I think you just touched on the issue. Navigating thru Paris (France, not Illinois or Arkansas LOL) with a cell phone vs. actual GPS device. The at-times spotty service and the refresh rates on a cell were sometimes horrible, so unless you anticipated the traffic splits, you missed the necessary turns. Not fun in rush hour traffic. Perhaps a dedicated GPS is the answer.
Well we have been to Europe 6 times in the last 10 years, and the dedicated GPS, with a larger screen (this is a key detail), up on the windshield, in the field of view, really works for me.

Sixth time to Le Man's, always used a phone for navigation, never a problem (except in 2016 when Brian's phone took us to Lake Como Dry Cleaners instead of Lake Como!)

You usually have to have the European maps installed.

This will be my 5th trip. Spend a few days in Paris. Usually walk or Uber. Then take the train to Le Mans. Usually walk or Uber.

3 purchased! It has been a life-long dream of my Dad to go to Lemans (as well as my son and I). I will be surprising him with a ticket soon....he will flip out. 3 generations coming.

Time to make plans.
Been 5 times and always took the train from Paris to Lemans and my rental car.

This time I'm driving all the way.
It's a blast to drive in France.
My cell GPS worked perfectly.
Just make sure its something like Verizon. STORMCATs suggestion.
