My best tip: if you are going south, look into the trains from Paris. We drove there, whacked the car on the 12 o'clock train, got a cab to the airport and was in Nice, drinking a glass of wine by mid afternoon. The was ready to pick up in Nice at 12 the next day. We were in Florence for 3pm.
Definitely a nicer way to start the holiday than 3 days schlepping through the boring middle of France. Especially for a passenger.
They have changed - they now all go from Paris, but to different corners of France.
