My 18 year old son is going to France this summer. He will be in Paris for 1 week. Are there any deals to be had on Metro Passes? Any museum passes? Want him to get the most out of his money. Thank you.

It covers all the options. If getting a Navigo Découverte, which I recommend, take a scan of your passport photo with you to attach to it.

www.parisbytrain.com is another good site for metro info.
On Saturday and Sunday he'd also be eligible for the ticket jeunes weekend, which is unlimited travel on the weekend for under-26s. I think it's maybe 3.30 for one day.
make sure he gets the paris museum pass. after three uses it has paid for itself. get it at the airport, metro stations, the louvre. great deal if 18 or above. have fun be safe.
