Cheap Flights to France

Useful advice for travelling to France (FRA)

It is said that France is the land of love and romance. The country’s shores are washed by both the Atlantic ocean and the Mediterranean sea, and the air is filled with fresh aromas of coffee and baguettes, which beckon you to get closer and start your French adventure. The world’s most visited sightseeing object the Eiffel tower will open up a panoramic view of the whole Paris city. Visiting Nice or the host city of the annual Cannes Film Festival will help you understand the French way of living: relaxing, unhurried, and life-celebrating.

Preparing for the trip

The most important things are good mood, fitting clothes, and a photo camera. Flying to France is easy, and you will not need to worry about a visa or any compulsory vaccinations. However, you should take a first aid kit with you as a precaution.

Transportation and travel charges

The best ways to get better acquainted with France are to use trains, metro, and buses. Cities are best reached by trains. After arriving to a city, you will be probably most comfortable on a bike. Use it to visit medieval-looking villages, gothic architecture, and vineyards.

Local currency is euros, and French prices are higher than Lithuanian ones. Therefore, travellers wishing to indulge in delicacies like frog legs or snails in wine sauce will have to be ready to pay up. Sightseeing will also be pricy, but there are still many free-to-visit places in France. You can go and see the Notre-Dame de Paris Cathedral, the Tuileries Garden, or the Champ de Mars without having to pay. However, going to the top of the Eiffel Tower will cost you 17 euros, a visit to the Louvre Museum will cost you 15 euros, and exploring the Château de Chambord will cost 10 euros. In a local French bakery, you can buy a croissant for 2 euros, a cup of espresso for 2.60 euro, and a glass of wine for 4 to 6 euros.

Additional information:

• Official language is French, but 36% of locals know English as well.
• France belongs to the UTC +1 time zone.
• Direct distance from Vilnius to France’s capital Paris amounts to 2041 kilometre.
