Ai digital: Personalised Experience at Your Fingertips
The AI digital assistant, developed by RevitUp, is accessible through the official website visitfamagusta.com.cy as well as directly at ai.visitfamagusta.com.cy. It provides visitors with real-time information tailored to their individual needs, moving beyond generic internet searches.
As ETAP Famagusta explains, “From ‘smartphones’ and ‘smart devices’, we now move to intelligence—the ability of a digital assistant to understand, learn and adapt to each visitor’s needs, offering a truly personalised experience.” This reflects a significant shift in how tourism is approached, focusing on providing bespoke services to each traveller.
Comprehensive Information and Support
The digital assistant offers a plethora of features designed to enhance the tourist experience. It suggests activities, attractions, beaches, and events based on user preferences. Additionally, it provides practical advice such as museum opening hours, transport options, and directions via Google Maps. With support for 194 languages, the assistant acts as a personal guide available around the clock.
A Step Forward for Cypriot Tourism
ETAP Famagusta views this initiative as a vital step towards modernising the visitor experience and positioning Famagusta at the forefront of innovation within Cypriot tourism. The introduction of this AI tool complements existing resources such as an official website, a mobile application, and 360-degree virtual tours of key landmarks across the district.
