Which is the Best [transportation] Way to see Paris in a Day?

Hello:

My family and I will be in Paris for a day early next month, and I would appreciate advice as to whether the metro train, hop-on/hop off bus, or batobus boat is the best way to see the city of lights "on the quick."
Thanks

Either the hop on/off bus or the batobus will be the best mode to see all the key sites. They both take you directly to the spots whereas with the Metro you will need maps, tickets and have to switch in between lines quite often.

Hi W,

>My family and I will be in Paris for a day...<

That's too bad.

How are you getting to/from?

the hop on/off bus is a great way to see the main sites - would definitely recommend it as well.
