Microlights and PFA homebuilt permits can both fly to France pretty much without restriction
Absolutely.
But it's probably worth adding, for the avoidance of doubt, that the rules are different for each country, and you must check the rules for every country you intend to either overfly or land in. The French are very good in this respect, as Genghis says, with no extra red tape to get in your way. The only other country I have any first-hand experience of is Belgium, where you will have to pay a small fee for a 1-year permit to take your non-CofA aircraft into or over their airspace.
