Summary: Mandatory for your next trip to Provence!
Review: As Americans making our first trip to Provence, we knew we should bring along a map with sufficient detail to guide us through the quaint hillside towns of this incredible region of France. We were never disappointed in our Michelin map - it allowed us to drive from town to town effortlessly, even on very remote (and narrow!) country roads. We used the map in conjunction with our France Green Guide, so we knew which towns we didn't want to miss. With a little planning on our part, we were able to see some of the most beautiful villages - including Les Baux, Lacoste and Bonnieux - without any fear of getting lost. We highly recommend this map!

Summary: Impossible to read!
Review: My husband and I recently tried to use this map for our vacation last month. We found it absolutely impossible to use. The numbers for major highways were very difficult to find, and therefore planning our routes was impossible. Towns were not labeled, and the elevation lines got in the way of everything. Save your money and get a tourist map or a rental-car-company map when you arrive at your destination. We're still not sure how Michelin has this fabulous reputation...................

Summary: Map lacks an index!
Review: The map is extremely detailed, legible and accurate but is FATALLY FLAWED as, incredibly, it lacks an index!An e-mail to Michelin asking how long it expected travellers to scan perhaps 1000 names in order to locate an entry yielded the response that Michelin is . . . considering the problem. I am not kidding.

Summary: The Swiss Knife for all travellers in Heaven.
Review: Valence, Nîmes, Gap, Monte-Carlo. These are the limits of the game. And what a game! With this very precise map, you can spend years and years exploring what most french people call "the most beautiful part of France". Michelin staff was smart enough to put together on the same handy map both "arrière-pays of Provence" and more widely known Côte-d'Azur. If you like walking from one hotel to the other one you will find this map detailed enough to provide you with the trails details. If you are just a business man in a hurry, you will pay attention to detailed access to the newest expressways. TGV (high speed) train can be tracked through Provence countryside (maybe a useful thing to do if you plan to buy a quiet hideaway in silent unknown village)... Whatever character you will be playing, you will need this Swiss Knife tool: a Michelin 1/200 000 map.
