Lonely Planet France Planning Map

Very disappointed in this map, there is very little detail and not enough information to plan any kind of trip.

Not worth the moneyDo not buy

Good map. Not as clear as I expected. Would have liked some more ideas for touring with older children.

We all rely on google maps and sat nav these days without looking at "the bigger picture" when planning a trip : this is the third one of these I have bought so far (Portugal, Spain & France) ... it's easy to plan a route when travelling long-distances (better than the old-style A3 sized, spiral bound road atlases where you're constantly flipping through pages!) ... we travelled from Caen, down to Bordeaux, into Spain to Salamanca, over to Lisbon and then down the Algarve (and back!) using these maps just using sat nav for traffic and the "tricky" bits. Wish LP did Bahrain, Oman, Jordan, etc ... maybe one day?

On this map the cons outweigh the pros. I was looking for a map I could use to pre-plan a trip to Normandy but I found this one lacking. Several of the places I wanted to locate were not covered. In addition, the map lacked the clarity I thought it should have. There must be a better map out there but so far I haven’t seen it.
