Virtual Reality for the Tourism Industry

Businesses operating within the travel industry has been especially quick to adopt virtual reality technology and for good reason. Typically, their customers are looking to purchase experiences, rather than products, and virtual reality offers an effective way for marketers to give them a taste of what they can expect.

Travel customers usually require lots of information before they book a hotel room. This may, for instance, require them to read descriptions, view images, look at videos, read customer reviews or seek opinions on social media. Through intelligent use of virtual reality, however, this process can be shortened significantly.

Boosting traveller confidence?

"Some, however, believe the benefits of VR in travel might be felt much sooner. They include Miguel Flecha, a Madrid-based travel and hospitality expert for the multinational consulting firm Accenture.
He thinks that as restrictions ease in the next few months, VR will be a vital tool in helping familiarise travellers with a new environment and help slowly rebuild consumer confidence."

What is a Virtual Travel Boutique?

According to the latest issue of the UNWTO World Tourism Barometer, International tourist arrivals (overnight visitors) fell by 72% in January-October 2020 over the same period last year, curbed by slow virus containment, low traveller confidence and important restrictions on travel still in place, due to the COVID-19 pandemic

The decline in the first ten months of the year represents 900 million fewer international tourist arrivals compared to the same period in 2019, and translates into a loss of US$ 935 billion in export revenues from international tourism, more than 10 times the loss in 2009 under the impact of the global economic crisis. (source UNWTO)

As a response to the pandemic, we decided to offer the travel and touirsm industry the capacity to create Virtual Travel Boutique equipped with the latest technologies to stay connected with the travellers - increase trust to travel again and be prepared for the "New Normal".

Your Virtual Travel Boutique is your personal business space where you can put all essential informations and get in touch with the travellers. It is very easy to set up and accessible internationally.

Online conference

Reconnect with the travellers

it is not so easy to go and visit your travel agency, Tourism Board office or even speak directly with the tour guide.

With most of the country still under lockdown or heavy restriction we thought it is easier to bring the industry to the travellers with help of online conference services. 

As it is live online, we can get all the answers to the questions and probably more.
