France uses the euro (EUR) as its currency. Travelers generally find it convenient to use cards for most transactions, especially in cities and larger establishments, but carrying some cash is advisable for small vendors, markets, and rural areas where card acceptance may be limited.
In Tours, travelers should be cautious of pickpocketing, especially in crowded areas like markets and public transport. Common scams include overpriced taxi rides without meters and fake charity appeals. Staying vigilant in busy tourist spots and using authorized services can help avoid these issues.
