Automobile clubs in Europe
Hi All;
I am a member of CAA (same as AAA in America). Does anyone know if there are associations in France, Spain or Switzerland who will honour my CAA cards with maps and guides? Thanks in advance. Lee |

I did, but the ladies in the location had no ideas. They suggested the
interenet. Any help would be appreciated. Lee |

Not sure what this AIT is. Anyway, the TCS website has good information. I'm not sure the TCS provides maps like one would get from C/AAA. I've never seen this offered but maybe I don't read the documents they send me close enough. |

Lee My experience is limited to AAA and Swiss Touring Club and already a few years old, but I doubt providing maps the way AAA does is part of the touring club services here in Europe. At best, some maps are sold at special prices. Swiss Touring Club www.tcs.ch for example is providing a large number of services to club members, such as insurances, travel arangements, discount agreements for a few other services, road information, help on the road in case of car/bike problems but I have never seen in their offices free maps and tourist guides as friends used to get from their AAA office |

The Spanish club is RACE (www.race.es) they are members of ARC, but have no idea of what will you get. There is also the RACC (Catalonia Automobile Club www.racc.es) that is actually bigger than RACE. Hope it helps, J. |

You should be able to get maps from the AAA before you leave. |

Michelin makes good maps, and has rather good regional atlases. ************* DAVE HATUNEN ) ************* * Tucson Arizona, out where the cacti grow * * My typos & mispellings are intentional copyright traps * |
