France
To say that France is a popular tourist destination would be grossly underplaying the facts. France has been the host to generations of European tourists for decades. And more recently has welcomed large numbers of visitors from far away destinations such as North America and more recently Asia.
France is in fact the most visited nation on the planet; more international tourists are heading for the charms of this wonderfully scenic country each year than any other, even eclipsing the popularity of Spain.
The reason that France is so much of an attraction is its huge variety of scenery, stunning ancient towns and villages like Orange, as well as it is classy coastal resorts such as Nice and Cannes.
The fact that France offers everything from Mediterranean beaches to first class skiing to some of the world’s most stunning rolling hills as well as being a haven for nature lovers, walkers and cyclists means that many tourists can enjoy several different kinds of holiday all rolled into one.
The accommodation available is also is as varied as the scenery stretching from the very best of five star luxury hotels in Paris and St Tropez. To humble, and not so humble, Gite accommodation, found across the entire country. As well as a multitude of first-class country facilities from the mountain’s to the forests and along the never ending stretches of golden beaches. You can also opt for stunning villa for the ultimate home away from home experience.
France really can offer every kind of holiday that will suit every taste from the most isolated country retreat to the heady nightlife of the Mediterranean resorts and everything in between. No wonder then that this is the world’s number one tourist destination.
