10 Most Beautiful Villages in France Accessible Only by Car

These quintessential small towns are pristine thanks to their isolation

In the early 1900s, French brothers Édouard and André Michelin of the Michelin tire company started compiling restaurants and hotels in a guide as a way to entice people to venture farther, giving stars to places worth the drive. Today their rating system is the gold standard for restaurants, proving they were right about road tripping France. These are some of the most beautiful villages to stop at along the way:

  1. Mont Saint-Michel
  2. Saint-Émilion
  3. Saint-Paul de Vence
  4. Gordes
  5. Conques
  6. Vézelay
  7. Pérouges
  8. Rocamadour
  9. Saint-Jean-de-Luz
  10. Bonifacio

From Saint-Émilion to Rocamadour, these quintessential small towns are pristine thanks to their isolation and a delight for any traveler with a set of wheels.
