The intentions of Angers town hall to increase the number of tourists in the city has room to apply. The loca professionnals are worry about the low level of the frequentation of tourists in Angers. The explaination is obvious : the gloomy weather over the city since the beginning of July is the origin of this lack of interest. Consecuently, one of the aims of a new policy in tourism would be to free that activity from the meteorological evolution.
But such a move would need to devise a policy which could be implemented all year long. But that cannot be improvised. A few weeks ago, when the first visitors arrived from London to Marcé with the inaugural flight it was noticed that no bus service had been planned between the airport and down town... At the same time, the bikes for rent located in front of the Angers railway station have difficulties to find customers.
So the city and its tourism bureau should work on a project to attract tourists for short stayings all year long. That relies on the combination of points of interest. Within a few weeks, Angers will display the 2012 edition of Les Accroches-Coeurs which relies on the widening petiton for the return to Angers of the UK crown jewels. At the same time, the royal home of a part of the Plantagenet dynasty. For a first try, professionnals and officials could devise weekends for people interested by the English part of French history.
