Another factor that has boosted tourism in France is accessibility. The country has excellent air connectivity with several direct flights from different parts of the world.
In addition, the internal transportation system is efficient and allows tourists to move around the different regions with ease.
Whilst Spain is still a hugely popular tourist destination, the growing interest in France as a complete and diverse tourist destination could see it topping the list of countries likely to receive the most tourists.
