Basil Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Yes good Aires and campsites at both those. If you have any interest in motor vehicles the Bugatti Museum at Mulhouse is outstanding. They allow a lot of hands on unlike UK car museums, son sat in a very early Bugatti formula one car (worth million Euro) was shown how to start an early saloon on a starting handle and went in a car roll over simulater (using a real car). My son and I spent a whole day in there, much to the disgust of our wives!! Certainly more entertaining than Shopping. Bas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmcclin Posted May 2, 2016 Author Share Posted May 2, 2016 Basil many thanks for the reply. That sounds great as i am a bit of a car fanatic. Would you be able to give me a bit more detail with regards to the sites and Aires you mentioned. Thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spospe Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 A pedantic point, but the museum in Mulhouse is called, "Cité de l'Automobile National Museum" and not the Bugatti museum (although they have many examples of Bugattis there) see: http://citedelautomobile.com/en/home The Aire that we used when visiting was the one in the car park at the Eco Musee d'Alsace (also in Mulhouse) for €6 including water and dumping. see: http://www.ecomusee-alsace.fr/fr/preparer-sa-visite/hotellerie-restauration-et-reception/193-hotellerie-restauration-reception edit to correct web address details Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
