"Paris Visite" is a transport ticket valid for 1, 2, 3 or 5 consecutive days, to discover Paris and its surroundings by metro, bus, RER and train from Île-de-France to Disneyland® Paris, Versailles and to airports Paris - Charles de Gaulle and Paris - Orly (depending on ticket validity zone).
The RATP, Paris subway network, has 14 lines that are identifiable by their numbers, colors and directions. The RER (regional express network) network, with the lines (RATP and SNCF) A, B, C, D and E, serves Paris and its region. It has combinations with the urban subway network and with some SNCF lines.

Tickets can be purchased at RATP stations and at some tobacconists and newspaper and magazine
