France and Italy meet along the Riviera and across the Alps, and travelers link them by coastal train or through the Mont Blanc and Fréjus tunnels. Both are in the EU roaming area, so a regional plan normally covers the pair. The complications are small states and neighbours: Monaco sits on the coastal route and is not on the EU roaming list, and Switzerland is close enough in the Alps for phones to pick up its networks.
