Summer is quite interesting in France as you can observe many foreigners driving in their own cars towards the south of France, which is the most popular tourist spot. Nearly eighty percent of the cars are from abroad or other countries. Mostly, tourists come from England, the Netherlands, Germany and Italy. Big cities like Paris, Rennes, Lyon and Lille are among the French visitors to this spot.
British tourists are considered to be quite extravagant among the foreigners because they come in luxurious new cars of the latest make. In France, caravans are the way to go, but English locals simply view caravans as nuisances to driving, especially if their cars are following these caravans. This is because they cannot overtake the caravans. But, the Foreign Secretary is very keen on caravan trips and has made these sorts of holidays so popular that English people know how to respect caravan holidays, even though they are irate about caravans.
On the other hand, the Dutch are the ones perceived to be the economical tourists. Though they come in caravans but prefers to stay in campsites and bring all of their belongings, which usually include food and bicycles for every member of the family to avoid additional expenses.
Among all the foreigners, the Germans travel in the biggest motor caravans, the most modern of which have computerized panels. They also take their motorbikes and big tents with them, along with their pairs of shoes for hiking, biking, lounging and dinner.
Italians are the eye catcher when it comes to driving. They can be easily recognized by their style of driving as their caravans, sometimes, swerve right in the middle of the road and then suddenly jerk between to lanes. They drive in zigzags and then warmly greet you with hands dancing in the air.
As mentioned earlier, in France, caravans are one of the finest ways to travel around the country, as they give you the freedom to go anywhere you want without the limits of strict itineraries. They also allow you to save money from your accommodation expenses. Fayence in Var is a good place to stop by while searching for beautiful caravans. It is one of the most beautiful villages in France. It resembles the kind of villages you see on television or in period films, where filmmakers try to reconstruct France during the Middle Ages. Hope you love the idea of caravan in France.
