We were looking for a dynamic and visually-engaging virtual tour to showcase our cutting-edge marine research facilities at Plymouth Marine Laboratory. From the outset, it was a joy working with the Virtual Tour Experts and we are delighted with the result. The CMS is easy to use and the training was very well-structured and delivered. Their skills with the imagery are excellent and we’ve been very impressed with the quality of the visuals. A hugely beneficial aspect of working with the team was their keenness to make the tour the best it could be and they were very helpful in suggesting improvements based on their own expertise, adding much value to the project.
