VR and AR for travel

[georgiajoan]

I cannot go many places in the world I would love to see, from the Vatican to the mountains, to macho pichu and pyramids. I do not have the funds nor physical ability for long distances. So I would love to have these places available to see as though I was there, but all of VR and AR seems to be aimed at gaming. And some in more technical areas like medicine and flight simulators etc.
can anyone tell me what is happening on the travel front. Are there headsets, and as importantly good apps to buy to see amazing scenery in the world?
I wish I more would have an episode on this topic.

Thanks.

I agree we need more natural beauty apps

For now you can download Google Street View for VR. It has most of the National Parks for wonder-us viewing

This!

Depending on your platform, there ARE a few destination apps, as well as VR content aggregation apps such as Full Dive, Within, Gala 360 & Jaunt VR.

Curiosity Stream would be AWESOME for VR.
