Lundi de Pâques

📣 Conseils aux voyageurs

France offers rich cultural experiences, from literary and artistic centers like Paris to picturesque villages, stunning mountainous, and coastal regions.

• Holidays are often linked to major Catholic feast days (e.g., Easter, Assumption of Mary).
• Plan trips around major holidays and school breaks (e.g., Christmas, Easter, Bastille Day) due to increased demand and costs.
• Some major public holidays, like New Year's Day (Jan 1), May Day (May 1), and Bastille Day (July 14), result in bank closures.
• Local and federal holiday calendars influence observed days, including Easter (Pâques) and Assumption of Mary (Assomption).
• Use polite greetings (Bonjour/Bonsoir) when dining and wait for staff direction to your table. Tipping is not mandatory, as many establishments include a service charge. Be mindful of local customs and the restaurant's service operations.
