Two types of addresses are referenced on Le Petit Futé website.

The addresses suggested by Internet users or professionals: they are clearly identified by the message "suggestion – no review of Petit Futé ". You will be able to discover other addresses but this time, it is without the guarantees of Le Petit Futé. It's up to you to judge and don't forget to share your experience with us!

The reviews of Petit Futé are prepared by our teams of writers. They are over 400 to be permanently on site in France and around the world and are responsible for selecting and testing different places. They are local authors who know their town, region or country very well.

Our readers have always shared their discoveries and experiences with us and thus contributed to enriching and updating the information gathered by our editors.

The performance of a site can evolve between two visits by our editors and that is why we want to allow members to give their opinion in real time in order to better guide our visitors. For the opinions to be useful, they are all subject to moderation before publication.
