Living room of a gîte captured as a 360° virtual tour

Make your gîte or guest house stand out with a virtual tour

On the platforms, your gîte appears in the same template as all its competitors: the same listings, the same carousels, the same promises. A virtual tour breaks that endless scroll. Travellers step inside, move from the bedrooms to the garden and understand what your photos cannot say.

“Guests know exactly what to expect. There are no surprises when they arrive.”

  1. Travellers look around before they book

    Living room, kitchen, bedrooms, shower rooms, terrace, garden: visitors choose their own route and linger wherever they like.

  2. They understand the layout without asking ten questions

    Interconnecting or separate bedrooms, shared or private shower room: 360° navigation answers these questions on its own.

  3. They feel what makes your place charming

    Beams, exposed stone, the view from the bedroom: what sets you apart is discovered by moving around, not by scrolling through thumbnails.

Why choose a virtual tour for your guest house?

Make your listing stand out in the scroll

On the platforms, all listings look alike, and travellers end up comparing prices. So your place gets lost in the scroll, even when it is better than its neighbours. With a virtual tour, they step inside and linger in every room. Yours is the listing they remember.

Get guests to book direct on your website

The platforms limit what your listing can show and take a commission on every stay. So direct bookings stay rare, for lack of a reason to go through your website. With the full tour on your website, the traveller who wants to see everything comes to you and books with no middleman.

Build trust before payment

Booking a week in an unfamiliar place is a commitment, especially when paying in advance. So travellers hesitate and go looking for a place that feels safer. With a virtual tour, they know exactly where they will sleep, and they book with you without fear of a nasty surprise.

Your questions about virtual tours of gîtes and guest houses

Platforms, direct bookings, getting the place ready: the answers you need before arranging the capture of your accommodation.

  • How much does a virtual tour of a gîte or guest house cost?

    The amount depends on the floor area, the number of spaces, the outdoor areas and the options chosen. The agency in your area draws up a tailored proposal, free and with no commitment.

  • Can the tour be shown on booking platforms?

    It varies from one platform to another, according to its rules. On the other hand, the tour can be embedded without restriction on your website, your online business listing, your social media and your emails: the channels where direct bookings happen.

  • Do all the bedrooms need to be captured?

    It is recommended for a B&B, because it lets your guests choose their room with full knowledge. Scoping sets with you the spaces to show and those that stay private.

  • Does the tour also show the garden and outdoor areas?

    Yes, the tour can include the garden, terrace, pool or outbuildings when scoping allows for it. For holiday accommodation, the outdoor areas often clinch the decision.

  • What happens if I redecorate or carry out work?

    The tour can be updated. A new capture of the spaces concerned is enough to keep your showcase true to what guests will find. The terms are set out in the proposal.

  • Does a virtual tour help get better reviews?

    It contributes through a simple mechanism. Travellers who have seen everything book with the right expectations, and their arrival confirms what they toured instead of disappointing them.
