Guide du Routard Travel Guides

Since 1973, the Guide du Routard has been the trusted companion of independent travellers - France's most iconic travel guide series, and a rite of passage for anyone who prefers real encounters to tourist traps. Published by Hachette, the collection built its name on authenticity: field-tested recommendations, honest advice and local know-how that turns a trip into a genuine adventure.

At Cartovia, we bring together the complete collection - from every corner of France to destinations across the globe. Regional getaways (Brittany, the French Riviera, the Dordogne…), far-flung journeys (Japan, Peru, Morocco, Argentina…), cycling routes and phrasebooks: whatever your next departure, you'll find the ideal guide to plan it.

Please note: Guides du Routard are published in French only.

The Routard is one of the most frequently updated series around, with most destinations revised every year.
