Scottish welcome adds languages
The welcometoscotland.com website has become one of the first UK tourism site to be fully translated into French and German.
The website aims to offer potential visitors from Germany and France information on planning and booking a Scottish holiday.
The website's creator, entrepreneur David Hayes, hopes to establish the site as the first port of call for French and German speaking visitors who, according to figures from the Association of Scottish Visitor Attractions (ASVA), stay for a total of 4.9 million bed nights and spend £900m in Scotland each year.
Hayes said: "Nowadays, more and more people are researching and booking holidays on the internet, and it's important to have a tourism site which is user-friendly. The icing on the cake is that the site is written in the visitor's mother tongue".
