Rotorua's Visitor Safety Group launched a new fold-out pocket guide at the Holiday Inn this week designed to help keep the city's visitors safe.
Rotorua District Council community safety projects officer Linda Johnston said the handy wallet-sized brochure
included safety tips, travel guides, a map of the central city
and other useful information.
"It's designed so that visitors will find the information easy to follow and useful, and will keep it on-hand at all times.''
Funding from ACC and Treasure Rotorua contributed to the printing of 14,000 of the brochures. Copies are available from the City Focus, the i-SITE information centre, local accommodation providers and Hertz car rentals.
"We're also looking at ways of going electronic and linking the guide online to major events. A lot of visitors come to Rotorua for big events like Raggamuffin but stay with friends and family. By providing a link on the event's ticketing or information page more people will have access to the information contained in the brochure,'' Ms Johnston said.
