AO Tourism Goes Mobile!

At the beginning of February aotourism.com went mobile! We now have a fun, easy to use and very helpful mobile website for all of our visitors. You can browse through restaurants, shopping, nightlight, things to do and events in the area all in one place! This mobile site is GPS oriented so it will show you directions, photos and everything you need to know about.... EVERYTHING!

Just go to aotourism.com from your phone and you will be directed to our mobile site. Want to visit the page directly? The web address is http://m.aotourism.com. 

What's next? Why an AO Tourism app of course. It's in the works!
