We are traveling as a group of 8 in September through Belgium and France.
Following our stay in Mont St Michel, we will drive to Bordeaux, which is approx. a 7-hr drive.
What are the pros/cons for splitting the drive up into 3.5 hours and stay in the Loire Valley overnight, versus driving directly? We will be moving a lot on this trip, so another one night stay is a con. We love wine from the Loire Valley, a big plus.
For those of us who are in favor of stopping, where a good place to stay?
