Return to Paris
Return to France
Paris By Bus!
The following information was given to me by Fred. Some of you may know Fred by the handle he uses when helping folks on the France board on AOL,
FMinParis. He has put together a great guide to help you figure out which bus number to take to find the many attractions and things to see and to in Paris. He reminds everyone that while the bus may not drop you off right in front of the door, it will put you within a few blocks. It is recommended that you use the list below in conjunction with your Paris map. Fred (and me) make no guarantees about the accuracy as you should check them out for yourself, However, I did find them to be quite helpful. And, it is your responsibility to make sure you are on the right bus and headed in the right direction!
Fred calls this his Sort-of Guide to Buses to Various Places. Works for me! I have also added the Metro stations for you.

I hope this will prove of benefit to you. My suggestion is that you print it out, laminate it, and carry it with you when you are in Paris.
If you have questions you believe Fred may be able to help you with, you may send him an email at
