Philip's France and Belgium Road Map is designed for long-distance driving, and is a convenient size for opening out on a table or in a vehicle.

France and Belgium are shown at 10 km to 1 cm (16 miles to 1 inch), an ideal scale for long-distance driving, with major routes and destinations picked out in bold colours. Toll and pre-pay motorways are clearly shown, along with restricted and unrestricted motorway junctions, service areas and rest areas.

Town plans are provided for Bordeaux, Boulogne, Brussels, Calais, Lyons, Marseilles and Paris.

For holiday planning, the map highlights scenic routes and shows car ferry routes, along with ancient monuments, beaches, castles, cathedrals, national parks, ski resorts, theme parks, world heritage sites, and many other places of interest.
