In a video circulating on social media, Mr Macron is seen walking up to a barrier on a trip to Tain-l'Hermitage outside the city of Valence.
A man slaps Mr Macron in the face before officers quickly move in. The president, meanwhile, is rushed away.
Two men have been arrested in the wake of the incident, according to French media.
As the president is slapped, the words "Down with Macron-ism" are shouted.
Politicians have swiftly denounced the incident.
Far-left leader Jean-Luc Mlenchon tweeted his "solidarity with the President" immediately after the slap.
President Macron is currently conducting a tour of France and had just visited a hotel school in Tain-l'Hermitage. His visit to the area was set to continue on Tuesday, officials said, with a trip to a vocational institute for 25-30 year-olds.
The president's visit comes on the eve of a major step for French bars and restaurants, which will be able to reopen to indoor customers after seven months of closure. France's overnight curfew is also being pushed back on Wednesday from 21:00 to 23:00.
Ha I like how it looks like he instinctively tried to go after the coward...who I am assuming is a Muslim radical.aggiehawg said:#Macron se fait gifler en direct de #Tain pic.twitter.com/tsXdByo22U

Such incivility is a part of the times in which we live, unfortunately. And in France, violent demonstrations and protests are almost a sport since they happen so frequently.aggie93 said:
While it is hard not to chuckle, that's inexcusable and counterproductive and that person assaulted him and deserves the prison sentence he will get.
Got to love a fully vaccinated guy outdoors wearing a mask though who thinks it's necessary to wear a mask but shaking hands is fine. Great leadership there.
Might be the continuing covid restrictions. Get between the French and their wine at the cafes for a long time amd they get testy.annie88 said:
Well he looks like an idiot wearing a mask outside but that's not OK that the guy did that.
Wonder what he is so angry about?
He said something to him, anyone speak French?
