Needs major changes to catch up with today’s visitors. Major music festival and excellent free walks completely missed
Kingston Visitor Information Centre的点评
点评:Needs to tell visitors about the very interesting local activities such as: the many excellent Jane’s Walks in Kingston the first weekend of May; and the HomeGrown Live Music Festival which returned for its 18th year the first weekend of May with dozens of short shows in various venues in Kingston.
Visitor centre was not aware of these high quality events. They need to be more proactive and not just hand out commercial brochures and promote boat tours and ghost walks.
This centre needs a shakeup in terms of mission and reaching out to see what is going on in Kingston that may truly interest visitors.
Note to city officials: take a look at how this high-profile tourist information centre can be improved. Look at downloadable mini-podcasts with history stories as is done in Torremolinos, Spain, and in many other places. Your tourists are more sophisticated today, it’s time to catch up.
翻译:需要向游客介绍当地一些非常有趣的活动,例如:五月第一个周末在金斯顿举办的众多精彩的简·奥斯汀徒步之旅;以及五月第一个周末回归的第十八届本土现场音乐节,届时金斯顿各处场地将上演数十场小型演出。
游客中心对这些高质量的活动并不了解。他们需要更加积极主动,而不仅仅是发放商业宣传册,推广乘船游览和幽灵之旅。
该中心需要对其使命和宣传方式进行彻底改革,以了解金斯顿有哪些真正能吸引游客的活动。
致市政官员:请考虑如何改进这个备受瞩目的旅游信息中心。可以借鉴西班牙托雷莫利诺斯和其他许多地方的做法,提供包含历史故事的可下载迷你播客。如今的游客更加成熟,是时候与时俱进了。
