Hi all,
I am taking my summer holidays in France this year. I intend to fly into Paris and spend 3 days (I will have the wife and 2 young kids with me - 10 and 4.)
After Paris, I intend to take the train to Burgandy, where we will pick up our campervan.
I have ZERO idea of an itinerary... except, I am very keen to take my family to the Loire Valley as my girls will simply love the chateaux.
My aim is to drive only a little. I want to drive and then set up camp, from the camp, we will explore for 2 or 3 days by bicycle.
At the end of the 3 weeks, I need to be back in Burgandy to return the campervan, from there, we will head on the train and ferry to continue our holiday in England.
I would HUGELY value someone giving me an itinerary that would be great for a small family in a camper. We love history, architecture and food and of course, I dont mind the odd sip of cider and wine!... I know that I can see this throughout France, but... I dont know what I should prioritise for this trip.
We dont have loads of cash and aim to do this as cheap as possible (July is already too darned expensive, but I am a teacher, so no choice with dates.)
Again, thanks in advance for thinking on this. I truly would value a route to take... we intend to travel back roads, which may also limit our distances... but, of course, if I need to, I can get onto a highway (although I am hiring an very old combi van, which probably wont like highway speeds.)
Regards
