Driving Rules

Remember, in France, they drive on the right. It might take some time to get used to for Brits, but keep calm and follow the flow of traffic. Roundabouts are abundant in France too, but unlike the UK, traffic on the roundabout has to yield to drivers entering it.

Recommended Cars

Go for compact or small cars for city driving. For coastal drives or mountainous terrain, consider a convertible or an SUV respectively. Remember to book the car with valid insurance and with options for additional driver(s), if needed.
