About #Explore:New Zealand
#Explore New Zealand is an innovative and ambitious project that aims to redefine the way people discover and experience New Zealand's rich cultural heritage, stunning architecture, and vibrant hospitality through the power of virtual reality (VR). As part of this initiative, viewers from around the world are invited to embark on immersive virtual journeys that offer a deeper, more interactive connection with the country’s most iconic buildings, museums, restaurants, and accommodations.
The primary goal of #Explore New Zealand is to enhance the country’s tourism by offering a full-immersion experience that allows potential visitors to explore New Zealand in unprecedented detail. Through VR, viewers can step inside and walk through some of New Zealand’s most unique and historically significant buildings, such as the Hawke’s Bay Opera House, or the Pumphouse Theatre ,In Auckland, without leaving their living room. This virtual access to architectural landmarks and museums provides a rich cultural experience, allowing users to delve into New Zealand’s history and heritage in a fully immersive environment.
In addition to our cultural sites, #Explore New Zealand also brings the country’s renowned hospitality to life. Prospective diners can virtually walk through restaurants and venues before booking a table, getting a feel for the ambiance, layout, and even the view from their potential seat. This feature not only enhances the dining experience but also helps visitors make more informed choices, ensuring they find the perfect spot to suit their tastes.
Similarly, the project offers travellers the opportunity to explore accommodations in detail before they even arrive. Through VR, users can virtually tour hotels, boutique lodges, and vacation rentals, allowing them to experience the space, amenities, and surrounding environment before making a booking. This immersive preview helps to set accurate expectations and provides peace of mind, ensuring that their chosen accommodation meets all their needs.
#Explore New Zealand is more than just a tool for promotion; it is a bridge between the digital and physical worlds, creating a seamless connection between potential visitors and the experiences that await them in New Zealand. By leveraging the latest in VR technology, this initiative not only showcases the country’s unique offerings but also invites the world to experience the magic of New Zealand in a way that is interactive, engaging, and truly unforgettable.

What is Full-Immersion,Virtual Reality?
Full - immersion virtual reality is created by using digital technology that allows viewers to experience an artificial environment as if it was the real world. In the case of Virtual Tourism New Zealand, we use advanced technology created by Matterport in the US to scan existing environments, which allows the viewer to experience everything from accommodation to historic buildings.
