THE ‘TOURISM SCOOTER‘ IS ON THE LOOSE ON REUNION
(Posted 04th December 2015)
On Wednesday this week did the Inter-communal Tourist Office (ITO) West inaugurate its new mobile information kiosk in the form of a scooter. By mid-December will tourism consultants from the regional ITO West crisscross the roads of their district to meet the tourists in markets, along the beaches and in places of interest. With access to information facilitated by the instant internet connectivity have physical visits to the island’s tourist information offices reduced by half in recent years. With this in mind has the Western tourism office decided to instead go out to meet tourists with in this original and unusual way by using a branded scooter.
Specially designed for the purpose is the new roaming information office aiming to better facilitate and inform travelers by going to meet them outside their hotels and resorts. Designed as a tricycle is the scooter an eyecatching and yet functional tool with a reception counter, brochure holders and of access to the West OTI’s website and in particular the online booking service. Branded in the colors of the OTI West tourism information office can the scooter not be mistaken for anything else but a mobile tourism information office. Staff will travel to and through the open market of St. Paul every Friday from mid -December onwards. The mobile office will also be present at major events which take place in this part of Reunion and of course along the beaches of the west coast of the island.
