FALLING FOR FRANCE
Mention France and one may conjure up thoughts of romance, high-fashion, gourmet cuisine, world-class wines – the list goes on and on. However, recently Americans may also conjure up thoughts of a much less positive nature. It is this reason that has prompted the French Government Tourist Board to specifically address the concerns of American travelers.

In a special message on their website, the FGTO Director USA emphasizes that "Americans have always been and will always be welcome in France", and cites articles in major publications like The New York Times which report "returning American visitors experienced no hostility". He invites readers to consult their testimonial page for first hand comments from recent American travelers to France.

You can read the message for yourself and find information about their "Let's Fall in Love Again" campaign offering special deals to Americans at: FGTO message
