Alcazar Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 .............via Paris or not?And if via Paris, do folk recommend the A86 from the A1 to the a10, or another route?It'll be off the Zeebrugge from Hull ferry, so around midday Paris?Anyone recently done Lille-Paris and Paris-Vierzon for prices? TIA.Also, do I come THROUGH Lille on the autoroute, or try to avoid it?Alcazar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Bradford Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 Hi,The route that we normally take from Calais on a Sunday is A1 towards Paris then come off at jucntion £ I believe, the one signposted bordeaux. Follow signs for Bordeaux until you get to the A10 then follow signs for Orleans. That has been good for us on Sundays but delays any other day of the week. Good luck! We have now taken to traveloling via Rouen down the new A154. Might be a bit further, but you keep moving.Paul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcazar Posted September 18, 2005 Author Share Posted September 18, 2005 I've always done Rouen from Calais via A16 then A28.The reason I asked about Paris is that looking at a map, and coming from Zeebrugge, a straight line leads via Lille and Paris, but Calais-Boulogne-Rouen seems a LONG way round.Anyone else?Alcazar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alcazar Posted September 19, 2005 Author Share Posted September 19, 2005 Thanks, wife wants to, so I guess we'll give it a go. Over 100 miles of single carriageway N roads the other way, so it might be easier?Alcazar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teamedup Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 We have just done Zeebrugge / Hull. Remember that in Belgium Lille is often known as Rijsel and on some sign posts that is all that marked. We actually avoided Lille as we just followed the signs for Bruges. We tend to just follow the signs really.Have you done a viamichelin intinery, they are usually very good. TU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
