What is a virtual tour?

A virtual tour is a simulated first-person experience of a real-world setting, wherein the viewer is able to explore the surrounding area by viewing a selection of 360-degree panoramas. These panoramas are accomplished by stitching multiple still shots together, thereby producing a single, uninterrupted view of the spot in question.
