Your first stop, whenever you visit a new city on vacation, should always be the visitor's bureau. In fact, you should be in contact with the visitor's bureau before you even leave, co-ordinating your visit and making note of where you can buy your bamboo diapers and what places there are to visit. When you're planning your visit to Birmingham, Alabama you should contact the Birmingham, AL Visitor and Convention Bureau. And if you're in Birmingham right now, head on over.
The business of the visitor's bureau is to attract tourists to the area. As such the more successful breed of visitor bureau will contain all the latest happenings in and around the area in question. It should be able to tell you where all the events for your nutrient management services conference are taking place and when. It should be able to tell you where you can park for each event, and indeed, where you can rent a car in the first place.
The Birmingham Visitor and Convention Bureau can do all these things for you and more. Just visit http://www.birminghamal.org/ to see all the different guides they have on various subjects that can help you plan your day or even your whole vacation. They can give you a free map so you can find the auto dealer flag you need to win your scavenger hunt and give you a fishing guide that points out all the best spots to make a spectacular catch.
If you want to find out more information about Birmingham area activities and attractions, you can do so on the website, by ordering their brochures, or by calling them on the phone. For instance, they would know if there was any new SRED going on at the university and what new animals there were at the Birmingham Zoo. They can also provide you with special coupon books that will save you money on your admission tickets and tell you when each attraction will be open.
For those who are planning a family reunion, destination wedding, or a group trip to make use of a Valentines gift certificate, contact with the Birmingham Visitor and Convention Bureau is essential. Since they know all the hotels (and can sometimes get you special rates at their recommended hotels) they can make it a lot easier and cheaper for you to decide where to stay and what to do and to make all your bookings.
