Paris City Pass: Discover Paris with ease

Paris is a city that rewards curiosity; every arrondissement has a landmark worth seeing, a museum worth exploring, and an experience worth your time. A Paris City Pass makes it easier to do all of this without juggling multiple tickets or overspending on individual entry fees. Whether you want to climb the Eiffel Tower, spend an afternoon in the Louvre, or cruise along the Seine, one pass bundles it all. You can choose a day-based pass that gives you unlimited access across a set number of consecutive days, an attraction-based pass that lets you handpick the experiences you want, or a museum-specific pass built for culture-focused explorers. With savings of up to 50% compared to buying Paris attraction tickets individually, there's a city pass in Paris for every type of traveller, whether you're here for a weekend or a full week.

Paris City Pass in a nutshell

A tourist card for every kind of trip

Paris City Cards come in three main styles: attraction-based passes like the Go City Paris Explorer Pass let you choose experiences from a curated list. Day-based passes like the Paris Pass by Go City, Turbopass Paris Essentials City Pass, work better if you want to cover as much ground as possible within a fixed window. The Paris Museum Pass, on the other hand, is purpose-built for culture enthusiasts who want unlimited access to museums and monuments over a set number of days.

One pass, countless experiences

Wondering what the Paris Pass includes? Depending on which pass you choose, a single city pass in Paris can unlock the Eiffel Tower, a guided climb of Sacré-Cœur, a Seine River cruise, a 24-hour Hop-on Hop-off bus tour, wine tasting at Les Caves du Louvre, and entry to world-class museums like the Louvre, Musée d'Orsay, and the Palace of Versailles; all without buying separate tickets for each.

Save more than you spend

Paris isn't cheap. A single entry to the Louvre costs €22, the Palace of Versailles costs €21, and the Arc de Triomphe is €16. Buying Paris attraction tickets one by one adds up fast. A Paris City Pass changes that equation: bundled pricing means you pay significantly less than individual rates, and the more you visit, the more you save, at least up to 50%!

Scan, explore, enjoy

While all visitors still go through security screening (that's a physical requirement at every major Paris attraction), having your digital pass means you don't have to wait in separate ticket lines at entrances. Your pass lives on your phone. Just download the relevant app, follow the activation instructions in your confirmation email, and scan your QR code at each attraction.

Verdict: Go City Explorer Pass (5 attractions)

Why it wins: The only attraction-based pass in Paris, with the Go City Explorer Pass, you get to choose any 5 attractions from a curated list, and this 5-attraction combo alone saves you €77 (37%) over buying tickets individually. Whether you're scaling the Eiffel Tower or sipping your way through Les Caves du Louvre's 18th-century wine cellars, the pass locks in value across your favourite experiences with 30-day flexibility from first use. If you’re someone who values spread-out days with sightseeing at your own pace, this pass gives you the flexibility to do that along with top-notch savings!

Verdict: Paris Pass by Go City (1 Day)

Why it wins: At €99, the Paris Pass by Go City saves you €107, a remarkable 52% off the combined gate price of €206. That means the pass essentially pays for itself with just two or three attractions. The real edge is that everything you need for an unforgettable Paris day is bundled into a single, clean price. While Turbopass options start from 2 days of access for €159, if your goal is to squeeze maximum value from a single day of Paris sightseeing, nothing beats the Paris Pass by Go City. It's the smartest spend in Paris, which gives you over half your money back in savings.

Which Paris City Pass is best for you

If you want to see the top Paris attractions on a budget

If you already have a shortlist of 3 to 5 Paris experiences and prefer to visit them at your own pace, the Go City Paris Explorer Pass is a smart choice as a Paris tourist pass. It saves up to 50% compared to gate prices and gives you 30 days from activation to use all your chosen admissions. Pick from top options like the Eiffel Tower 2nd Floor Guided Climb, a Bateaux Parisiens Seine River Cruise, a Montmartre & Sacré-Cœur Walking Tour, or a French wine tasting at Les Caves du Louvre.

Because you only pay for the number of attractions you select (3, 4, or 5), this pass removes the pressure of filling every hour of every day. Each attraction can only be visited once per pass, so it works best for focused explorers who are selective about their sightseeing and happy to move at a relaxed pace. Non-activated passes remain valid for 1 year from purchase, so there's no rush to commit to travel dates before you're ready.

If you want to cover as much as possible within a set number of days

If your Paris trip is time-crunched, say a long weekend, a 4-day city break, or a week, day-based passes are your best bet as a Paris tourist pass. The Go City Paris Pass® gives you access to 50+ experiences over 1, 2, 3, 4, or 6 consecutive days, including the Eiffel Tower, guided tours, river cruises, and a Hop-on Hop-off bus, all on one digital pass. This is ideal for travellers who want to cover as much ground as possible and don't want to plan every attraction in advance. The Paris Pass® Plus is for travellers who want “all of Paris” on one epic ticket. It combines 53 attractions into a single, cash‑free pass, including Paris’ headline sights, tours, and immersive experiences. Beyond the core inclusions, it adds 11 extra must‑visit attractions, spanning landmarks, museums, cruises, tastings, and neighbourhood activities, so you can pack more variety into every day.

For a more museum-heavy itinerary, the Turbopass Paris City Card with Paris Museum Pass is one of the most comprehensive city passes in Paris. It bundles 50+ experiences, including bus tours, Seine cruises, guided walks, and culinary activities with full Paris Museum Pass access to 50+ museums and monuments like the Louvre, Orsay, Versailles, Centre Pompidou, and Arc de Triomphe. Available in 2 to 6-day options, it's ideal for travellers who want to blend hands-on experiences with deep cultural immersion. If your trip is strictly museum-focused and you don't need guided tours, bus tours and other experiences, the standalone Paris Museum Pass(2, 4, or 6 days) offers direct access to 50+ sites at a lower price point, though note it doesn't include the Eiffel Tower.
