8 of 8 people found the following review helpful. disappointing book, perhaps 30 pages about driving in Normandy By mikemac9 We were looking for a book about roads we could take to explore this region, with suggested times (eg. day 1 do this, day 2 do that, etc) and routes. The title made this book sound exactly like what we were looking for. Save your money! This is a slim book of about 125 pages with the stuff you can find in just about any guidebook to the region. There is something akin to a pamphlet inside the book devoted to the erstwhile subject of the book, driving routes. That section with 3 routes runs from pages 17 to 43, so around 25 pages including many full-page pictures. There is another 8 or so pages on the area around Lille, which isn't even in Normandy.The description on the Amazon website oversells what you get. In part the description promises "Get around easily - easy-to-read, full-colour route maps, detailed directions". What do you get? 1/2 page maps for each of the routes, and a 1-2 sentence route description for each leg.We wanted a book with suggested routes to visit the many villages and sites in Normany. This isn't that book. I returned it.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Limited content By Amazon Customer This is a compact, travel guide to the D-Day beaches of Normandy and Flanders regions by cars. It contains a decent amount of information about the regions but not nearly enough to plan your travel solely with this book. It's best used as a companion guide to a full featured travel guide.This book features 4 road trip options to get your started and tailor to your own liking: D-Day's Beaches (3 days, 88 miles), Monet's Normandy (4 days, 180 miles), Tour des Formages (5 days, 196 miles) and In Flanders fields (3 days, 140 miles). The book also features 17 destinations in decent amount of details with overview map, eating and sleeping places, and other activities. You can sample these destinations and incorporate some into your selected road trip. The road trips section may have already included some of these destinations but in general details are few and far between. The destinations section definitely contains more information to help you decide and research further.The last part of the book is Road Trip Essentials consisting of France driving guide and France travel guide. It contains general but useful information about renting a car, roads, rules, parking, safety as well as general tourist information. At the end is a pullout map about the regions. It is small though. I would recommend getting a large, more detailed map for your road trip.All in all, this is a slim book that contains a decent amount of information and road trip options for the Normandy & D-Day beaches, and Flanders. It is a good overview of the options you may take and of the places you may see for the road trip in the regions. You'll still need a full featured travel guide(s), and possibly additional online researches if you want to make full use of you trip there.
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Not Enough Content By Dan Lebryk If you are planning a trip to the Normandy region of France, this is a decent book. Normandy has a lot to offer, the obvious is the D-Day beaches, and the not so obvious is World War I, cheese, and Monet. My complaint with this book is wasted pages on repeating the exact same information. I would have preferred an appetizer in the front of the book and much more detail in the back. Instead the book repeats the same information, leaving me with two identical appetizers. The book is also decidedly British; it is truly geared toward British travelers.Lonely Planet was on a roll with their guidebooks - in the past five years they have released some amazing books about France and Italy. Their best road trip books are incredible - the book that covers all of France is simply amazing. This is a diversion to something not so great. It seems like they didn't have enough content to fill a true guidebook, so they padded it with a few pages about Paris, a lot of pages about getting around, hotels, and replicated text. Sadly, there is only about 30 pages of real content in this book, the rest is pretty much fluff and pretty pictures.If you can get past those criticisms, the real content about Normandy is excellent. They identify some of the most beautiful places in Normandy and describe them well. Yeah, they are a little overly happy with Lille and Le Havre, but I can excuse one or two small missteps. And maybe the detail about the D-Day beaches isn't there, even though it is so easy to get what you need on site. What they do well is talk beyond those beaches, and get to some really beautiful places you might not normally consider. The Monet route is probably one of the finest described.The book is organized two three parts. The first is describing the four road trips. In most books this would be a couple of pages each, instead they dedicate more like 5-10 pages. The second part is normally the detail about places along the way. Instead of a lot more information, the second section is basically a copy of the road trips information; oh they add hotels and restaurants. My complaint about hotels in guidebooks - if you are coming from abroad, you've already made your hotel reservations. There is no need to add weight to a guidebook for the road with hotels. Restaurants, absolutely yes - there should be more restaurants included. The details section is really more for the Brit coming over for a few days at the last minute, and they need a hotel on the spot. The third section is the standard driving rules and how to get along socially. Again, this is directed at people used to driving on the left side of the road.The fold out map at the back of the book is very good. You could pretty well navigate these road trips with just this map. The French tend to not use highway or road numbers like in the US. Instead they mark a road with the next town over - a road is in the direction of a particular town. It takes some adjusting to think next town or city is where you want to go. Of course GPS is the best way to navigate. Watch out for roaming data charges.Normandy requires a car to get around, so you will drive. I've spent a long time in France and owned a car there. They miss a few pieces of critical advice for Americans in this book. Do not ever attempt to drive in Paris. Unless you live in Boston or another major city and drive daily in the city, traffic and the city will cause you no end of frustration. If you are going to stay in Paris and then drive to Normandy or some other area in France, rent a car in the city the day before you leave. Drive the car back to the hotel and park it there overnight. The next day, drive straight out of Paris - don't try to sight see in the car.There are some very strict driving rules in France that have changed in the last few years - speed limit is the speed limit. You might do 10KPH over the limit, but not anymore. There are hidden speed cameras everywhere and generally the French drive the speed limit now. You'll get a really ugly bill from your rental car company, not for the speeding fine (they can't collect those fines) but for an administrative fee to give the French police your information. That's called rental car company profit, pure and simple. The other thing to be very aware of is drinking and driving. Don't take this lightly at all. Many places set up random breathalyzer check points, and if you are above the limit (way lower than in the US), you can be taken off to jail. They are serious about speeding and drinking.This is a beautiful underrated area of France. The D-Day beaches are the draw. There are other wonderful things to do in this area.
