Paris Summer festival guide 2013 from the Short break market

DEAL, U.K. - June 7, 2013 - PRLog -- As the great weather arrives it makes sense to plan your holidays and Delpech Travel Promotions pass on some tips about where to go and how to get the most from your break.

It is worth noting that during popular festivals it can be quite hard getting space in hotels and arranging travel. Sites like http://www.shortbreakmarket.co.uk are able to take the strain out of booking and can advise on availability and the best times to travel.

Choosing late departure times from the UK can save a substantial amount on your booking and it can sometimes be easier to get a hotel room if you are making a booking for a few extra nights.

Paris is a popular destination with tourists and is considered to be the world's city of romance. During summer the city comes alive with many brightly coloured and diverse festivals tapping into a rich seam of cultural heritage.

The Paris Plages is a novel event held this year from 20 July to the 18th August. Three areas of France are transformed into beaches!
