Orly is Paris’ and France’s second largest airport, and the closest airport to the city. However, being in the southern suburbs of Paris, it can take a while to get to Montmartre.

However, there are many transport options at your disposal, to get you to the historic village in the quickest time possible.

Taxi

A taxi is usually the quickest solution to most travel dilemmas. From Orly it’s no different. As Montmartre sits on the most northern section of Paris and Orly the southern, travelling by car around the Périphérique which circles the city, is by far the quickest option.

At just under 30km distance, a traffic free journey could could take around 40 minutes. This might sound a lot, but given Montmartre’s northern position, it’s actually a reasonable time.

Time: Minimum 40 minutes. Upwards depending on traffic.

Price: A fixed rate of 35 is charged for going anywhere in the Right Bank of Paris, where Montmartre is located.

There are multiple Bus/Train/Metro options to get you from Orly to Montmartre and more opening. Soon the former Ouibus, which has become BlaBlaBus will make stops in the city. For the moment, these are quickest options:
