We recommend the following principle for selection of an off-road model for trips in France: if your planned routes are mainly within a city borders – a small crossover, while if the routes go through countryside or mountain regions – a large and powerful off-road 4x4 car.

Lyon, France: SUV and Offroad Rental Tips
The most popular SUV models offered at rental locations in Lyon are: BMW X3, BMW X5, Toyota Rav4, Hyundai Santa Fe, Kia Sportage, Suzuki Jimny and others.

While selecting your preferred model of an off-road vehicle, please examine the rental conditions. In particular, those requirements that concern credit cards – when it comes to renting an expensive car, sometimes offices in France ask information about two credit cards.

Before signing the contract in the rental office upon arrival, check that the invoice figures match with figures in your voucher.

Once the vehicle is assigned, inspect it carefully before leaving the parking. Crossovers and SUVs are often used in tough road conditions, therefore scratches and other exteriour defects are inevitable. Due to this, it is important to check and specify all existing defects in your rental documents.

If you plan to use an off-road vehicle in the mountains, it is recommended to order snow chains. This will save you from unexpected incidents. Other important equipment in France are mandatory child seats for travellers with children. OrangeSmile.com wishes you a safe trip and green lights on the roads of Lyon!

Driving Advices for France – Traffic Regulations and Road Usage Peculiarities
Previous hints
It is better to move slowly close to parked cars. Once they’ve parked their cars, some local drivers can open the car’s doors without even paying attention to other road users. Typically, representatives of the fair sex are distinguished by such carelessness.
All passengers must fasten seat belts during the car movement. Children under 10 years can be transported in a car only in a special chair. These chairs can be set only in the back of a car.
Transporting children under 10 years in the front seat is possible in two cases only - if the car has no back seat, or if the back seat is fully occupied by other children under 10.

Enjoying SUV and sightseeing of Lyon
In Lyon all possible forms of public transport are available. In addition to buses, trolley buses and subway, there are two funiculars connecting the historic district with Fourvière hill, which also houses several important sightseeing objects.

One type of ticket is used for all modes of public transport; the ticket price for a single trip is 5 euros. Travelers, who expect to use services of public transport actively, are recommended to buy travel cards. They can be designed for a day or a week; when buying a ticket for 10 trips you can reckon on a good discount.

Late in the evening the only available mode of transport is taxi. It has to be called by phone or taken on special parking. The most competitive rates are offered by Taxis Lyonnais and Allo Taxi.

It is convenient to travel around the city by bicycle; more than 200 vélo'v rental stations are working in Lyon. Those rental centers differ with competitive rates and convenient system of discounts. It should be noted that a rented bike can be subsequently left at any vélo'v center, regardless of where it was rented.

Shoppers should be aware that it is profitable to pay for purchases with national currency. Foreign currency in major shopping complexes can be taken at very disadvantageous exchange rate; in small shops you probably won’t succeed in paying with foreign currency.
