Time to get from Calais to Annecy?

[Archie]

Hi All
We are planning on having a few nights around Annecy on the way to the Italian lakes in July as I reckon we can just about get there in a day from Calais.
Google maps says 7.25 hrs (so nearer 9 hrs with a few stops), can anyone confirm that the Google timescale is realistic?

9-10 hrs with stops sounds about right.

Traffic in and around Annecy can be very sluggish in high summer.

Lovely town Annecy.

9-10 hours with stops is spot on.

We've done it twice now.
