A virtual tour is a simulation of an existing place, usually made out of a sequence of videos or still images. It could also include other multimedia elements, such as music, sound, text and many more. The good thing about virtual tours is that you can take a tour of almost any place in the world and stay in the comfort of your own home. Also, if you are planning on going on a holiday and you want to know if a place is worth going to you could just google it and see what it is like in 3D. On the other hand, taking virtual tours of places could mis lead you. For example if you are wanted to look at a house, it could be out dated. That goes for almost any place. Another problem with virtual tours is that you could not get the full idea, this could also mis lead you.
My opinion of virtual tours: I think it is a awesome way of seeing what places all around the world looks like without having to spend a dime. I have always wanted to stand on top of the Eiffel tower and with virtual tours I was able to see what it would be like without having to move a muscle. In conclusion I think that virtual tours are really cool but like anything they have ups and downs.
