  • Familiarise yourself with your rental. Fix your seat and mirrors, find the lights and blinkers, and get comfortable with its handling before you set off. And remember to stay on the right side of the road in France.

  • Local speed limits can vary, but it's typically around 45kph in urban areas and 125kph or so on highways. Always check the posted signs.

  • The blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit in France is 0.05%. Since alcohol's effects vary from person to person, the best way to be sure you're safe to drive is not to drink at all.

  • One of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination is around 8am. Make life easier by steering clear of rush hours in general.

  • The euro (EUR) is the currency you'll be using for everyday purchases and activities. Pay with a card when it's convenient, but have some cash handy for places that don't accept electronic payment.
