KC Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Hi We are arriving in Bergerac on holiday on 21 May - we have read that this is a national holiday. Can someone confirm if the hypermarkets will be open as usual this day? Thanks very much in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron Avery Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 The supermarkets may well be open but a lot of businesses and public offices, banks etc offices will not be open until the following Tuesday. This a "pont" weekend which is a long weekend holiday and the roads will be very busy going south on Thursday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
