WEB SITES offer an encyclopaedia of information for holidaymakers planning their trips to France, with facts, photos and maps available at any hour of the day or night. The French tourist office in Britain, Maison de la France, has its own website,
www.fr-holidaystore.co.uk providing lots of regional and travel information as well as special offers from tour operators.
www.franceguide.com is Maison de la France's main web site with a diary of events around the country, special dossiers of activity holidays, sporting, cultural and unusual breaks, as well as links to many local and regional sites.
Using the search engine

The site
www.tourisme.fr also connects directly to many regional Web Pages.
