The note about the different doors is helpful! That’s one thing I haven’t seen mentioned anywhere yet. I am curious if there is a reason you seemed to take the longest route to your destination. Just slightly longer but curious if you were avoiding certain stations or another reason.
We're so glad - we see the door thing get a lot of tourists, so it's important to note! Also, we just chose one based on personal preference, but you can take any 💙
Nice! A slight correction, though : line 11 is equipped with the new MP14 trains, as shown in the video, and they have air conditioning. M11 and M14 now only run the new trains, and therefore have AC on all trains. In the coming years, all remaining lines that still use older rolling stock will receive new trains with air conditioning. Including the 3bis and 7bis lines. Tourists do use line 7bis to visit the Parc des Buttes Chaumont.
Bonjour, Amelia! In your explanation of the 1-4 lines, you said something that I could not understand. Had to use to CC and it read, "three bis". Frankly, what are these? THANKS!
Hi Amelia, Paris Metro, you can't use your Credit Card ? Travelling outside Paris by rail, 1) Marseilles and 2) chateau Chambord which seems in the middle of no where. Any advice ? Don't say, stay at home. 😊
Unfortunately you can't use your credit card for transport in Paris. You will need to get a Navigo or paper ticket! For travelling outside Paris, you can purchase tickets online via Omio to Marseille and Chateau Chambord (or you can book a day trip) 💙
TGV high-speed services would be the best option for Marseille or other important French cities. Either TGV InOui, which are the regular services, or OuiGo, which is the low-cost option. Though sometimes the prices on the low-cost OuiGo services aren't much different from the InOui services depending on the schedules and how much demand there is. They'll be operated on double-decker high-speed trains. The upper decks have better views, but if you want to sleep or relax, the lower decks are quieter because they are all culs-de-sacs, while the upper deck is where the intercarriage gangways are located. The quietest upper decks are in end cars, usually cars 1 and 8 or 11 and 18. While the quietest cabins are the lower decks of cars 2 to 7 and 12 to 17 because there's simply no passage between cars at this level. Also, in the end cars, one of the bogies is located under the car instead of in-between, so it may get slightly less quiet in the lower deck than in other cars that have the regular intercarriage arrangement. The seats you want to avoid are on the upper decks of cars 3 and 5 or 13 and 15, as they are located next to the bar car and can see a lot of foot traffic in the aisle. These trains are massive, and can seat well over 500 passengers (over 1000 in double consists). So, to sum things up : if you want the better view outside and low passage, choose a seat on the upper deck in the end cars 1 or 8, and 11 or 18. Lower deck cabins have low passage wherever they are located in the train and are more cozy, but lower deck in end cars might be slightly less quiet than the lower deck in other cars due to the bogie structure. I almost always choose a seat on the lower deck, in cars 2 to 7 or 12 to 17, so that I can sleep or watch a movie without being bothered by passenger movements, and go upstairs to the bar to look outside and have the better view. OuiGo services usually don't have a bar on board, so there should be less passenger passage in aisles, though these trains have even more passengers.
Im aslo feel the speach is speed , ❤
Slower phase next time please. You're in the train already, we're still buying tickets 😂😂 Helpful tips anyway. Thanks!

Bonjour! It's one of the metro lines that are further out. If you're just visiting - it's likely you probably won't encounter it 🙂
@@LoveandParis_ Thank you!
Thanks.. QQ....The T+ (book of 10) ticket can be used in coming days as well???? Right? No compulsion to use with-in same day???
Correct! No need to use within the day
