I'm not much of a risk taker and would like to know for sure if you are able to do this.
Any help is appreciated.
Yes you can do that. You just select the package deal at the kiosk.
If you expect to leave the city (ie versaille) you might want the RER package deal for seven days or however long you are staying. Otherwise just do a one-day package to get to the city, then on day two buy a metro-only multiday pass for the remainder of your stay, followed by a metro/RER pass on the last day to get back to CDG.
