Is it a Virtual Tour?

Is it a Virtual Tour?

Hi

OK – I am having a bit of a rant today! so bear with me.

When we compile a 360 Virtual Tour here, we do the FULL 360 including the Nadir and Zenith (top and bottom) which takes a little longer but really is not rocket science. It just involves a little matching etc, but as many clients have gone to expense to have nice flooring / carpeting, or an old building has aged oak beams or a fancy plastered ceiling, why should these features be missed? or covered by a label?

Also many so called 360 Virtual Tours only have a top to bottom range of about 100 – 120 degrees or 50 degrees above and below the horizon, which misses about 1/3 of the total Tour.

Although there are no hard and fast rules about what comprises a 360 Virtual Tour, its amazing what seems to pass as one!

Many potential clients, when initially broached about having a Virtual Tour, are quite negative and have been put off by exorbitant costs or poor quality VTs which they have seen or been quoted for and it can be difficult to turn around those negatives and give people confidence in the quality and cost effectiveness of our service.

But over 600 Virtual Tours later – we must be doing something right!

Virtual Tours and Ghosts

Virtual Tours and Ghosts

Hi

Now here’s a mystery………

Some time ago Richard did a Virtual Tour for an old hotel in Wales, and we are talking centuries old here!

Anyway, back at base we started to process the images and were quite taken aback at a particular shot of the Bar area. Richard is an old sceptic, but even he could not explain away this one!

So here is the image, take a good look at the ‘Specials’ board which has been wiped clean. Can you see the three heads?? The more you look the more the details become apparent. The Hotel is reportedly haunted by the way!

Spooky or what!

Virtual Tours in the Wonderful Lake District

Virtual Tours in the Wonderful Lake District

Hi
Well….. for anyone who is considering visiting the Lake District, we can thoroughly recommend one of the Cottage companies we work with up there.

Lakeland Hideaways are based up in Hawkshead, which apart from being a lovely place in its own right, is a good central base from which to discover the highlights of this spectacular area. They have some fabulous places to stay and can guide the intrepid explorers into the most spectacular locations. Gary and Ruth, along with their staff are all people with an excellent knowledge of what is around and about.

Some of the cottage locations just take your breath away, and Virtual Tours are always a pleasure to undertake in the Lakes.

We are so lucky to live in a land of such diverse beauty and interest. Long may the UK Tourism industry flourish in these times of uncertainty around travel abroad.
