With the aim to give potential visitors a ‘feel’ for the province before they even visit, the Eastern Cape Parks and Tourism Agency has recently developed 15 interactive virtual tourism platforms of unique Eastern Cape experiences.
The experiences are even further enhanced when paired with virtual reality goggles and controllers where users can experience a full 360 degree immersive and interactive tour.
The tours can be accessed from anywhere in the world where there is internet connectivity. They can also be used for educational purposes and help those with disabilities to immerse themselves in various experiences that would not be normally accessible.
The 15 experiences and attractions are: a Segway Tour; a Kayak and Lilo excursion; Sandboarding in Sundays River; an Ocean Safari; the Donkin Reserve; Addo Elephant National Park; Giraffe Safari; Valley of Desolation; Nelson Mandela Museum; Steve Biko Museum; Hole in the Wall; Hluleka Provincial Nature Reserve; Madonna and Child Waterfall; Baviaanskloof World Heritage Site and The Owl House.
These attractions and locations were strategically chosen to offer a mix of adventure, nature, marine and historical experiences with a wide geographical spread to be representative of most of the Eastern Cape’s tourism regions.
