Travelling around France - transportation network
It is worth noting that the road surface in the country is at an excellent level. However, it is quite difficult to travel in a rented car in large cities. The fact is that in the capital, Marseilles, and other large tourist cities, there is a huge problem with a lack of parking spaces. In addition, huge traffic jams occur during peak hours. It is therefore advisable to only use a car when making long distance trips. Hitchhiking in France is not common. That is why it makes sense to hitchhike only if you find yourself on the outskirts of a city. It is worth noting that in France the services of taxi companies are also very popular. Prices for taxi trips can become more expensive in the evening, on weekends, or on holidays. Please note that if you need to order a taxi for a trip of more than 20 kilometers, the charging will not be based on the distance traveled, but on the time spent. On average, this costs about 15 euros per hour.
