New tourist information service launched in Argyll

MSP for Argyll and Bute, Michael Russell, has officially opened a new VisitScotland information point in
Lochgilphead.
The i-point is situated in the town's Fyne Tackle shop and provides a solution for tourists looking for inspiration during their trips, following the closure last year of the VisitScotland information centre.
Michael Russell MSP said: It is a great pleasure and privilege to be asked to open this much needed facility. But it is here not just because it is needed but also because the local marketing group knew it was needed and showed great determination and enterprise in getting it established.
I am glad that the various partners have come together to make it happen because tourism is a vital industry for all of Argyll including its heart! Making sure that those who come here are welcome and informed not only improves their stay but makes them want to come back.
