When to go

The best times to go are late Spring, Summer and early Autumn when everything is open and all the services are available. During the Winter many restaurants and some attractions close so you need to do your research.

How much time to spend

You need at least one week to even the scratch the surface in most areas – there are so many things to do and see that I would recommend two or three weeks to really get a feel for the place. However if you’re visiting a city like Paris or Lyon you may only have a day or so pick out what you want to see and use the app to facilitate the process!

High & low season

High season in the France is from early-mid July to mid-late August although the two weeks either side can still be quite busy. Low season is May-June and October - November. The main event during the High Season has to the Tour de France and during the Low Season is the Nice Carnival
