tourist information

Traveler help desk

Tourist information refers to services, centers, or materials that help visitors navigate an unfamiliar place.

A tourist information center or office provides maps, brochures, and advice about local attractions, accommodations, and transportation.

We stopped at the tourist information booth to get directions to the museum.

The term also describes the content itself—details about sights, events, and amenities that travelers need to plan and enjoy their visits.
