Visitor information kiosks operated by Abu Dhabi Tourism Authority (ADTA) in 34 destinations across the emirate have been upgraded with enhanced location maps, more information on hotels, tours and attractions and with a special �Send A Postcard Home' facility.

The new service - available in English, Arabic and German initially but with Italian and French to be added by the year end - will also be upgraded to allow users to have information sent to them by MMS.

"We envisage the postcard service - when people simply select the postcard they want and email it back home to family and friends being particularly popular," said Saeed Al Dhaheri, Visitor Information Manager, ADTA.

ADTA is also planning to install three lower-level kiosks which will be easier for the handicapped to use in the UAE capital's main shopping malls by the end of this year.
