Where can I get a map this late for Provence?
 
We're heading out to Provence - to Nice, then driving up to the Luberon and then to St. Remy and down to Aix-en-Provence. I'll be driving and I don't have a great sense of direction.

Which map/s should I get and where can I get them this late. We leave Saturday. I know, but lots of things had to come first.

Also, some folks have mentioned getting a GPS system - those devices that help one find one's way around. I'd LOVE to have one of those for this trip. Is such a thing available in English for these areas?

Thank you in advance for your help.

You did not say where you live. If in the US, order tonight from Amazon or B&N and get the speedy delivery..

Buy it in Provence for heaven's sake.

Buying the maps in Provence is a good idea, but try to get them before you get to the next area you're visiting. We've found that once there maps weren't always available because the supply was sold out. So when you're in Nice--and the map of Nice you can get at a gas station is very handy--look for the Michelin maps for the other regions you'll be visiting.

Sorry, I can't help with the map, but just had to tell you that I read your title quickly and thought it said, "Where can I get a man this late...?" :-d

We all need to get different things for a trip!
