About the author

Le Guide Vert est un livre faisant partie d'une collection de guides touristiques, fondée en 1926 par Michelin, qui met l'accent sur la découverte du patrimoine naturel et culturel des régions.

Il est complémentaire aux cartes Michelin ou de l'IGN, pour renseigner les touristes souhaitant voyager et découvrir une région, plusieurs villes ou un pays, en indiquant les principaux endroits caractéristiques intéressants à visiter, et circuits à effectuer, s'adjoignant elles-mêmes depuis quelques années au GPS.

Il peut aussi s'associer au guide rouge gastronomique et hôtelier Michelin.

Having used many travel guides in the past. the Michelin Green Guides are now my go to guide when planning a trip. Their ratings (Interesting, 1*, 2*, 3*) are an accurate way of planning what to see and where to go. The descriptions of places are informative but concise.
As importantly, unlike online sites which either work off commission or can be gamed by bots, Michelin's brand gives confidence that the views about locations are independent and unbiased.
We never start a trip without consulting a Michelin Guide.
