- Most travelers & tourists take the Metro in Paris. But I enjoy taking the local, city buses when traveling in Paris. I get to discover more of the City of Lights this way. The first time I rode the bus by Notre Dame, my heart sped up! Only in Paris do you get to ride cross the Seine, stop in front of Saint Chapelle and pass the Eiffel Tower in the distance on an inexpensive bus ride!

Thanks so much. Headed to Paris this week, my first time with a disability. I will need buses instead of Metro that I have always used. This is very helpful!
Wishing you a wonderful and safe trip. Thank you for your comment.
Such an incredible labor of love, Lily…you obviously worked very hard on this video (but I’m sure you also had a blast doing it)! On behalf of all the travel-lovers out there, thank you for sharing your knowledge…it will definitely make someone’s Paris visit an easier, more enjoyable experience!!❤
Thanks for acknowledging my work on this video. Yes. I organized lots of clips I took over the several trips I made. Plus, formulating the right tone and information I wanted to share that's different than other videos out on YT. I wanted to make it enjoyable even for viewers not planning a trip so I did it in a vlog format. As always, hope you are well and thanks for all your support and friendship.
Very helpful, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Wow Lily…this is amazing. What a clever idea for a video. This is a great tool for someone planning a trip. Very interesting. Thank you! 🌷
So glad you enjoyed it and saw that I wanted to make this a "nice to watch" video of a side of Paris not many travelers attempted. Thank you for your kind comments, always.
@@Gadgetlily I later thought to mention that it actually felt like a mini Paris tour.
Superr❤
Thank you.

Hello from Paris I hope you enjoyed your trip in Paris
Hi Lil This was a thoughtful video and I so enjoyed the Paris experience. Lots of great tips were shared. The buildings are fabulous. I look forward to your next video. Happy February. Oh by the way are you going back to Paris any time soon? Spring is on its way!
Hi. No near plan soon but I already made a promise to myself that if the mood comes, I am booking a flight. Going to Paris is an easy and familiar trip for me. So it's definitely very necessary for my sanity. Haha.
I will take city busses during my next trip. Your guide has given me some confidence. I shied away because my French is not great. Thx, Gadget Lily!!
The key is to know where you are going and familiarize yourself with the stops you want to get off. When you start your conversation with Bonjour, I find most people are very willing to help. 🤗 Thank you for your comment and watching.
Thank you for the video. Do we have to tap our Navigo card again when we get off the bus ?
No. You do not need to tap “off” in Paris. Only tap or validate once when you get on. Btw, some countries bus systems do require tap on and off. That’s to determine the distance of travel and the fare is based on how far you are riding the bus. In Japan and Taiwan, buses require tap on and off, for example. Thanks for your question.
Thanks for the video. Can I use a Navigo pass to validate for two persons when getting on a bus?

Traveling as a group:
A single Navigo Easy pass cannot be used for several passengers. Every traveler must have their own ticket.
@@Gadgetlily Thanks for your quick response. In this case, will I rather purchase 10 actual tickets instead and use 2 tickets for two of us each time we get on a bus?
The base pass is 2 euros. I liked the convenience of it. I also kept the Navigo Easy pass as a souvenir. I loaded 10 rides for my 5 day trip and it worked really well for me. I did end up reloading 2 more rides onto the pass at the end. What you mentioned will work too if you decide not to get the Navigo Easy and just use individual tickets.
Here's more information.
