our 7:30 departure time & had us at CDG in 60 minutes No problems at all, would use them again.

The two times we landed at CDG (03 & 06) we've used Airport Connection. Prompt, relieable, friendly service from and to CDG. Always an English speaking driver, very automatic.

The Roissy Bus, nicknamed the Opera bus because it disembarks its passengers across the street from the Opera Garnier on the Rue des Scribe (near the corner of the Rue Auber), is named after the town (Roissy) in which the Charles Des Gaulle airport is located. The Roissy Bus provides a transfer service from the airport to the ninth arrondissement in Paris.The one way ticket costs 8.50 Euro and is one of the better bargains in Paris these days.
You have four options for purchasing tickets for the bus: From the machine in terminal 2A near door 10 (gate A 10) - see photo to right.
At the ticket counter at in terminal 2D at Gate D 11.
On the bus from the driver.
If you have a Paris Visite valid for zones 1 to 5, you can use that.

About the Roissy Bus
From 6:00am until 7:00pm, the bus runs every 15 minutes. From 7:00pm until 11:00 pm, every 20 minutes. (Note, these are the times from the website. The sign for the bus says every 15 minutes until 8:00pm.) The bus runs seven days a week. The travel time into Paris, once you leave the airport (which can take 30 - 40 minutes because it stops at every terminal), is about 60 minutes.

It is not a "coach bus" in that it has no place to store your luggage underneath, but is like a city bus, with an accordion center connecting two halves. At the front and in the middle of the bus are two small shelves to store luggage.
You can use the Roissy Bus to return to the airport, picking it up on the same corner that you disembarked (Rue des Scribe). Buses run from Rue des Scribe starting at 5:45am until 11:00pm with the same frequency as mentioned above.
