There are different ways to get into the city, but first, check if you have change in French Francs with you, if not, get some inside the Airport terminal. Now you can take a cab, waiting in line outside of the main entrance of each terminal. The cost will be 120 to 250 Francs according to destination, time and traffic conditions. Tip is minimum 10 %. There also buses that can take you to Paris (not at your hotel), check inside in Airport terminal. For Limousine service, you will find a "Voiture de Classe" waiting outside (written on the windscreen). Be sure to ask for the price to avoid any misunderstanding. Checking into your hotel : During the busy season and because of the late check out time, if you arrived in Paris in the early morning, you might have to wait to check in. The check out time is usually at noon, so your room may not be ready yet. Just mention "politely" to the receptionist how tired you feel and your room should be ready shortly. But if you have enough energy to stay up a few hours more, then leave your luggage at the hotel, go to a "Cafe" or "Brasserie" nearby and enjoy your first day in Paris with a nice breakfast. Then...goodnight ! <<<>>><<<>>><<<>>><<<>>><<<>>><<<>>><<<>>><<<>>><<<>>> IV - GENERAL INFORMATION FOR STUDENTS AND TEACHERS Sorbonne International Relations Office 17, rue de la Sorbonne, 75005 Paris Ph: 01.40.46.28.95 fax : 01.43.25.74.71 Centre d'Information et de Documentation Jeunesse 101, quai Branly, 75740 Paris Cedex 15 Ph: 01.44.49.12.00 fax: 01.40.65.02.61 Alliance Francaise 101 Boulevard Raspail, 75270 Paris Cedex 06 Ph: 01.45.44.38.28 fax: 01.45.44.89.42 French Cultural and Linguistic Attaches within the French Embassies <<<>>><<<>>><<<>>><<<>>><<<>>><<<>>><<<>>><<<>>><<<>>> V - HELPFUL HINTS AND PRACTICAL POINTERS 1 - PUBLIC HOLIDAYS The major public holidays in France are : January 1st, Easter, Easter Monday, Ascension thrusday, May 1st (labor Day), May 8th (end of World War II), Whit Monday, July 14th (bastille day), August 15th, November 1st, November 11th and Christmas.

Rates include maintenance and oil. Special conditions for "rent it here, leave it there". Unlimited public liability and property insurance and comprehensive coverage against loss of the vehicle by fire and theft. The renter is responsible for collision damage to the rented vehicle up to a certain limit according to car categories.

For any rental in France, you can ask for a reservation at the reception desk of your hotel or contact the central reservation of a car rental company. 7 - Duty free shopping Visitor to France may have the French value added tax deducted from goods bought in the country. In France, VAT is called "taxe sur la valeur ajoutee" TVA, it goes up to 20.6% or 22%. Note that not all shops apply the duty free sales system. Who benefits from the duty free sales ? any person, 15 years old and over who is resident abroad when purchasing the goods and travelling through France for less than six months.

Also private means of transport, cars, boats, planes and the corresponding spares and equipment. However, car radios and cassette players as well as sports articles such as bicycles, sailing and surfing boards, may be bought free of tax. Finally purchases of a commercial nature such as those made in large amounts.

The purchases, inclusive of tax, from any single store must, at least amount to 4 200 Francs per item either single or made up of differents parts if you are resident in the E.E.C, 2 000 Francs whatever the amount if you are resident in any other country. 8 - Learning some French online for Free You will now be able to learn some French for Travel for free, what you need is only Realaudio player that you'll be able to download.

NOTE: Before starting any journey, you must always STAMP your SNCF ticket in the orange "composteur" machine at the track access point. Paris Airport access: There are two adjacent rail stations sharing a single ticket office in Terminal/Aerogare 2 at the main international airport "Aeroport Charles-de-Gaulle Roissy" (Paris CDG). One is the terminal of RER (express metro) Line B3, with frequent trains to central Paris via Gare du Nord, Chatelet, St-Michel, Denfert-Rochereau etc., some of which continue via Antony where there is a connection by automatic metro to the other main airport, Orly. The other is on the new high-speed line linking Lille and certain other stations in northern France with Lyons and certain stations in southeast France. Travellers to these parts of France will generally find that direct TGV services from this station are quicker than travelling via central Paris, and vice versa. Bicycles: (see the SNCF leaflet "Train + Velo"): - may be taken free as accompanied baggage in the luggage van (fourgon) of certain non-TGV main-line trains if the traveller (un)loads it; - may be taken as accompanied baggage on all TGVs ONLY if folded or with wheels removed AND wrapped WITHIN not more than 120 cm x 90 cm. - may be sent separately as "registered baggage" for a fee of 135 FRF if boxed or 185 FRF if unboxed (this takes a few days). - travel free with you on most "TER" (Regional trains), with a few exceptions - travel free OFF-PEAK on the "RER" network OUTSIDE central Paris - can be hired by the day at some SNCF stations. NOTE: Prices for food and drink on board trains are usually MUCH higher than off them, there are NO ice water dispensers - so stock up before boarding!
