People planning a trip to the Vendee region of France this summer can meet some of its residents in person in London on May 5th-8th.
While issues such as booking tickets, arranging
travel insurance and packing may occupy many people's minds ahead of a holiday, some people may head away without really knowing what awaits at their destination.
However, the Vendee Tourist Board is inviting people to "step into the world of Vendee" at a special party thrown at London's Westfield shopping centre.
"Through this London visit, the Vendee aims to reinforce the special relationship that makes its territory such a favourite with British holidaymakers," the French Government Tourist Office adds.
At the event, Vendee representatives will be on hand to provide tasty treats conveying the region's gastronomic heritage, as well as to discuss its culture in general.
Last year, more than a quarter of all tourists who headed to the Vendee region were British, leading to UK residents having a special place in the hearts of residents there, according to the Vendee Tourist Board.
InsureandGo can provide travel insurance to help you plan your getaway.
