Some college students and I are driving through France! We need some advice on the best cities, restaurants, etc. in southern France that are worth seeing! Is it worth driving in southern France?
Thanks!

Start at https://www.ricksteves.com/europe/france or get Rick Steves very handy Provence & French Riviera guidebook. A car is great for exploring smaller towns away from the coast, but many coastal towns and larger cities are also served by train and/or bus. If you have more specific questions after doing some research, then you could re-post those in this forum.

Just a note about driving...are you renting a car? You say "college students and I". Are you also a college student? Be aware that there are minimum ages for renting a car...for most rental companies it's 24.

There are some places that you can rent under 24, but there can be a surcharge.
It is a great way to see the area.
