Are the Paris Visite and London Visitor Travelcard worth the money?
Paris is unlimited travel by bus and metro, plus the greater Paris area (Versailles, RER express, SNCF) 5 days is $67
London is unlimited bus and metro (either central zone or all zones,) 4 days at $27 or $43, respectively.
What do you think?

See my notes in your other posts.....
I had the London travelcard for 1st visit.....with tube pass....did not get my money's worth. As above, most of the places you are given entrance for are not ones you would likely go see.....and if you tried to do so to make up the cost you would be on the run constantly. ;D
I always get a tube/bus pass when there, just buy it at the window when I arrive. I simply like not having to mess with getting a ticket every time I am going somewhere. And they are less to buy the pass than to get these travel card things. Just remember to take along some passport size photos as you will need one if you buy more than a 1 day pass.
Eurail, while a good company, is in business to make money.....not giving you the most useful bang for your buck! ;D

Hi! Myself and my boyfriend got the Paris Visite Card for 5 days. We found it great value and it made thing easier for getting around, no queues and so on. We found it really handy having this pass:)

Paris Visit for zones 1-5 cost 45 Euro for 5 days. Better still, the weekly Carte Orange, valid from Monday to Sunday, cost only 27 Euro for the same zones.
