Everything you need to know about France
Most trips start in Paris, and it earns the attention — but the TGV puts a very different France within a few hours of it. Nice and the Riviera trade boulevards for pebble beaches and a coastline you can ride between by train. Marseille is rougher and older, the gateway to Provence and the calanques. Lyon is where the country actually eats, stacked with bouchons between two rivers, and Toulouse brings brick-red squares and a student-town buzz in the southwest. Two cities in one week is comfortable; three is doable if you let the train do the work.

Essential info for Canadian travellers
Passport: A valid Canadian passport is required. Canadians travel visa-free to the Schengen Area for up to 90 days; ETIAS pre-authorization is being introduced.
Travel insurance: Provincial health plans don't cover medical emergencies abroad — comprehensive travel insurance is essential.
Power & plugs: Type E outlets at 230V. Bring a European adapter; Canadian plugs do not fit.
Money: Cards work nearly everywhere and contactless is standard. Carry a few euro coins for bakeries, markets and public toilets, and note that service is already included in restaurant bills.

Mild, quieter and cheaper, with the big museums and restaurants far easier to get into.
Nov – MarOff season

France travel FAQ
Everything Canadian travellers ask before booking
Do Canadians need a visa for France?
No. Canadians travel visa-free to the Schengen Area for up to 90 days in any 180-day period. ETIAS pre-authorization is being introduced — check before you book.
How long is the flight from Canada to France?
About 7 hours 30 minutes nonstop from Toronto to Paris, usually overnight. Montreal is slightly shorter; Vancouver runs closer to 10 hours.
When is the best time to visit France?
May to September for warm weather and Riviera beach days. April and October are quieter and cheaper, with the big museums much easier to enjoy.
Is it easy to combine Paris with the south?
Yes — the TGV reaches Lyon in two hours, Marseille in about three and Nice in under six, all from central Paris with no airport transfer.
Do I need to speak French?
No. English is widely spoken in hotels, restaurants and tourist areas, though opening with bonjour goes a long way.
