Enhancing Websites with Virtual Tours

VIRTUAL TOURS, PANORAMIC IMAGERY & AERIAL FOOTAGE

We’re always looking for new ways to make websites more engaging and memorable. This is why we now offer virtual tour services in conjunction with Virtual Tour 3D by Site Surveying Services and Tri-Tech.

Virtual Tour 3D is an immersive experience which instantly transports your clients to your business and guides them through your space. Using cutting-edge technology, it introduces the innovative concept of a digital twin—a realistic, interactive 3D replica of your physical space. This offers far more than static photos or basic 360° tours ever could.

After capturing the tour we embed the tour into your website. We seamlessly link external panoramic images to the internal aspects of the tour, adding interactive features such as hotspots, links, videos and photos to provide additional context and engagement. We also brand the tour in line with the website, so it fits in seamlessly.

From building credibility, and increasing accessibility to driving more online traffic, there are endless benefits of adding a virtual tour to your website.

MOORLAND SCHOOL

Our virtual tour of Moorland School is an example of how valuable virtual tours are as marketing tools. Research shows that parents value a welcoming, supportive environment where their children will feel safe. While photos offer a glimpse of facilities, they often fail to capture a school’s unique atmosphere.

 Combining aerial views of their beautiful grounds in the Ribble Valley with internal panoramic imagery of classrooms, common spaces, and boarding facilities, the tour gives a sense of life at Moorland. This is particularly important as Moorland is a boarding school, where students and families are not just choosing a place to learn but also a home. 

One of the interesting elements of this tour is the addition of photograph hotspots that link to the places where the photos were taken. This allows viewers to see the spaces being used by students and staff and get an even greater insight into school life. We also added elements such as videos and links to parts of the website, which makes it not just a tour but a more interactive prospectus.

For international students and those living further afield, the virtual tour will be an invaluable tool. This online experience makes the school accessible to a wider audience, allowing them to explore Moorland School from anywhere in the world.

GLUSBURN INSTITUTE

It was lovely to work with the team at Glusburn Institute to create a virtual tour of the historic Grade II listed building. The space now functions as a Community and Arts Centre, offering a vibrant programme of live music, theatre, film nights, and arts and wellbeing classes. It also hosts a Community Wellbeing Hub, providing a welcoming space for connection and support.

The tour combines external 360-degree drone footage with walkthrough internal views of key spaces like The Auditorium, The Chapel, and The Baths Hall. This is particularly useful for people looking to book these spaces for an event or activity, as they can truly get an insight into the space in an unmatched level of detail.

To enhance the experience, we’ve added interactive info tags throughout the tour, offering historical insights, photos of past events, and quick links for easy booking.

This immersive tool is not only visually engaging but also a powerful marketing asset. It offers Glusburn Institute a unique way to showcase its facilities and attract a broader audience, encouraging more people to visit, book spaces, and support this treasured community initiative. We’re excited to see how it helps promote and grow their presence both locally and beyond.
