Credit card touring. Looking to follow the Rhone , Loire and then the Seine to Paris. If you have any tips let me know please. |

It's the first time I've done anything like this so don't have any tips sorry! However you will probably be arriving in the north of France roughly when the Tour de France is up there. Check out the routes on the website because it would be a great experience to see it! Couldn't believe my luck that after booking everything it just happens that we are crossing the route on 2 days! :) |
