You might also want the Michelin green guide to the Côte d'Azur if you'll be in that area.

Michlein maps... but I've used the Orange one. And for someone who is rarely, if ever, behind the wheel of a car (as driver or passenger), never got lost. Sorry, we did in the vineyards of the Chateauneuf du Papes... but what a wonderful place to be lost. Until, it was time to "get outta there."

I don't drive but am the map reader on the road. I've used both yellow and green. The green is easier to use but my favorite is a carte régionale for Provence-Alpes-Cote D'Azur, an IGN, institut geographique national map that i don't remember where in Provence I biought it. It shows me where the tiniest hamlets are.
