Nothing beats a road trip through France. Even the erratic French drivers, who toot at you for having the gall to abide by a speed limit, will add to the fun. The diverse destinations are endless here. Brave the knotted motorways into Paris one day and soar through the vineyards of the Champagne region the next. You can take the western route and have the Channel snake by beside you, or climb through the Alps to the east, swinging through Germanic enclaves like Dijon and the idyllic lake resorts of Annecy and Aix-les-Bains. Take a central path and you will undulate through the Loire Valley, with its abundant chateaux and bucolic views. Ignore the GPS and drive the long way around the lavender fields of Provence, the majestic tree-lined avenues of the Languedoc and the Mediterranean-hugged promenades of Côte d’Azur. In France, there is a road map to suit everyone.
