Once a tour has been published to Google (or created as a “Standalone Virtual Tour”) it can be embedded into your website.
Expedia Virtual Tours
We are an Expedia Virtual Tour Partner, authorized to publish photos and 360 panoramic images to Expedia.com and the Expedia’s network… to improve the online presence of your Hotel or Tourist Attraction and help you to showcase what you have on offer.
Expedia (which includes many global online travel brands within it’s portfolio including Expedia.com, Hotels.com, Hotwire.com, trivago, Venere.com, Classic Vacations, Travelocity, Orbitz, HomeAway and Wotif.) is a worldwide Travel Information and Booking Service.

How does it work?
We coordinate with you a suitable date/time to visit your hotel for a photoshoot. We take a series of photos at a number of different locations (to cover the areas you want to include). We then take all photos back to our studio and process them into a number of separate 360° Photos (panospheres) in a format that conforms with Expedia’s format standards. We then coordinate with Expedia to publish the photos to your Expedia Listing.
(note: we can also probably use these photos to create a Google Virtual Tour and /or a Standalone Virtual Tour.
