MOBILE PHONE & INTERNET
Contact your operator before leaving and check if you will be able to use your mobile phone abroad.
A good option is to buy a “country Sim card” in a phone shop. It will cost you around 10€ / 15€ and will allow you to call local phone numbers with internet access
MONEY MATTERS & CLOSING HOURS
The currency is the €uro. Make sure to have some cash with you as there aren’t always ATM machines in small villages.
Tips are always included (different than in Canada and USA) but always appreciated.
FAQ
How should I pack for my Burgundy walking trip?
Keep your luggage to a manageable size—something you can easily carry through airports and on French trains. Try not to overpack; chances are you won’t wear everything you bring. A recommended packing list will be included in your travel kit documentation.
Is it safe for a solo woman to walk alone in France?
From our experience, yes. We have many solo travellers booking our various holidays and they generally report of positive experiences.
What is a typical French breakfast?
A traditional French breakfast is simple and typically includes a mix of the following: fresh baguette, pastries (called “viennoiseries”) such as croissants, pain au chocolat, or pain aux raisins (a pastry with custard and raisins). In the hotels and guest houses during your trip, you will also find cereal, yogurt, and fromage blanc —a creamy, yogurt-like fresh cheese —along with fruit, jams, fruit juice and hot drinks.
