WELCOME TO PROVENCE & SOUTHEAST FRANCE

With its shimmering coast and rustic Provenal heart, the Mediterranean south has a timeless allure. Driving here youll travel through wildly divergent landscapes: cinematic coastline, rugged hinterland and bucolic valleys.

Southeastern Frances glamorous cities, deep-blue Mediterranean and chic hilltop villages always delight. Inland, weave between fragrant lavender fields, forested gorges and Roman ruins. Linger in art galleries or be engulfed in the lush green wetlands of the Camargue.

Along the way youll connect with the poets, painters and writers who flocked here during the 20th century, chasing sun and inspiration.

PARIS

If ever a city needed no introduction, its Paris a trend setter, fashion former and style icon for centuries, and still very much at the cutting edge. Whether youre here to tick off the landmarks or seek out the secret corners, Paris fulfils all your expectations, and still leaves you wanting more.

Getting Around

Driving in Paris is a nightmare. Happily, theres no need for a car. The metro is fast, frequent and efficient; tickets cost 1.70 (day passes 6.70) and are valid on the citys buses. Bikes can be hired from 1800 Vlib (www.velib.paris.fr) stations; insert a credit card, authorise a 150 deposit and pedal away. Day passes cost 1; first 30 minutes free, subsequent 30 minutes from 2.

Parking

Meters dont take coins; use a chip-enabled credit card. Municipal car parks cost 2 to 3.50 an hour, or 20 to 25 per 24 hours.

Discover the Taste of Paris

Le Marais is one of the best areas for eating out, with its small restaurants and trendy bistros. Dont miss Paris street markets: the March Bastille, rue Montorgueil and rue Mouffetard are full of atmosphere.

Live Like a Local

Base yourself in Montmartre for its Parisian charm, if you dont mind crowds. Le Marais and Bastille provide style on a budget, while St-Germain is good for a splurge.
