Bring your own shopping bags to markets

Italy and France are two of the best places in the world to tour markets, such as Vieux's open-air market or Marche de la Liberation market, but they do have their quirks. For example, if you want to purchase any of the goods at the markets you visit when sightseeing between Livorno and Nice, you need to bring along a basket or your own shopping totes. Most places you'll Italy and France don't often provide shopping bags, so be prepared.

Be wary of thieves

If you're planning on traveling by public transportation, such as the bus, train, or ferry, you need to be wary of thieves. Although France is a safe country for the most part, thieves and pickpockets are known to target travelers at public transport stations.
