While travelling the Matilda Highway, you'll find this symbol your key to one of the most important and information rich resources you will find along the way.
The symbol, of course, stands for visitor information.
Almost every town has its own tourist information centre where the staff will be more than willing to help you with almost any enquiry. From local tours and sights to see to the whereabouts of the local doctor or mechanic, your tourist information centres are the places to visit first.
For your convenience, we include below a compilation of official information centres listed in alphabetical order of the town in which they reside. We also include council contact details for towns that do not have dedicated visitor information centres.
