did something similar in germany in 2006

4 people in a car, we had about 2 weeks over there, staying in campsites, nothing really booked in advance. didn't actually get to many games, but visited nuremberg, dortmund, hamburg (via a brief excursion on a train), cologne, kaiserslautern, watched lots of games in pubs/fan parks, bumped into Cafu (the non-norfolk one) in the street, had a great time.

i reckon going to every single venue would be bit much, you might enjoy it more if you take it a bit easier and just base yourself in a town for a few days and then move on

If i were heading there i'd certainly look at spending a good few days in the Lens/Lille area, and then also in St Etienne/ Lyon. Those pairs of venues are so close you could easily base yourself nearby and soak up a few games (if you can get tickets) and the atmosphere in the towns without having to do much schlepping about

2 stadiums in paris as well of course, but might be more fun to visit the smaller cities that will get overrun (hopefully in a good way) by the fans

you might also want to avoid the areas where England are playing. depending on your sensibilities
