Description:
The Thomas Cook group has been leading tourists around Europe for more than a 100 years now, and the name has become synonymous with solid information--not to mention nifty travelers checks. Best known for their compendium of European railway schedules, The Thomas Cook European Timetable, the company also produces a series of touring handbooks. On the Road Around the South of France is specifically designed for travelers with cars. The first few sections of the book have the obligatory information about getting to France, how to use the telephones, hours for post offices and banks, etc., followed by a brief history of the country. Where Thomas Cook really differentiates itself from other guidebooks is in the itineraries attached to the different regions On the Road covers: Provence, the Cote d'Azur, coastal Languedoc, the Rhone Valley, and the Auvergne. There are 30 recommended routes between key cities, towns, and attractions in Southern France; each chapter begins with the description of a city or major town followed by chapters detailing routes that lead from that place to other major destinations. Routes are accompanied by detailed driving directions and a sketch map of the route and stops along the way, along with descriptions of restaurants, places to stay, and sights to see. As an added treat, the book is punctuated with beautiful, color photographs throughout.
