Overview

Planning to rent a car and explore France? Don't hit the road without this book-it's the essential companion every American tourist needs to survive and thrive on the world's most beautiful (and occasionally intimidating) driving landscape. From navigating ronds-points like a local to dodging radars, mastering priorité à droite, and cruising the Riviera without a 135 fine, Declan Murphy, a seasoned traveler who's lived the French road life, spills the secrets you won't find in a rental pamphlet or a quick Google search. This isn't just a guide-it's a lifeline, packed with insider know-how to turn a nerve-wracking trip into a grand adventure. Think you're ready for narrow Provençal lanes where tractors rule, speed limits that drop without warning, or ZCR zones that catch foreigners off-guard? Without this book, you're not. Discover how to rent the right car (manual or automatic?), blend with French driving style (assertive but never rude), and spot hidden gems like the Route des Grandes Alpes, Loire châteaux loops, or Provence lavender fields-routes no tour bus can touch. With practical tips, laugh-out-loud stories, and a local's wisdom, it's everything you didn't know you needed-until you're staring down a sheep traffic jam or a blind hairpin with no guardrail. Whether it's your first jaunt or your fifth, this book is your co-pilot-bursting with must-know details on signs, tolls, petrol stations, emergency fixes, and scenic drives that'll make your Instagram weep. Don't risk a holiday of white knuckles and wrong turns-grab this now and drive France like you belong there. Essential, entertaining, and utterly French-your trip starts here.
