1. La chouette boutiqueTourist Office
If there’s one address you should keep close to hand, this is it. The shop at thePau Tourist Office is a collection of stylish, meaningful objects with a real local flavour. There are some great ideas here: the “Eau de Pau” decanter, the Béarn tea towel by Tissages Moutet, the Planchot by Matthieu Claverie, as well as mugs, magnets, candles, snow globes, key rings, posters, books and other stickers in the colours of Pau.
Why is this a good idea?
Because here you’re giving more than just an object: you’re giving a little piece of Pau that you won’t find anywhere else.
2. Special for small budgetsAttention for less than €15
It doesn’t have to cost a lot of money to treat someone. If you’re looking for small pleasures with style, pick something for less than €15! A well-chosen mug, a local sweet, a magnet that makes you smile or an elegant little souvenir can be just the thing. It’s the perfect way to round off a bouquet, an outing or a lunch with a little extra attention.
What do we think?
Small gifts work even better when they accompany a shared moment.

3. The Gourmet PassFor gourmets
With the Pass Gourmand from the Tourist Office, you can enjoy a stroll between the town centre and the Halles, where the best craftsmen will help you discover our local specialities. Available in small or large versions, this Pass gives you a whole new way of tasting Pau: pick and choose, stroll around, discover and enjoy.
The little extra?
It’s not a gift to be put on a shelf. It’s a gift you can bite into.
4. Shopping tripIn the heart of the city
Shopping in Pau has all the charm of a city centre where you take your time. With its shop windows, cafés, good addresses and Halles, it’s already a pleasure to stroll around. For an easy way to give the gift of shopping, consider the Pau Commerces gift vouchers: valid in over 270 shops in the city centre, in denominations of €10, for 12 months. Fashion, decoration, beauty, culture, restaurants: the choice is wide and you can be sure she’ll love it!
Another advantage: some retailers also offer Parking Tickets, with up to 1? hours in the underground car park, 2 hours in the Beaumont car park or even half a day in the Place de Verdun.
Why does this work?
Because we’re not just offering something. We’re offering a break, freedom and a little convenience to boot.

5. Show ticketsTime for emotion
For mums who prefer emotions to objects, and who prefer living to unpacking… Slip her a ticket for a show! Think of the Tourist Office ticket office: shows, concerts, theatre, jazz and cultural events. It’s a great way to treat her to an evening out that she might not have given herself.
The winning combo:
Two tickets + dinner before (or after) the curtain-raiser.

6. Discovery breaksA stone's throw from home
Looking for a gift with a difference? Take a look at the breaks offered by the Tourist Office. Here’s an excellent way to offer an original break in Pau and the Béarn region, without getting bogged down in organisation, and to enjoy (re)discovering our local nuggets. Heritage, lifestyle, landscapes, gourmet delights, the heart of the city: these turnkey getaways bring together everything you love, at a great price.
A few ideas to highlight:
A romantic weekend away, a gourmet getaway, a heritage break or a holiday gift voucher to leave the date open.
7. Gourmet pleasuresEnjoy a good meal
There are some classics that can’t be beaten. A beautiful table, a lovely atmosphere, the pleasure of being together and talking, without looking at the clock: that’s a great idea for Mother’s Day! In Pau, opt for a light lunch or a leisurely dinner in one of our many restaurants.
Our advice from Pau:
Add a walk before or after to prolong the pleasure.

8. Visits and activitiesFollow the guide
What if the gift voucher was simply an experience? Thanks to the Tourist Office ticket office, you can offer affordable tours and activities, some as little as €4. Guided tours, discovering the city, activities for two or family outings: there’s something to please everyone without making life too complicated.
We’ll give it to you straight:
Memories to live by are often a step ahead.
9. Relaxation breakCalm, pleasure and small attentions
Sometimes, for a mum, the best gift isn’t an object or a busy schedule. It’s a moment when she doesn’t have to deal with anything and can just relax. A quiet lunch, a walk, a bit of shopping, a sweet treat to share: this Mother’s Day can be so simple, and yet so right on target.
Why is this idea so popular?
Because it puts the emphasis back on calm, pleasure and care.
