Tourist Attractions on TomTom

VisitBritain has signed a new deal with satellite navigation company, TomTom. Over 5,000 attractions, 17,000 hotels and 500 tourist information centres will be put on to the TomTom system.

Does that mean you might find yourself heading over a remote cliff in North Yorkshire if you plug in a route to Alton Towers?

Perhaps the system would be of use to three Norwegian tourists, who recently planned a holiday to the Greek island of Rhodes, but ended up in Rodez, south-west France, after misspelling the destination on an internet booking form. The trio were dismayed to find Rodez does not have any beaches.
