5 Tips for Travelling in France
France is one of the most diverse countries in all of Europe, from the stunning valleys in Dordogne, to the cool, calm peaks in the Alps, the cultural melting pot of Paris to the rugged Brittany coastline. Each and every French region has different architecture, different restaurants and a completely different landscape – you wouldn't be able to fit everything in in a whole year of visits. Learn more about traveling in France with these tips.
Try to Speak French5
Even if the waiters correct your pronunciation or answer your question in English, trying your hand at the language and making the effort to speak even a little bit of French will really open doors for you throughout your stay. Don't think that just because the French respond in English that you should just speak in English from the off – instead, make the effort and you'll see that it'll be massively appreciated.
Try Something New
France is the country of fabulous food, fabulous drink, fabulous walks, culture and countryside. Make the most of it by trying something new everyday. Never eaten steak tartar before? You're in France, so you might as well give it a go. If you've never done much walking, now is definitely the time to start. And if you've never gone on a river cruise? France is definitely the place to start – so take a look at these great river cruises in France for more inspiration.
Ask For Advice
Stuck for ideas on where to travel? Ask a local. They might have a favorite restaurant or wine bar to recommend, or they might know about an attraction or walk that you might not have heard of. Attractions like Les Gorges du Verdon, a stunning set of gorges that has widely been described as the European Grand Canyon, Jardin du Luxembourg, a lovely garden in the center of Paris and Carnac, France's answer to Stonehenge, are not as well known as some of the most common French attractions like the Eiffel Tower – and so you might miss attractions such as these if you don't pipe up and ask for advice!
Don't Forget a Cover-Up
Although Southern France is warmer than Northern France, it's still a little bit cooler than some travelers expect, especially if you travel through the spring or autumn. Taking a cover-up in Northern France – and yes, a coat – is also important even through the summer. It can get cool throughout the evenings and so you want to be able to wrap up warm.
Do Things A Little Differently
Instead of just traveling by car, think about doing things a little bit differently by jumping on public transport. The tram and train system in France is second to none and it's absolutely the easiest way to get around. The buses are also brilliant, too. The one thing you need to steer clear of is the taxicab system – although it's efficient, it is very, very expensive.
Traveling through France is a wonderful opportunity for anyone holidaying in Europe and following the tips above should ensure that you have a fantastic stay in this beautiful country.
A Taste of Turkey
When travelling abroad one of the greatest pleasures is to taste the local cuisine as part of culturally immersing yourself in the country. Brits are stereotypically wary of foreign foods, but this stereotype is largely unfounded, with most happy to try national dishes and delicacies when travelling overseas. Turkey is a land of rich flavours and exciting textures, and the city of Bodrum is a fab place to explore some of these, with many restaurants and fresh food markets to help you on your culinary adventure. Take all your senses on holiday on your next break with Bodrum Holidays.
Breakfast
Start the day right with a traditional Turkish breakfast. You can enjoy this platter of cheese, olives, tomatoes and other seasonal goods in most cafes and bistros in Turkey. A very communal affair, all members of your group shares the food around the table with bread and preserves accompanying the local delicacies.
Kebabs
In England Kebabs are synonymous with nights out and takeaways. Real Turkish kebabs however are much more refined than this and form a staple part of the local’s diet. The favourite here is a chicken kebab served in pita with fresh salad. These are good for a quick lunch on the go and there are many kebab stands in Bodrum from which to rediscover the donner.
Meze
Meze is a typical Turkish supper, and you usually have a cold meze consisting of cheese, breads, olives and hummus, followed by hot meze of meats and other small dishes. The weather is almost always hot in Turkey and eating a huge amount at any one sitting is less than appealing, so this way of grazing through dinner is ideal.
Delicious and usually very healthy, Turkish food is a wonderful part of travelling to the country. Take in the sights, sounds and tastes of the country on a truly foodie adventure in the city of Bodrum.
