France for less: Paris, trains & countryside

Trains over flights

Within France, the TGV is fast and often cheaper than flying when booked early. For multi-country trips, compare rail vs budget flights.

If your flight is delayed or cancelled, you may be owed up to €600 — it's worth checking a compensation service.

Cars & countryside

To explore Provence or the Loire, an all-inclusive car rental beats piecing it together. Book ahead in summer.

💡 Money-saving tips

  • ✓Book TGV trains early for low fares.
  • ✓Claim compensation for delayed/cancelled flights.
  • ✓Rent a car (all-inclusive) for the countryside.
  • ✓Store bags cheaply while sightseeing.
