Hi shropshiretan, I`m not sure if it counts as a must see but if you have children with you it might be worth planning a meal stop at the services with the giant chicken https://www.lefrancophoney.com/the-big-chicken/ It always amused our kids when they were small and even this winter driving past (without the kids) I took a photo to share on whats app with them (now grown up and all over the world) It will always be a talking point in our family and a trigger for conversations full of happy memories!

Do you have an idea where in the Alps you are going? It might help narrow down the "must see" places.

Both Troyes and Beaune are worth a look

Yup, Beaune is not to be missed. We go to the Alps at least once a year and Beaune is our preferred overnight stop. Good parking in the centre and the Leclerc has the best wine selection we've found in France.

Yes, all those...plus the GrandePlace at Arras, the old town at Laon, a diversion to Epernay, the museum at Chatillon sur Seine, the Dukes' Palace at Dijon, several Burgundy villages, and the scenic route over the Juras if the sun is shining up there. ....
