The best routing experience — but you can't buy tickets in it.
RER A and B serve all their stations; C and D stop at principal stations only. Transilien H, J, L, N, P, R run at reduced frequency — roughly one train every 30 to 60 minutes; these are suburban trains, not RERs. Noctilien night buses run roughly 00h30 to 05h30, included in the pass, covering peripheral areas the night métros and RERs miss.
On the all-night lines, most stations still close at the normal time (around 01h15). Only a named subset stays open all night. Don't assume your station is open — check the live open-station list before you rely on it.
Live open-station listThe other métro lines (3, 5, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13) stop at their normal times, roughly 01h to 02h30.
One rule: work out your last connection before you head out, not at 2am.
If your stop isn't on an all-night line or an open station, plan the Noctilien — or a short walk to a station that stays open — before you go.
Runs 24/7, often the fastest way to cover 2 to 5km between districts. Stations saturate around République, Bastille and Oberkampf — check the app for one 200 to 300m away.
Uber, Bolt and Heetch run all night, but expect long waits after midnight near the festive zones. Don't drive after drinking — with the extended night service there's no need.
