Health and Safety:
All of these cities are relatively safe but like any place, always keep an eye on your belongings. French healthcare is excellent but make sure you have travel insurance.

Local Etiquette and Respect:
French people appreciate when visitors make an effort to speak a bit of French. Also, it's customary to say 'bonjour' (hello) when you enter a shop and 'au revoir' (goodbye) as you leave. During dining, keep your hands on the table (but not your elbows). If you're invited to someone's home, bring a gift such as wine or flowers.
Remember to show respect for the local culture and traditions.
