In destination marketing, inspiring travel interest requires providing immersive visual previews. Regional tourism boards, state heritage departments, and eco-resort associations use 360° virtual tours to showcase historic forts, pristine beaches, wildlife sanctuaries, and UNESCO heritage monuments. Interactive 360 tours allow global travelers to explore destinations virtually, driving increased physical tourist visits and hotel bookings. In this industry guide, we explore tourism 360 marketing solutions.
