What is a 360\u00b0 Google Maps virtual tour?

A 360\u00b0 Google Maps virtual tour is an immersive walkthrough of your business \u2014 captured as a series of 360\u00b0 photos and published directly to your Google Business Profile, Google Maps and Street View. Visitors navigate from room to room in their browser, exactly as if they were there.

How long does a 360\u00b0 virtual tour shoot take?

A typical small business shoot (caf\u00e9, retail unit, gym studio) takes 2\u20134 hours on site. Larger venues such as hotels, car showrooms or universities take a half or full day. We deliver the live, hosted tour within 5\u201310 working days of capture.

How much does a 360\u00b0 virtual tour cost in the UK?

Pricing starts from around \u00a3300 for a small retail outlet, and scales based on the number of 360\u00b0 points captured, travel to your UK location, and whether you need Google Street View publishing, custom-hosted tour, or both. We shoot all shapes and sizes of business and offer a free quote on every project.

Do virtual tours improve Google Business Profile rankings?

Google Business Profiles with a published 360\u00b0 virtual tour typically receive significantly more customer interest than profiles without one \u2014 per Google's own internal data. Tours increase dwell time on your listing, signal to Google that the business is verified and active, and appear directly on Google Maps and Search.

Where in the UK does Trusted Photography work?

We cover the whole of the United Kingdom \u2014 all 51 English counties, plus Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Our HQ is in Long Eaton, Derbyshire, and our team travels UK-wide for shoots.

What types of business is a virtual tour good for?

360\u00b0 virtual tours work especially well for hotels and resorts, car dealerships, restaurants and caf\u00e9s, retail stores and showrooms, gyms and fitness centres, pubs and bars, property and estate agents, and universities and schools. Any business where customers benefit from seeing the space before they visit.

What's the difference between Google Street View and Matterport?

Google Street View tours are published directly to your Google Business Profile and Google Maps and are free to host. Matterport tours are hosted on Matterport's platform with a small ongoing subscription, but offer 3D walkthrough and floor-plan features. We offer both and can advise which suits your business.

Do you still publish to Google Maps now the Trusted Photographer programme has ended?

Yes. Google retired its formal Trusted Photographer programme, but the underlying ability to publish 360\u00b0 tours to Google Maps and Street View remains fully available via Google's Street View Studio. Trusted Photography has been publishing tours to Google Maps since 2012 and continues to do so today.
