Carte d'Orange Zones?
 
We will be in Paris for 15 days in September, renting an apartment on Ile Saint Louis. I see there are Metro and bus stops in the vicinity, and am wondering about getting the less expensive version of the Carte d'Orange - that just cover 2 zones, I think. Does anyone know which arrondissements are in the two zones, and the price?
Many thanks!

There is an excellent map on line of the M&eacute;tro and RER systems overlaid on a street map. Download <i>RER IdF</i> from:

</b>
Zones 1 &amp; 2 include all 20 <i>arrondissements</i> (and then some), so you really can't go wrong buying the cheapest CO for &euro;15.40

All the prices can be seen at

Zones 1 and 2 cover the entire city of Paris (all 20 arrondissements) and a few spots in the near suburbs. Those are the only zones you need if you'll be travelling only or primarily within the city proper.
