Insider tips
- — Public Wi-Fi is often limited and may be insecure—use your eSIM for safer, more reliable access.
- — Works on TGV & regional trains for uninterrupted maps
- — The dry season (November to February) is the most comfortable for travel. The rainy season (June–September) can make roads difficult in some regions, especially in remote areas.
