What is a 360° virtual tour?
An interactive set of panoramic images of a real place. Visitors can look in every direction and move from one point to the next on a phone, tablet or computer, without installing an app.
How does a 360° virtual tour work?
We capture panoramic images at chosen points in your space and join them into a tour. Visitors drag or swipe to look around and tap to move between points. The tour opens from a link, so it can sit on your website or be shared on WhatsApp.
How much does a 360° virtual tour cost in Bhubaneswar?
It depends on the number of areas, the size of the space and extras such as information points or Google publishing. Share your business type and approximate area and we will send a quote within 48 hours. The consultation is free.
Which businesses benefit from 360° virtual tours?
Businesses where the physical space influences the decision: hotels, restaurants, cafés, gyms, salons, showrooms, offices, clinics, hospitals, schools, colleges, real estate, banquet halls and event venues.
Can hotels use 360° virtual tours?
Yes, hotels are one of the best fits. A tour can show each room category, the lobby, restaurant, pool, banquet and conference spaces, so guests and event planners can compare before they book.
Can restaurants use 360° virtual tours?
Yes. A tour shows the ambience and seating, helps groups choose where to sit, and lets people booking private dining or parties see the room first.
Can gyms and salons use 360° tours?
Yes. Gyms can show equipment and training zones to people deciding whether to join. Salons can show cleanliness, comfort and privacy to first-time clients.
Can the virtual tour be added to my website?
Yes. You receive a link and embed code that works on most websites. If Grown Turtle manages your website, we add the tour and check it on phones for you.
Can a 360° tour be used with Google Maps or Google Business Profile?
Selected 360° photos can be added to your Google Maps listing where Google supports it, and we can help with publishing. Google controls how imagery appears, reviews content against its policies and shows photos only once your Business Profile is verified. We can’t promise a higher ranking, and no one honestly can.
How long does a 360° virtual tour project take?
It depends on the size of the space and how quickly each area can be prepared. We agree the shoot date and the delivery date with you before work starts, and put both in your quote.
Do you provide 360° virtual tours outside Bhubaneswar?
Yes. We work across Odisha, including Cuttack, Puri, Sambalpur, Rourkela, Berhampur and Balasore. Travel and scheduling are confirmed in your quote.
What is included in a 360° virtual tour?
Planning, on-site capture, editing, the interactive tour with links between scenes, a shareable link and website embed code, and a handover. Information points, Google publishing support, still photos and short videos can be added, and we list everything in the quote.
Can hotspots and information points be added?
Yes. Hotspots can move visitors between scenes or show information such as a room name, a short description, a phone number or a booking link. We agree which ones are useful during planning.
Do I need to prepare my business before the shoot?
A little preparation makes a big difference: tidy each area, switch on all the lights, set blinds and curtains, put away personal items and paperwork, and keep the areas free of customers during the shoot. We send a short checklist before the visit.
