Visit Aurora Launches New Website

Visit Aurora has launched a new, interactive website!  Have you had the chance to check it out yet??  If not, finish reading this and then go check it out!

Visit Aurora has been working with TIG Global, a company that assists the travel industry with exceeding their online marketing goals.  They came up with the design and functionality of the site!  Here is a great article to read about the launch.

We wanted to go over a couple of our favorite sections of the site so that you know what you're looking for when you get there!

One of the coolest things about this site is the BOOK YOUR TRIP HERE widget on the homepage (also found under PLACES TO STAY).  It works by placing the dates in which you're planning to visit Aurora and hit Book Now.  Aurora hotels will pop up and give you the average rate of all of the nights you are planning on staying.  This is a great online tool that allows you to book directly with the hotel!

Another great feature is PLACES TO EAT.  Are you craving Russian? Thai? Filipino? Ethiopian? Maybe you didn't know you were craving them until right now!  You can search on this page for any type of cuisine that you want AND search in the part of Aurora you'll be visiting!  So, let's say you're visiting University Hospital and a craving for a burrito hits you.  Here's what you do... go to VisitAurora.com and search for Mexican cuisine in the Anschutz/Art District.  And Bingo... 28  Mexican restaurants just down the street from you!

The last feature we'd like to chat about is our EVENTS CALENDAR.  If you go here, you can see everything that is going on in the community.  Everything from what's happening at the Fox to a trout tournament at the Aurora Reservoir to Coyote Watch Training at the Morrison Nature Center.  Another great part is that YOU can submit an event yourself and pending Visit Aurora approval, we'll get it live on the calendar!

Alright, you've had your briefing, now go look for yourself!  Write us back to tell us what you love about the site!
