I am interested in getting this card for me and my 2 daughters, so we can take buses and Metro freely without having to pay separately each time.
Can we obtain this at the CDG airport, so we can use as soon as we arrive? Will it work on the RER B from CDG to Paris?
Thanks!
Thanks, Steve. Do you happen to know if it is the same price for kids (ages 12 and 8).
Cheers,
Lori
Children and adults pay the same price for a passe Navigo Decouverte.
Your 12-year-old is considered to be an adult. Your 8-year-old is a child. The fare for a single adult ticket from CDG to central Paris is 8.50 EUR. The fare for a child ticket is 5.95 EUR. The ticket provides unlimited transfers until you exit the system.
Buying ten-ticket carnets as needed for your younger child will probably be a better deal than a passe Navigo Decouverte. The tarif reduit (reduced price) for a carnet is 5.80 EUR. (The adult price is 11.60 EUR.) A single t+ ticket is good anywhere the metro goes (some lines end in zone 3) and on the RER in zone 1. Each ticket provides bus transfers for up to 90 minutes after boarding the first bus.
On weekends both of your children would be able to travel on one-day Ticket Jeunes (for persons under 26). The zone 1-3 pass costs 3.30 EUR/person/day.
