My Own Train Travel in France
October 1st, 2009 Posted in Train Travel France
When we think of France we directly associate it with the capital city, thus Paris for France. It is but practical to think that Paris can not represent the whole of France thus to get grasp of the whole Parisian culture you should travel to one area in a region. Though, many perhaps would like to travel by bus or car, train travel in France still cover the most distance and tourist attraction in the country.
In hopping a train it is most advantageous to buy your tickets in advance and that very time that you plan to ride the train. VALIDATE your train ticket as soon you get it or you will be fined. If you plan to take train rides on MOST of your travel in France then perhaps traveling lightly is a practical choice or else you will be schlepping your bag around and it can make your travel difficult. Light packing perhaps a pack bag with the basics essentials for the duration of your stay is a must.
My own train travel in France was as adventurous like many travel documentary you on your television; it was a fast, enjoyable and efficient tour many thanks to France’s train travel. Rail passes France is also available if you plan to travel long distances and from one location to another though it is more cheaper to buy tickets when you plan to stop at the nearest next train stop to enjoy the major tourist attraction. Eurail train travel is also a very good option when you traveling in France.
I enjoyed my travel getting to know the French culture. It has several differences in our culture. I find it quite a refreshing country to visit. I could never hear anybody talking so loud. Everybody seems to whispering something secret to their companion.
Even during our train travel; everybody seems to be so quiet and prim and proper. Have you noticed this on your France travel?
