France & Spain – Alps & Pyrenees. 10 days departing Sunday 21st September 2025 – FULLY BOOKED

France and Spain-Alps and Pyrenees 25.

We’re heading to the south of France for ten days of enthusiastic driving on great roads in the Alps, before heading to the Pyrenees where we’ll be driving on some amazing roads, criss-crossing the border between France and Spain.

Day 1.

We’ll be meeting for a quick breakfast before heading off on a short drive to the Euro Tunnel terminal. We’ll hop on the train and 45mins later arrive in France. We’ll then travel in convoy using the fabulous French autoroute system, heading towards Grenoble. Our first overnight stop.

Day 2.

After some breakfast, we’ll pack our bags and head towards Cannes following Route Napoleon, before heading deeper into the Alps, taking in the awesome views and of course some of the greatest roads. We’ll be spending the next two nights here at our hotel.

Day 3.

No need to pack your bags this morning as this is the first of two nights at this hotel. Leave everything where it is and head for breakfast. After breakfast and the daily briefing we’ll head out on the roads. Not far to go as we’re ideally placed, surrounded by mountain passes. We’ll be out for the day stopping for lunch along the route, before returning to our hotel.

Day 4.

After breakfast and our briefing we’ll pack our bags, load up the cars, and head out for the second morning driving in this area. We’ll have a lunch stop before making our way along some fine roads in the direction of Avignon, where our hotel awaits.

Day 5.

Wakey wakey! While it’s still dark, let’s find a cup of coffee and head to the summit of Mont Ventoux, beating the cyclists to see the sunrise! What and experience! Now back to the hotel for breakfast. There are then a few hours to play in the surrounding mountains before heading towards the Pyrenees. On route we’ll pass under the engineering masterpiece the Millau bridge.

Day 6.

We are now in the Pyrenees, different but just as amazing. Let’s get some breakfast and head deeper into the Pyrenees on some truly spectacular driving roads, and head to our next hotel!

Day 7.

No need to pack your bags this morning as we are staying here for two nights, right in the centre of the Pyrenees, with great driving roads and views in all directions. Remember your passport as we’ll be border hoping between Spain and France for the next days.

Day 8.

We’ll be staying in the Pyrenees again today, driving on never ending, wonderful roads, heading towards Pampona for our final evening in a hotel.

Day 9.

Our final day driving in Spain as our ferry leaves Santander at 5:00PM, heading for Plymouth. We can’t be late for the ferry but let’s use the best roads available to get us there! There’s normally a relaxed party atmosphere on the ferry home as we reminisce about the experience.

Day 10.

We will have been sailing through the night, making progress as we sleep. There’s plenty of time to swap pictures, videos, and chat before we arrive in Plymouth at approximately 2:00PM on the 30th of September.
