As the Founder of Discover Live and a true wanderlust at heart, I am incredibly lucky to have one of the best jobs in the world. I get to travel the globe during the day and still be back in time for a cozy dinner with my family, while sharing my travel stories.

My passion for real-time world exploration runs deep, and I believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to experience the world and expand their knowledge. That's why I'm committed to making live, world travel experience accessible.

As the pioneers and experts of live, virtual, world travel, Discover Live has been virtually teleporting people to breathtaking destinations and events around the world since 2017. Our private, bespoke virtual travel experiences are the perfect way to gather with friends and family, or to impress corporate clients and colleagues.

I'm excited to introduce the Discover Live Marketplace — a new online marketplace where curious virtual travelers can join shared, immersive tours led by exceptional tour guides from around the world. Although this marketplace is only a few days old, we already have hundreds of travelers registered with us.

Hi Jason, thanks for sharing your virtual tour marketplace with Travel Massive.

Since you've been in the virtual travel business since 2017, how have you seen this style of travel evolve over the years? Obviously the technology is better and more people are familiar with online meetings, but have you seen other shifts in consumer behaviour? What's driving demand at the moment for virtual travel?

Cheers!

Hi Ian, thanks for the message and the wonderful questions!

From our experience, live virtual tourism has gained much more popularity over the past few years - technology advancements have made live virtual travel more accessible than ever before, and people are increasingly receptive to immersive "virtual" experiences. With the rise of remote work, more individuals are seeking ways to satisfy their wanderlust while staying connected to their professional lives. One remarkable aspect of live virtual tourism is its ability to level the playing field in the realm of exploration, attracting a new base of "travelers" who were previously unable to embark on physical journeys. Moreover, many tour guides have recognized the potential of offering virtual tours, enabling them to reach a wider customer base and generate additional streams of revenue.

Although live virtual tourism is still a relatively novel concept, its benefits become evident to many upon their first experience. The key challenge lies in spreading awareness about its existence. In our experience, once individuals grasp the idea, they quickly realize the multitude of advantages it offers and eagerly begin exploring its vast potential. In fact, some of our customers can take up to five minutes to fully comprehend the concept, but soon after that they eagerly want to experience a live virtual tour. Once they've had a taste of this unique form of travel, they become captivated and eagerly anticipate their next virtual adventure. Our near-perfect Net Promoter Score stands as a testament to their satisfaction and the allure of this new form of world exploration, surpassing industry benchmarks across various sectors.

Based on our experience, consumer behavior patterns indicate a growing demand for diverse and sophisticated virtual tours that cater to different objectives. Some individuals use virtual tours to scout new destinations as part of their in-person travel planning. Others seek to immerse themselves in foreign cultures or gain deeper insights into local customs. Many people use this unique experience to celebrate special occasions. There are also those who crave experiences they might otherwise find challenging due to financial, time, health, or visa restrictions (such as embarking on a multi-generational family trip to a destination of significant interests).

The continuous demand for virtual travel lies in the continuous awareness of this new form of world exploration and the boundless possibilities it presents. People are increasingly recognizing the power of live virtual tourism and how it can enrich their lives in myriad ways. In our opinion, the allure of exploring new destinations, experiencing diverse cultures, and transcending personal limitations without breaking the bank will continue to fuel the demand for live virtual travel and ignite the imaginations of many.

I'd be interested in hearing yours and others' thoughts.

Cheers!

Jason
