Tourist Office of Rennes — Attraction in Rennes

Let me start with saying that Rennes is beautiful and worth a visit. But the tourist office is one of the worst I have ever experienced. At the airport there is a booth with no material at all.

In town the tourist office appeared to have moved to a new destination near Place St Anne (1 Rue St Malo). Bit out of the way for everyone, It is 25 min walk from the railway station.
