(EMAILWIRE.COM, October 27, 2009 ) London has opened up a brand new visitor centre to cater to lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) tourists visiting the city - the Gay Tourist Office welcomed its first visitors to the Soho base at the end of last week and offer tailored information about gay events, activities and general tourist tipsÂ…
Following the trend of other European cities, the city of London has opened the doors to its first gay tourist office.
The centre, which is located at 30 Lisle Street, aims to provide a welcoming atmosphere in which to offer LGBT-specific information about the capital. It is the first office of its kind and hopes to support LGBT work all over the country, as well as supporting events and activities in London.
Centre Director Shaun Newport said that London has the best LGBT life in London. The Dutch capital of Amsterdam opened its first gay tourist information centre last month, and LGBT tourists planning to visit the capital can order a special gay Amsterdam information kit for free.
At the new Lisle Street centre in London, both foreign visitors and Britons will also be able to book tickets for London events and activities at the centre.
As well as the latest on gay London, the office will provide general tourist information on the city of London.
Mr Newport said, “Whether you have been here a lifetime, or have just stepped off the tube for the first time, we will give you advice on getting around.
“We want to show that London's exciting LGBT life is the best in the world.
“We will show off what our city has to offer to local, national and international visitors, as well as to Londoners old and new.
“The community has responded enthusiastically, lauding the centre's arrival. We have been too long without one,” he added.
You can find out more about the centre by visiting its website at www.gaytouristoffice.co.uk.
